Vampire
Make/ModelArrow Suspended Coaster
TypeSteel - Suspended
Year Built1990
at CWoA1990 to present

My first real rollercoaster and Europe's first swinging suspended rollercoaster. Back when it was built in 1990, riders took a trip through the graveyard of Count Dracula's castle and over the Transylvanian rooftops in bat themed cars. Following a year out of action the Vampire re-opened in 2002 with new floorless trains, achieving another first - the world's first swinging suspended floorless rollercoaster.
