Stellas Revenge was a steel roller coaster built by Italian manufacturer Interpark previously located on Clacton Pier in Clacton-on-sea, Essex, England, UK.
History
The coaster first opened at Barry Island Pleasure Park in 1996 under the name Viper.[1] In 2011 it was relocated to Clacton Pier, where it was named after the Steel Stella, a roller coaster which was destroyed by fire in 1973.
The roller coaster was dismantled in January 2020. At the time, the park stated it was in negotiations to sell the ride to a client in South America.[2] It will be replaced with the Looping Star which formerly operated at Codona's Amusement Park in Aberdeen, Scotland.
