Heide Park in Germany will open the new dark ride Dämonen Gruft on March 29, 2024.

It is being described as Germany's scariest dark ride and has been under construction for around 15 months.

The new attraction will be located in the Transilvanien themed area of the park, next to the Flug der Dämonen wing coaster.

has teased:

After the ancient catacombs were discovered last autumn during excavation work at Heide Park Resort, northern Germany's largest theme park, dark secrets have been shrouded in mystery over the last few months about the "Katakomben Tour". The villagers living around the catacombs took many intrigued people underground, some of whom disappeared without trace and have still not been found despite extensive searches. Recently, an anonymous video of an unrecognisable person emerged under mysterious circumstances, warning against taking part in the supposedly harmless catacombs tour. Instead, it speaks of a "Dämonen Gruft" (Demon's Crypt). Gradually the suspicion strengthens that the catacombs tour is a terrible trap...
