𝐃𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭..there was a coaster in Amsterdam Dungeon? "Reaper, Drop ride to doom!"

Mack Rides, (model) E-Motion. (from 16-10-2005 to 5-1-2014) E-Motion means that the train hangs outwards in the bends. Only in The Dungeon had they locked in the E-Motion for the last year for a smoother experience.


The same type of coaster is called in Finland; 'Tulireki', Linnanmäki. (Helsinki, Finland)

The only differences are 'Reaper, Drop to Doom!' Had a vertical lift and a turntable and 'Tulireki' has a regular lift hill. The reason is that there was no normal lift hill in the Dungeon, it is because there was no place for a normal lift hill so they opted for a vertical lift.

The ride was located in a large show building that resembled a church. The funny detail is that; the coaster is a family coaster. And also in terms of theming it shouldn't be too scary for children. And that in a Horror Museum.


On February 10 and 11, 2008 the 25 hours on the coaster took place in the Amsterdam Dungeon. That was partly set up by; Yolande Blei, Niels de Vries, and Johan Vlemmings. The three of them went into 25 hours on the 'Reaper, Drop ride to doom!'

Johan Vlemmings went on the rides for 25 hours in a chicken suit. This was in collaboration with; 'Stichting wakker Dier' ('Awake Animal Foundation') and 'Coaster Place.'

And what is now on the spot where the coaster stood is unknown.
