A demonic journey you will live to tell the tale!
The Demon promises you the ride of your life, and you have accepted the challenge of this adventurous trip. Originally called Turn of the Century, this high-speed looping coasting was one of the first roller coasters in the world to feature a double corkscrew. You start out on the train like most roller coasters, but soon realize that this terror is not your ordinary ride — or your friend. On this 2,130-foot-long devil, you immediately shoot through a dark tunnel heading toward a bright light, and are immediately thrust upward, climbing higher and higher up 10 stories. Suddenly without warning, you blast forward, down a steep drop and around a fierce loop.
This monster jets you through a series of treacherous-looking rock walls, over, and around another terrorizing vertical loop. As you pick up momentum, you’ll zoom through a deep rock cave lined with colored lights that blindingly flash and streak as you pass through, making you feel a little lightheaded as you rush by at 45 miles per hour.
Before you know it, you are skyrocketing forward through cave after cave and whipping around two corkscrew loops before coming to the end. Now you can say you’ve fought the haunting spirits of the Demon.
