Drop Tower: Scream Zone is a Drop Tower located at Kings Dominion in Doswell, Virginia, USA. There is a similar ride at Kings Island, but this one does not have a rotating feature. The ride opened as Drop Zone: Stunt Tower in 2003 and was themed to the 1994 Paramount film.
History
Construction of Drop Zone: Stunt Tower at Kings Dominion began in 2002. The attraction officially opened on March 22, 2003.[1]
On June 22, 2007, Cedar Fair closed down all five Drop Zone: Stunt Tower rides due to a major accident on Superman: Tower of Power at Kentucky Kingdom.[2]
The ride was renamed to Drop Tower: Scream Zone in 2008.
