Trolls Trollercoaster, previously known as Woody Woodpecker's Nuthouse Coaster, is a Vekoma roller coaster currently located at Universal Studios Florida in Orlando, Florida, USA.

History

Woody Woodpecker's Nuthouse Coaster opened on March 13, 1999. The ride was originally themed to look like a fuel-powered train built by Woody himself.

On November 1, 2022, Universal Studios announced that the coaster would close along with most of the Woody Woodpecker's KidZone themed area on January 15, 2023.[1] The ride is currently standing but not operating and has been repainted.[2]

The coaster was announced to reopen in 2024, now named Trolls TrollerCoaster, as part of the new DreamWorks Land.[3]
