- [4K] Ghost Castle (Geisterschloss) is an awesome haunted house omnimover dark ride at Europa Park in Germany. This ride also has stretching room pre-show just like the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland and at other Disney parks around the world.
For more info and tickets, please visit their official website: www.europapark...
Ride filmed November 2022 at Europa Park in Rust, Germany.
this is kinda like if someone went on the haunted mansion once 10 years ago and trying to explain the whole thing by memory
Lol I was thinking the same thing. Like if some man rode haunted mansion and decided they wanted to try to remake it but had a much smaller budget and had forgotten the details
@@matthewgordon799 it's a shame that a classic Ride Like the Haunted Mansion suffers from many ripoffs
Although they clearly “borrowed” ideas from another well know ride and the theming is all over the place, still looks like an entertaining ride. It’s better than most boardwalk and carnival Haunted House rides.
OK yeah the stretching room and ride vehicles are completely the same and while it's not as cool as Disney's haunted mansion, this still looks preety sick, I liked the more gory and tone this one had, and I would like to ride this one day.
They also did the "lower budget" version of the ghosts waltzing room (without peppers ghost trick), and the projected faces on the singing statutes... Some of the rooms were too cluttered, and it suffers from inconsistent theming - what story is this ride telling? No idea. Some nice tricks and sick layout though.
@@matthewteague288 I agree they really packed a lot in each room. It looks too cluttered.
This ride feels like it was designed by someone who had Phantom Manor @ Disneyland Paris explained to them very thoroughly, but the explanation was delivered via can-and-string phone and the listener was on cocaine.
The caller was also on cocaine. As was both cans.
LMFAO
This ride is older than Phantom Manor and Disneyland Paris. Opened 1982. But of course still inspired by Haunted Mansion.
They took the best of Haunted Mansion, Phantom Manor and classic haunted house scares and made this masterpiece. I love it! 😂❤
Gives me some Pirates of the Caribbean vibes too (especially the guy at the beginning), also the doom buggies look more like the little mermaid omnimover shells haha
"A masterpiece" this is a joke, right? ........RIGHT?!!?!?
Couldn't pull off the pepper's ghost so they just showed the real thing haha
"We have Haunted Mansion at home."
The Haunted Mansion at home:
The whole Europa Park is basically inspired by Disney parks. This is just one of them. They have great coasters though and the park has it's charm but yeah you immediately can tell they got inspired by Disney.
Damn, what a shame... there's obviously a lot of production value behind this and tons of potential. But instead of designing something fresh and new, they just completely and blatantly ripped off Disney with nothing to add to it. Imagine if they took all these resources and tried to create instead of imitate.
Well considering how many times Disney ripped others off, it's time the same was done to them.
Well, keep in mind this ride is 40 years old, back when the park had just started out. They've now built many high quality darkrides, like pirates in batavia, the most recent addition (which is obviously inspired by Pirates of the Caribbean, but follows a very different storyline and aesthetic) or the can can coaster, which - while found inside a huge epcot like ball, is actually a rollercoaster instead of a darkride like the original in epcot.
Lol they didn't even try to hide all the Disney haunted Mansion references. A cool ride though.
The whole park is heavily influenced by Disney, down to the mascot :P
Man, when people copy Disney poorly, it only emphasizes how incredible Disney innovates
This ride has some sexy beautiful details all over ,since the whole ride has different lighting. Wow. Wish haunted mansion at Disney would be fully immersed with extra extra details. So much emptiness when the lights are on
The highest budget low budget Disney knockoff if I ever seen one. I want to ride it!
No worries guys, Europa-Park fans know this is a horrible Disney Knock-off, but it's quite a guilty pleasure anyways. Bitte bitte
I still enjoyed it very much
- American who has been on the Disney version
I'm actually impressed with the quality for not being Disney
@@SandraSouper Ahahaha it's fine, but European non-Disney parks have a lot more to offer of course!
Disney needs to learn from other parks instead half work on the cheap on everything
this is our german disneyland.
For all people wondering: This Haunted Mansion is located at Europapark, Germany, and currently gets a completely new makeover. It will open again this month.
I love Geisterschloss for what it is and i always go on there first whenever i visit but it reminds too much of Haunted Mansion, Phantom Manor. It could really use a renovation and a story.
Always nice to ride GeisterSchloss. I like the new animatronic , near the beginning.
The ride looks better in this video than in real life. But there‘s one thing that could can easily see: it‘s completely overloaded and the animatronics are lame. There’s been rumors for years now that they are planing a complete makeover.
What a rip-off. That said, I never tire of ghost trains, no matter how shabby. And this one is pretty impressive, actually. Maybe not too original -- but this is the case with many, many haunts.
This ride is so creepy, the ugly animatronics make this experience terrifier with potential to destroy any memory somebody has from Disney's Haunted Mansion
This is my favourite haunted house in Germany with the Geister Rikscha in Phantasialand
Beautiful 😍
OMG I LOVE love LOVE love this ride! Europa park will be a must do. Of course CAN CAN. But this takes the cake. It is like... home made Haunted Mansion and it is awesome! Love the spiral up scene! What a weird stretching room. Love the loading. It looks far more compact than Haunted Mansion. Even door knockers. And singing busts! YES!
