Description
Duel was an interactive haunted dark ride. Guests entered a spooky manor that was home to "Dr Roodyn" who had disappeared after supposedly re-animating dead bodies and his now overtaken by zombies. Guests boarded a ride car and were tasked with shooting targets to increase their score. The ride ended in a cellar overtaken by zombies holding laser guns.
History
The ride originally opened as The Haunted House in 1992 and was revamped with the new interactive game element in 2003, including the zombie theme overlay and the new final scene set in a cellar. The original zoned music was replaced with one track throughout the ride. The addition of laser guns reduced the capacity of each car from 6 to 5.
From 6 September 2022, Duel closed to be redesigned as The Curse at Alton Manor.
