    The harsh truth...

    Hi all, I don't post here often but when I stayed in the Alton Towers Hotel recently, it got me thinking and I need to share my experience with you all. I've been a ride enthusiast since 2010, but visiting Alton Towers since birth! I've never got the opportunity to stay in the Alton Towers...

    Galactica: General Discussion

    I also got requested to remove my glasses on Th13teen the Thursday before Easter Bank Holiday, the first time I've ever got asked to remove them which is very odd! I wonder if something has happened? Personally I took my glasses off for Galactica which I thought was no use at all because my eye...

    2016: The Smiler Reopening

    I feel like the theme will be watered down alot, the key focus of The Smiler will be the worlds first element. I can see alot of the things (including merchandise) replaced with references to the inversions instead of the correction theme. It'll be disappointing if they do, and I hope I'm...

    2016: Air - Re-theme to VR Coaster - Galactica

    I always thought one of Air theories is that it is a space airport? Guess they're just for-filling that theory now. ;) The website & promotional materiel is of high quality, I love the new mini site created for it. I'm very excited about this, I think it's been long overdue for some good news...

    Rollercoaster Restaurant: General Discussion

    Regarding the logo, it seems to be the brand logo as seen on this website, all of the rollercoaster restaurants have followed this logo. http://www.rollercoasterrestaurant.com/en/ Having given a quick glance over the menu, it certainly seems lunch will be served between the Theme Park hours...

    2015: Alton Towers Enchanted Village

    I wasn't aware that the lodges close during closed season? Was this something that was always planned or..?

    2016: Air - Re-theme to VR Coaster - Galactica

    Just a thought... If VR is what's happening on Air, that may explain the mid queue photo experience. Because obviously if Air does have VR, the on-ride photo will be useless & Picsolve need their profit... I'm in two minds, the VR aspect seems interesting and certainly marketable, but a high...

    Scarefest 2015

    Just a thought... During Scarefest, they re-name the hotels (ATH = The Witches Haunt Inn & SLH = Patches Pumpkin Pad) and theme them to Halloween, do you think Alton has anything planned for the Enchanted Village? I hope so... It would look amazing to see the village all decorated for...

    X-Sector Developments (Including Oblivion)

    Can someone confirm or deny if Alton have changed the lift chain on Oblivion? Yesterday it sounded so much more quiet and didn't not feel clunky at all! As for the rest? Fantastic! The Smiler really doesn't get in the way of Oblivion imposing look, and with it being black now, twice as...

    Wearing Glasses At Parks

    I wear my glasses pretty much 24/7, I do take them off on every ride! (Apart from the family ones though I did get asked once to remove my glasses on Ben10 before! ::)) I take a glasses case with me and put my glasses in there and then into the bag to save them from getting crushed but it can...
