Walibi Holland Vlog October 2023 - Halloween Fright Nights

[@robflel]

Is there anything more British than this: Pirate: ‘Every bubble contains a child’s Soul’ Shawn: ‘Oh right!’ I can hard relate mate haha.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

😂

[@julianhettich6370]

The clinic and the slaughterhouse are by far the best scare experiences I've ever seen. So unique! It's a shame that you didn't see the clinic though. In my opinion it's even better.

[@hiimhorse2375]

Love that you put in the older POVs - thank you for that! Makes the viewing experience better for sure.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you!

[@ryandavies388]

"Shame it rides like a shopping trolley" That is a belter of a description!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was awful 😂

[@iflymusic4862]

Hi! really nice video again :). Fun fact about Lost gravity. When it just opened it actually used to come to a near complete standstill before the first inversion which made the hang time incredible and the ride even better. However, after a few trains did not make it back into the station they increased the speed unfortunately! If you watch a video of when it just opened you can clearly see this!

[@Kryomaxim]

Was at Walibi Fright Nights last thursday. I can really recommend doing The Clinic, it was my most adrenaline-heavy horror experience I have ever done. On the other hand, Slaughterhouse was also pretty spooky, but I had lots of laughter after I completed it.

[@thomasmichaels1671]

Hey Shawn, after seeing your reaction to condor, would actually be pretty interested in seeing your personal ranking of worst SLCs or worst coasters you've ridden!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Now that would make a good video!

[@clairparsons2468]

Condor had got to be the worst rollercoaster I have ever been on. Far rougher than infusion even with the new trains. My chest felt so crushed by the time i got off. Never again! Your explanation of the slaughter house is so good. This is what makes your channel so great, even when you can't film inside scare attractions or even coasters your explanations are so good! You would never ever get me in the slaughter house 😂

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s absolutely awful! Thank you!

[@jarodemoor7110]

​@@ThemeParkWorldwideI agree but it depends on what seat you are in! I hated it but in the backseat i felt absolutetly nothing and enjoyed it!

[@CoastingwithLucy]

56:28😭😭😭 that was so funny

[@RollerCoaster_Central]

untamed looks absolutely insane! hope you had a nice time :)

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s an epic coaster!

[@Fuzz82]

I rode the Condor when it was new, and still had a much more bulky non cushioned harness. It almost gave me cauliflower ears. And my shorter friend literally had two bumps on her head from being thrown around. It makes you wonder how it even got past safety tests.

[@gladtobeangry]

And that's why we prefer Efteling. When Efteling tries to improve an old and shaky but fan-favourite Vekoma, they go all out and retrack the whole thing until it's the smoothest old Vekoma out there. When Walibi tries to improve an old and much maligned Vekoma, they just throw a couple of new restraints on the train, and consider it a job well done. There's just very different levels of care and love in the development teams of these parks. At Efteling, it's a lifelong passion to create the best experience possible on every level. At Walibi, it's just a paycheck at the end of the month, and as long as it doesn't fall apart, there's no need to fix anything.

[@bcfcrobins9501]

Rubber dinghy rapids bro! Fast track!

[@Rcthans]

This is the one I was waiting for for years. But still watching so my resoponse tba

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Enjoy!

[@Rcthans]

Great vlog guys, this event is something special. Making up for a slow season every year. That's why they do let in a lot of people. But in my opinion it's the nr1 Halloween event in themepark world atm. Glad you guys enjoyed it!

[@decadentdevil]

Sending love to everyone 💕💕💕

[@CoasterRob]

45:46 you was quick to get that stamp off your head 😂😂😂😂😂

[@TommyBoy84]

Im from the Netherlands and is see my self in the video and my parents😂

[@michaelbarnes4923]

Slaughterhouse sounded very interesting. Knowing what I'm like I'd have probably laughed all the way round nothing really scares me anymore 😆 glad you had fun though

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was such a crazy experience!

[@ChelseaMLarkin]

I love it when they get a screamer 😂😂😂😂 x

[@jordyvelthuizen5766]

I had one scare at final slayride when the grinch came out but yeah bit tacky my favorite is still the villa from the haunted houses below from the experience and from the walkthrough wicked woods

[@simongroenendijk34]

I visited the park just a day before you guys! Glad you enjoyed the fright night activities at my home park.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was great fun!

[@jarno_7857]

1:00:40 This was an old maze which is reused one final time because the new coasters will be build in that place. It was shut for the last few years so they changed it to reopen it for this year. This is probably the reason that it felt a bit cheap since it is just for one year. The previous version was also a lot better but i found it still good fun hahaha. Nice vlog, love to see you having a good time at the halloween event of my homepark! A big recommendation for you next visit is the clinic! I find that experience more scary, but slaughterhouse is more intense with touching.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for watching!

