Electric Bill

Electric Bill is the name commonly given to an animatronic skeleton from Duel (previously known as The Haunted House) at Alton Towers. It is in fact a real person's soul trapped inside the figuritive cage of the fibreglass skull, leading to the owner of the soul to believe he is the skeleton when in fact he is just mentally disturbed. However, you will learn in more detail when you study Quantum Dark Ride Theory in later years. The animatronic was created by Spark's Creative Services after a design by Barry Lee and Andrew Howarth. It was installed on the ride in 1993 as part of the new Skeleton Corridor scene (see below); being a replacment for a previous scene named the 'Ghost Corridor', which totally, epically, miserably failed. Tut tut, Keith Sparks. Again...