While i really like the Ghost Castle in Europa Park, i think it desperately needs an overhaul.
Recently they added so much stuff that the ride doesn´t feel inconsistent with it´s own theme.
For example they added this guy at 1:29. Before that it was an terrifying "Facility Manager" with it´s old dog barking, which fits way better then this puppet. Also i think that all these added Monitor stuff like you see at 2:18 is often questionable. The Sorcerer at 4:28 was originally at the queue at 0:10. Now there´s a .... "Pirate" for unknown reasons. But i think that has something to do with the Pirate Ride burned down and they had this puppet left from it.
Europa Park has some of the best rides in terms of themes from any theme parks (well, from the ones i know), but this ride here feels sometimes out of place.
I still love it!
The pirate in the queue is newly made for Geisterschloss, it is not left over from piraten
It looks more wonderfully spooky and fun than scary, it's taken a lot of inspiration from the haunted mansion but it's still a good ride
2:15 this sound effect... The scream! I KNOW THIS SCREAM... I NEED TO KNOW THE SOURCE BECAUSE IT'S STOCK! I know this from Knoebels as well! XD! Great video :D
I see they took some of Disney's Haunted House Ideals
This reminds me of the videos of people trying to build roller coasters in their back yards.
They could almost claim that it's merely took inspiration from the Haunted Mansion. But the Stretching Room completely ruins all credibility to that claim.
Nice very good
ur right and it also copies merlins mansion and houdinis great escape
How has Disney not sued these guys?
That’s what I’m wondering too because they ripped off so many ideas from Disney’s haunted mansion
This is actually very scary
Still looks fun though 😂
Wish version of the Haunted Mansion 😆
👍🧟🧟
it looks like stretching room than disneyland
Copyright Schmoppy-rite!!! WHO needs 'em?!!
The opening has to be copyright infringement, right? I mean, it's the exact same thing.
That’s what I’m wondering it’s gotta be some kind of copyright infringement
Keep in mind that this attraction is 40 years old
Damn, 40 year-old. That ride look much younger and it doesn't look bad
4:08 - Professor Botox... 🤣🤣🤣
What's the name of the song? 👀
When you order Disney rides from Wish
Is this filmed with the a7siii from sony ?
Definitely the Force Awakens of haunted rides. A poor copy of the original, but I liked it.
これ、ホーンテッドマンションのパクリだね。
They total ripped off hunted mansion
This is the problem with haunted castle dark rides. They all copy those same gags and ideas from each but not considering if they make sense. The haunted mansion works because it’s consistently trying to keep the same theme.
Creepy
It's the same thing give it the nightmare before christmas overlay and you got the whole thing
I know Europe has amazing horror stories. Germany has the darkest children's stories that they can easily implement. "The Marksman", "The Pied Piper of Hameln", "The White Woman", the original GERMAN VERSION of the "Sorcerer's Apprentice", "The Golem", etc. The original Haunted Mansion and Phantom Manor had a narrative about the previous owners and how they died, and the ride incorporated that story. This felt like a poor copy with a random assortment to differentiate itself ENOUGH from the originals.
What an awful stealing of ideas and copy from Disney's Haunted Mansion! Moreover, it is done in an awful way in which the effects are terrible and have no match to what Disney's Imageneering staff achieved. I am not from the USA and I am not an especially Disney company fan, but one must acknowledge this is probably a copyright infringement and on top of that awfully performed.
No ghost pepper?
why is this attraction very different than the original haunted mansion?
Disney rip off but still enjoyable!
Oh dear….
Complete with the COPYCAT stretching room, but without "Your cadaverous pallor betrays an aura of foreboding" and no Grimm Grinning Ghosts
CZcams,Eure Werbung geht mir nicht ab und sie funktioniert auch nicht,ich schaue und höre grundsätzlich weg und kaufe diese beworbenen Produkte nicht
I think Disney is going to sue somebody lol they stole ideas from Disney’s haunted mansion and ripped them off
The most scary darkride is actually living and witnessing the last three years of existence.
But the most horrifying part is the worst to come.
I would predict yes.😨😨😨😨
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍👍
Disney's Haunted mansion done cheap !
why does the queue have like...animated portraits from that AWFUL "monster family" netflix movie???
What a blatant Disney rip off. It just goes to show how incredible the Disney ones are, even when they are a lot older than this one with older technology.
It’s incredible what was stolen from disney
What a confusing mess - how hard is it to come up with your own ideas without shamelessly ripping off Disney?
1:42 no way its joe biden!
Ghost Castle Dark Ride is a bad Disney ride ripoff
What a bad Disney Ripoff
ohio mansion
Ashamed !
Failed plagiarism with additional German vulgarity!!
Bad ........
This is 40 years old after all, I think its nice they're keeping it up instead of just shutting it down and replacing it. The park has built much nicer original modern attractions since.
ホーンテッドマンションのパクリ？
Wtf is this?
Cheap ripoff.