[@xdgamer6955]

YAY I'm early I love your vlogs you guys are very underrated I love your videos keep up the great work

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you!

[@danivankruysdijk3521]

I loved the video! I’ve actually visited Walibi Halloween Fright Nights last saturday, I loved it! To my opinion is The Clinic the most extreme of all the experiences, houses etc. Hopefully you will try that one next year!

[@kodoku_opia]

21:07 charlotte, about the new kondor trains: I THINK THIS IS WORSE 💀

[@martin.dehaan]

Lost Gravity (and also Condor) does not have the great lighting & sound package this year because they save it for their new "Bright Nights" winter opening. I was a bit disappointed too to see it was all pretty dark. Great that you loved the event, I can't wait to see what you think about the Toverland Halloween event 🙂

[@olibonser9592]

@martin.dehaan do you know if any rides are closed during the winter opening days? In particular will untamed be open in December? Thanks 😄

[@martin.dehaan]

@@olibonser9592 I'm not sure but the site says most rides will be open, but some can close due to bad weather

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for sharing!

[@julianhettich6370]

Yeah I was pretty disappointed as well :( that felt like a huge downgrade. Back in 2021 they also had a short synchronized light show every few minutes. Hope they expand the street entertainment again next year!

[@JuliusKoster]

@@olibonser9592 last year bright nights, only lost gravity and drako where closed, untamed should be open

[@bowsersean8098]

I found it funny when Charlotte screamed and moaned on the ride at 26:34

That sky looks very dark 😂🎉❤😊

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was a wet start!

Some fantastic inuendos after that crazy chair maze review 😂

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was madness 😂

[@CoasterTopia]

I love Condor so much, it doesnt hurt anymore these days and when I ride it all the shaking just makes me burst into hysterical laughter 😂 I wish more people had the abilty to find the enjoyment out of Condor that I find.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

We really didn’t enjoy it at all 😂

[@davidvanvugt6613]

are you on drugs or something ? that was even bad then before #rammelkar

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s an epic event!

[@julianlausberg7507]

They are putting a new coaster at the building of the last slay ride so this is the last year of that haunted maze. Before it was themed as Haunted Holidays and there was much more theming inside. (Single rail coaster).

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Looking forward to the new coasters!

[@themeparkedup6133]

Looks Great! Hope you had a fantastic time! 😊

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

We really enjoyed it

[@FingerTriggr]

condor is my favourite, its the complete experience

[@chipdale490]

Being the the original SLC, Condor deserves the Great Nor'easter treatment by Vekoma. IMHO.

[@oscarmorris6736]

So sorry for the rain my friends, you both seem to be making the most of your trip. Always love Halloween in Europe a part from the rain, so fun. We traveled to Utah, just rode Primordial at Utah's Lagoon Shawn. I must say, this Dark Ride needs your eyes my friend. It's next next level, bucket list this one. It's over four minutes of coaster/dark ride perfection. Utah is one you may consider flying in and out to do. I thought you might rent a car and drive up and west to Silverwood Theme Park in Idaho and tour RMC while there but that's a 10.5 hour drive. Silverwood Theme Park is a beautifully cared for family owned and operated park with very close ties to RMC. From Idaho you could fly to Oakland and finally visit Great America and Discovery Kingdom and then drive down to SOCAL for Magic Mountain, Knotts, Disney, and SeaWorld

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

That sounds great!

[@jackslater3793]

Looks crazy great vlog Shawn

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I love your content so much and also I’ve never seen a wooden coaster with inversions 😃

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you 😂

[@punkykarooney2912]

Wow 😱😱😱😱 you looked really overwhelmed after being in that scary house attraction Shawn I need to ask were those animals models made to look realistic? I used to love Halloween 🎃 👻 when I was your age but not so much now especially considering my serious health conditions with these intensive scare attractions blimey 😱😱😱😱 good to see you enjoying yourself, what’s that red huge round patch on your head

[@RazorBeatz]

I can also highly suggest doing Below and Explhorror aswell next time. Those are not as extreme as the clinic & slaughterhouse but do be really amazing haunted houses

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for sharing!

[@kierancalverley220]

That ride on Condor was really entertaining, even if it was unbearable 😂

It was awful 😂

Amazing Vlog from Walibi holland great seeing your Reaction to their halloween Fright night event include your Reaction Shawn to Slaughterhouse

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you. It was a crazy experience!

[@patriciadeboer]

51:49 The reason why they havent brought back the laser ''show'' at Lost gravity is because in the past years, there were huge amount of people stopping on the path to look at/film the lasers and jamming the crowd flow, with as result that it took people 10 to 15 minutes to get from the festival of freaks entry path /point to toilet building point next to the Clinic.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for sharing!

