Hi Princess, ...there is already simulated thunder and lightning on the Haunte Hotel giving it the effect that it is presented in a stormy eerie environment....it was also great to see all the special effects on the inside ...I especially enjoyed the electric chair and the granny on a walker moving forward without legs....I have also heard that L&L are putting together a brand new Ghost House type ride called 'HAUNT'....I can't wait!!!

hey guys

its a pity that a certain other zipper that is owned by a another showmen
didn't do the ekka as i believe his zipper would have kicked arse . the zipper that was at the ekka was ok its DEFINANTLY not the best ive been on it was really rough and didnt flip very much compared to the other 2 zippers that travel doing the final of the lower QLD run.The particular zipper that i like did another country carnival on the g.c. in Qld and i believe it kicked arse and would've done better. i cant wait to ride it at the G.C. Show

Yes, it is an awesome model. I have to ride it every time I see it. I think it should be doing more royals

If you go to south australian travelling rides, there has been a list posted by Scorpian, who has also been past the grounds and already reported on what is there already.
