The Premise:
The Sanderson Sisters have returned to Salem and are running “amuck” throughout the town. You and your friends find yourselves on a mission to stop the Sanderson sisters from brewing up a wicked brew to become young and beautiful.
Queue:
The ride queue begins in a spooky Massachusetts based forest. The pathway will be decorated with Halloween-themed props such as carved pumpkins, ghostly apparitions, and eerie sound effects to set the mood. The queue area will be dimly lit to create a spooky atmosphere.
As you come upon the Sanderson Sister’s house – now built for tours, you come across eerie lighting and a ghoulish soundtrack that sets the perfect spooky tone for the ride ahead. Once inside, you’ll be taken to a room where you will be able to see the prize jewels of the tour – the sisters’ spell book, black flame candle, and the cauldron.
As the tour attendant explains the significance of the book, the eye within the book starts to move. Though special effects, the museum glass covering the book is shattered, causing a panic in the museum attendant who flees the scene. The eye moves towards the position of the black flame candle, creating a special effects spark igniting the candle and bringing the Sanderson Sisters back, and watching as they escape.
Max returns late to save the day, but to catch the witches in time, He enlists your help while using the book to enchant the vacuums in the supply closet to catch the witches.
Ride:
As riders board the coaster, they will be seated in customized Vacuum-shaped ride vehicles, similar to Tron light cycle run. The ride will initially be slow-paced, taking riders through a dark and twisted forest filled with fog and ghostly apparitions.

As the coaster picks up speed, riders will experience sharp turns as they try to outrun the witches. The Sanderson Sisters will make various attempts to catch the riders throughout the ride, whether it be by flying on broomsticks or casting spells, which all result in fun, contemporary pop culture gags.
As you go end up in Salem’s karaoke bar, you’ll see an encounter with animatronics of the sisters themselves, as Winifred tries to deliver her infamous “I Put a Spell on You” rendition, which "casts a spell" on your vehicles and ends in a sudden drop
This then leads to a launch for the roller coaster element of the attraction (similar to TRON and Hagrids).
The ride will culminate in a grand finale featuring an animatronic of the Sanderson Sisters as they cast their final spell. Where at the Sanderson sisters’ cauldron, where you’ll watch as they mix together their potion, causing it to bubble and fizz before finally exploding in a spectacular display of special effects such as strobe lights, smoke, and lasers!
However, thanks to your bravery and quick thinking, the spell is reversed, and the witches are banished back to the netherworld once again.
