This is an absolute classic. The fact that a movie(although a bad movie) was made about this ride should explain that. This ride is pretty scary to young kids. My 4 and 7 year olds were mildly scared, not to the point where they would scream or cry just want to hold on to you tighter. And that is the point to this ride, it is not meant for adults to go in and get scared. The whole area has great theming and is just beautiful. The different cheesy effects make it fun for adults. The music has that gothic, translyvania bite to it that gives it something extra. Very few rides changed the theme park industry, this is one of them. This was a ground breaking ride when built and should be respected as such. It is not perfect by any means, but it is fun for the family. That is what Walt wanted.
