More than Wicked: Lagoon focuses on its darker side
Source: Farmington Star News 1 March 2007
As if a brand new $10 million coaster wasn't enough, Lagoon is also making extensive improvements to the park's darker side this year.
The park announced through its website today that Dracula's Castle and Terroride are both undergoing changes. From the photos posted on the official site, the work being done seems very promising. It is unknown at this point what features of the dark rides are being replaced or repaired.
The pirates and wenches over at Tidal Wave aren't being left in the dust either. The entire ride is said to have been completely dismantled and is being thoroughly repainted as it is rebuilt. The changes are planned to be ready for opening day on April 7th.
Many park visitors will be glad to see Lagoon is giving these rides the attention they deserve. Good dark rides are very hard to come by these days as more and more disappear because of poor maintenance. Terroride will be forty years old this season. Dracula's Castle was added in 1974 and Tidal Wave arrived in 1980.
