The Curse at Alton Manor is a Mack Rides dark ride in Gloomy Wood built around the story of Emily Alton.
The Curse at Alton Manor turns the former Haunted House/Duel ride into a ghostly house visit built around Emily Alton. Slow-moving vehicles, sets, sound, lighting and practical effects tell the manor's story, shifting the focus away from interactivity and toward atmosphere and storytelling.
TowersTimes lists a Mack Rides dark ride, an opening date of 18 March 2023, 984 feet of track, six passengers per vehicle, 1,500 riders per hour and a ride time of 4 minutes. Coasterpedia also confirms Mack Rides and the tracked dark ride format, while outlining the shift from Haunted House to Duel and finally The Curse at Alton Manor. The ride revolves around Emily Alton and uses a preshow, projections, mirrors, practical effects and scenes inside the manor.
The story centres on Emily Alton and a Victorian manor where family history, doll imagery and ghostly effects come together.
The site opened in 1992 as The Haunted House, became Duel in 2003 with interactive laser shooting, and returned in 2023 as The Curse at Alton Manor.
The reboot goes for a classic haunted-house mood with Emily Alton at the centre of the story, turning the ride into more of a narrative experience than a game.
