I mean, she had such a huge impact in Haunted House and Duel. Pivotal almost.

Wonder if they'll include her disappearing and being replaced by "No signal" into the reimagining for real authenticity 😏

I'll apologise when Abdab is back in Terror/Forbidden Tomb being encased in an iron maiden with a rock opera going on in the background.

I can't fault your logic here, I have to say. Pleasantly surprised that Emily has become the main character - and quite intrigued as to what comes next!

They meant over the year, the year being 2023.

You could be onto something there - and now consider me even more concerned. As ML27 points out - starting to paint outside now, when in theory that could have started in November? I mean, it's as if they had no idea what to do with it and it took them most of closed season to figure out....

I normally do hold judgement. Only comparable project would be the Curse at Alton Manor. In terms of a retheme using the same equipment. However, this isn’t a project which meant that DBGT had to close early unlike duel. Theres been no teasers until the night before they announced it. It closed with literally nothing saying it was closing (duel had that sign at the end) only started painting the outside with a month to go and also the inside of the carriage is pretty hard to change because it’s a set ride vehicle and the track is only so many meters long. I can see it open with little fan fare (high striker level) and it be a thing which just simply *exists*

Eventually the effects will be turned off due to budget/maintenance issues. Get that real sensation of a 2002 ride on Haunted House.

Can everybody who was dubious about my hunch apologise? I have been saying for months that Emily Alton and Snowy have “repossessed” The Haunted House and ended the Duel. I am elated to hear Emily Alton has evicted the Zombies but I am proud to have proved the vast majority of the Thorpe Park Mania members wrong. In my soul I always knew Emily could conquer the Zombies it was only a matter of time. I cannot begrudge Emily for turning evil. I would be less than pleasant if some Zombies with guns broke in and squatted in my abode for 19 years. On a serious note which scenes do you expect to remain from the original Haunted House/Duel? I am expecting the Dining Room,Hall Of Spiders and Gholish Garden to be part of The Curse At Alton Manor. I think the Duck from The Flume may be included maybe they’ll be a pond in the Garden with the Duck on. Manor Houses do have ponds and very often Ducks inhabit them. I can confirm the carriages and ride system is 100% the same. If your being pedantic the Carriages have had the guns and scoreboards removed.. @Trooper Looper I think the ride will start of as Emily Alton being a sweet girl then she’ll turn sinister than at the last minute become nice. @Trooper Looper do you share my excitement on Alton Towers dedicating a ride to one of their best and underused characters.

Well shut my mouth and call me Emily, she is in the story. To celebrate, I've decided to finally update the thread title sensibly.
