Ghost Hunt is a Tracked Dark Ride designed by Sega AM5 previously located at SegaWorld London in Picadilly Circus, London, England, UK.
History
Ghost Hunt was one of the many installments of Sega's large-scale attraction Ghost Hunters, combining a traditional Ghost Train ride with augmented reality and shooting elements. It was one of SegaWorld London's opening-day attractions.[1][2]
Its fate after SegaWorld's closure is unknown. After the park was merged into Funland, a Ghost Train attraction opened on site in 2001. It is unknown if this was the same attraction or a new one outright.
Format
The ride consists of sixteen ride vehicles with light guns and perspex shields, each seating two guests. As the ride moves, guests use the light guns to shoot CGI ghosts that are showcased on the screens as quickly as possible. The shields also project augmented reality illusions to set the theme of the ride. Defeating the final boss allows a camera inside the ride to take a picture of the riders, which they would be able to take home as souvenirs.
