Location
Exterior
Entrance
The roller-coaster is almost entirely outdoors, with the black track crossing over pathways. There are nets around the tracks.
During the ride, guests travel through a decrepit barn.
A sign outside the ride’s entrance reads, “Are you cursed? Ask Maleva Wolf-Seer for the Guild of Mystics.”
The queue is the Guild of Mystics camp, with two wagons framing the entrance. To the right is the height requirement post and a warning sign, which also displays the wait time.


At night, lights on the wagons illuminate, adding to the spooky atmosphere.
The wagon on the left features a Curse of the Werewolf sign with a detailed sculpture of a wolf.
Its mouth is open in a growl, and it clutches a large moonstone between its claws.
At night, the wolf’s eyes, the ride name, and the moonstone glow.
There is a test seat under the wagon’s red awning. Here, guests can test the ride’s restraints.
There is a standby queue, a single rider queue, and a Universal Express Pass queue.
Guests pass under an awning on the back of a wagon.
Queue
Outdoor Queue




The queue is mostly outdoors, surrounded by trees and shrubbery. Among the plants are banners that together read, “Even one who is pure of heart may become a wolf when the wolfsbane blooms and the moon is full and bright.”
A fortune teller’s table sits in front of a painted partition. Three silver moon and star decorations are on the partition, with large gems in their center.
On the table are tarot cards. The visible cards are The Beast, The Flower, The Mystic, The Moon, The Mark, The Carriage, and Strength.
Load Area
Another test seat is in the loading area. The ride vehicles resemble wooden carriages with wolf medallions on their sides.
A full moon peeks through the broken roof of the load building.
There are more colorful wolf medallions on the walls. Like those on the vehicles, they depict wolves running in front of stars. The edges of the medallion represent the ride’s spinning vehicles.
Ride Experience
The coaster takes guests into the wilderness as they are chased by wolves. For most of the coaster, you can hear wolves running and growling. When you move through the barn, they surround you, but they’re difficult to see in the daylight. Stay tuned for our night POV.
The ride ends with guests coming face to face with an accusatory Maleva ominously pointing at guests alongside a large tapestry reading, “Beware of the moon.”
