Reaper, Drop ride to doom! is a steel enclosed roller coaster currently in storage at Solidum Staalbouw in Schuinesloot, Overijssel, Netherlands.

History

The ride originally opened at the Amsterdam Dungeon on 16 October 2005. It was located in the large chappel of the former church, and designed to fit the location. It acted as the final part of the dungeon experience, and was the only coaster in a dungeon attraction. It would eventually be closed on 5 January 2014 and sold to Henny van der Most. It was relocated and refurbished at his facility where it would be fully constructed on the property, most likely with the intention or reselling it. The ride wouldn't be sold however, and remains on the site.

Design

Elements

The ride featured a small show scene on its Turntable when at the Amsterdam Dungeon. It would turn towards the track first, before turning back to face a large church organ played by the grim reaper. This is when the reaper would proclaim the rider's time was up when the table turned back to the track, before sending the train down the 6.9 metres drop. This drop featured a trim brake.

Colour scheme

Black track and supports.
