    Description

    Black Diamond is a combination of a dark ride and a roller coaster. The ride features multiple levels and is entirely indoors. John C. Allen is the designer of the rollercoaster and not particularly the dark ride theming.

    History

    Black Diamond was moved to Knoebels from Dinosaur Beach (close to Morey's Piers), where it operated as Golden Nugget (1960-1998).
