Eww, they were the ones responsible for the Battle of Cedar Point?

They were also responsible for Wicker Man's pre-show, so I wouldn't be too worried.

They've done a hell of a lot more than that - great company, great products.
We cannot forgive them for this sin! REPENT HOLOVIS REPENT!!!
... But in all seriousness, hadn't a clue how much project variety and depth they have covered across the amusement industry, such as Wicker Man or Mystic Timbers. Definitely gives a thumbs up for having some good, compelling theming.

They did a pretty good job on the A/V elements in TWD at Thorpe Park as well, given how small a project it was with a low budget. Great media, lighting and sound design throughout.

First (very brief) glimpse of the weirdly-purple snowmobile cars;

Apologies for the double post, but there's some construction of what looks like the entrance plaza;

Let's hope they cover up or hide that ugly blue/grey wall to the left. It really breaks the castle theme.

There was a media tour the other day, offering a look at the coaster's train on site. A limited time preview center also opened up over the weekend, running through the coaster's outdoor queue with information displays;
The park is also running a Darkoaster theme at their Bürgermeister’s Hideaway from March 2 to 22, so we could very well see an opening during that time.

So according to BGWFans this thing has begun testing indoors. May still be awhile until it opens since the intricate dark ride elements are also being worked on;
In the meantime the park has launched a poll asking for guests to name the two trains, with a selection of four callbacks to the deceased Curse of DarKastle;

I was at BGW a few days ago. Minor update: The sign has been installed and as far as I could spot the entrance area seems to be ready to go. Actually looks pretty good.

It looks cool and I like the theme and story behind it, but the name is so terrible. Someone clearly typed into ChatGPT dark roller coaster names... and Voila.

It’s actually a reference to the dark ride that formerly inhabited the building it’s in, Curse of DarKastle.
DarKastle, DarKoaster. You get the idea.
