Haunted Castle
Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, US
Haunted Castle at Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is a family dark ride below the Boardwalk, with Sally Corporation animatronics and hearse-style double-seat cars from I.E. Park. Riders load at street level and glide backwards down a spiral ramp haunted by floating ghosts into a basement of nearly 1,000 square metres. A castle storyline leads through swamp and graveyard scenes, with pop-up figures and a guillotine near the exit. It opened in June 2010 and stays scary without blood.