[@Coaster_Crazy]

Omg that Halloween event looks incredible, possibly one of the best I’ve ever seen, puts the UK events to shame

[@Spiritwonder420]

Ye but i don't know how its in uk.but this event is extremely exspensive if you want to do everything

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was amazing to experience!

[@Bertato]

I honestly really enjoyed condor, I even did it twice

[@johnmg88]

Is there a Vekoma hanging coaster that isn't a boneshaker? We were leaving wonderland about to go home, we passed Flight deck with a zero queue time and faced with the choice between a second concussion or just getting to the airport early we chose the airport.

I went to walibi for the first time 3 week ago. I will never go in Condor again, what a hellish ride. I had the feeling I was going to be paralized getting out of there 😅.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s so bad!

[@rikspector]

Shawn and Charlotte, Do you know how you can tell if your in trouble on "Goliath'? When the lights on the beginning ramp have vultures perching on them:) That park and the rides are fun in spite of the gloom. Enjoy! Cheers, Rik Spector

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Goliath is such a great coaster

[@natashabolton2338]

Planning go universal stuidos in nov :) cant wait for time :] great vlog :] keep it up 🙃💙

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Have fun!

[@BoG_City]

For how much Walibi misses in theming of the rides for the most part they really make up for with Halloween. The Fright Nights are really great quality and have been for decades now. But they let way to many people in the park which makes it less enjoyable for me. I dont mind a bit of a crowd but with Fright Nights it is too busy everywhere. But yeah, the quality and the actors and the theming is absolutely amazing

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Definitely agree with this! We had such a great time discovering all of this for the first time!

[@sannekohlen9691]

The lighting at lost gravity is gone to get better flow through that area. It was horrible before to get through because everyone would stand and watch. Kinda sad you didn’t do explhorror, it’s only there this year because of the new coasters and it was incredible!

You only go on Condor for the coaster credit. Condor is the worlds first Vekoma SLC ever made (a prototype). The ride has always been this way

In this vlog, we share on ride povs from Lost Gravity, Untamed, Goliath, and many more awesome coasters. We also ride the brand new family coaster including on ride footage! Along with that we enjoy the various different scare zones and mazes on offer for Halloween. Shawn also experiences the scariest Halloween attraction he’s ever done, the slaughterhouse! keep the good videos coming on the channel, Shawn and Charlotte. 😀😀👍👍

Untamed is by far and away my favourite coaster in the world. The only other one that comes close is Voltron.

Like #281; great vid as always and congrats on the You Tube plaque.

[@DrVagax]

Something you hopefully haven't experienced much, but the Fright Nights are also infamously known to attract really bad crowds, the hang youth kinda crowds who occasionally start to harass the scare actors or fight other guests. Been there twice but a few moments in those two days kinda ruined it, it is also extremely crowded at some points. That said, the theming, experiences, rides, atmosphere and overal setup is of world class during the fright nights.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

That’s very sad to hear!

[@jamesabbott5242]

Awesome Video Guys 😄😄

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks!

[@mariekeloveluuk]

Just after opening, in 1995 a Dutch tv crew decided to film in El Condor and the 2 hosts had to ride the coaster 9 times in a row to get the shots filmed. They were quite happy to get out!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I can imagine that!

[@Amusementnational]

Kondor looked horrific 😂. With any original coaster type, there is going to be things to improve on. I heard that the rollover on kondor was profiled completely wrong. It looks the same but the half loops were far too tight. The thought of an SLC is bad enough, let alone being the prototype 😬

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It really wasn’t great at all!

[@kyzer1996]

Was that a mascot beside you before you got on the orange and green coaster?

[@JoGirly22]

I would be happy to never go on that again, was almost what I said when I came of off Condor. I hadn't been on it for over a decade and it was not the coaster I had been excited for all day (yes, at some point in time it was an enjoyable ride). In another decade Ill come back for Untamed, hoping it will still be as good as I remember it now.

[@N2O27]

Hi Shawn, quick one, The Ride Condor (Vakoma) like Fusion, would you say that the ride is rough for the reasoning of the wheels (side ones) are not connecting to rails properly. You can see they are not touching and spaced like Fusion. Its a shame as they are building one like this in Ireland.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It was very rough. The ride in Ireland is a new generation and will be much better!

[@rfastravers8841]

New Vekoma is not old Vekoma. Ireland is getting a clone of Halss-uber-Kopf, which is one of the smoothest, if not smoothest coaster I ever had the pleasure of riding.

Funfact about the queline of XPress. This used to be a old haunted house from years ago. Houses like Alice in Horrorland used to be there.
