History
The Curse at Alton Manor is a redesign of interactive dark ride Duel, which was a in turn a revamp of The Haunted House (opened in 1992).
The attraction was designed between Adventure Design Co., Framestore and Merlin Magic Making. The AV content was produced by Conductr and music by IMAscore.
The character Emily Alton is inspired by an effect from the original Haunted House where guests would see a ghostly girl appear in a toy dolls house in the preshow. The ride includes multiple references to former Alton Towers rides.
