Alien Encounter is this show-type attraction in WDW where you sit in a small theatre with a circular shape, and in the middle there is this big alien robot in a glass tube, and suddenly the lights flicker out and when they come back on, the glass is broken and the alien is nowhere to be found. Then the lights flicker off again and in the dark, you can hear the alien walking around the room and there are lots of special effects to make you feel like it is touching you. Meanwhile you can hear some actors voices instructing you not to panic, but it doesn't help. I was freaking out.

I'm going to Vegas next weekend and I very well could be coming back saying that X-Scream is the scarriest ride.
I'll let you all know

Hmm, I can't think of any really, but Im guessing Im going to have to supress some serious fear for MF and TTD when I go to cedar point because heights aren't exactly my thing, I mean, I did like Steel Force at Dorney, but I was still nervous in line and stuff/freaked out, plus those 2 at CP are very different. I must go on them though. Personally Im more of a looper/woody kind of person, I have to get into hypers more! Also, hearing many people state MF and TTD have been the scariest coasters doesn't help lol...is there a sure way of sucking up fear??

I think that I'd have to say the Robin side of B&R: TC, if only because it had been some time since I'd been on a launch, the looks of the folks getting off the ride were pretty crazy, and that I'd just eaten a rather un-tasty egg roll. I seriously thought I'd be sick, but the moment the launch started out, I was totally in love with that coaster. Other than that, just waiting in line itself for MF was insane. I was almost petrified, but like with Robin, I fell in love with it instantly upon riding it.

I don't know, that promo video (which is no longer on the Stratosphere website) from opening day was pretty insane

The scariest ride ever is Expedition Ge-Force. After downloading the video from Theme Park Review, I INSTANTLY booked a flight to Germany. It's one of the scariest rides ever.

It's fun, but the first drop is terrifying.

Im going with ToT as the scarriest ride, and the only time I was a little anxious about a coaster was going up the lift on X. My heart was racing in anticipation of what was to come.

The first time I rode Millennium Force I was terrifed. Having never been on a coaster this high, fast, and steep I was a little aprehensive. Going up the lift hill didnt really help either. It was so fast and quiet and steep that it caught me off guard, plus I was sitting on the left side and looking straight down for some reason. My heart was pounding so fast right before we went over the first hill. After we went down the first hill I dont really remember much, but I was glad that I went on it. Sense then Ive been on it a couple more times and truly got to take it in and enjoy the ride, but it still scares me lol.

the most scared ive been in the last ten years was drop zone at pki. Since im not a hauge fan of heights or towers this had a loit of fear for me. i can still remember feeling my feet sweat in my teva sandals. When i was younger magnum and before that gemini i spent the first half of my life being deathly afraid of coasters.

Tower rides always scare me. I mean I will go on the scariest coasters and such, but you'd have to drag me on those drop tower rides. I'm not to into the sensation of falling.

The scariest launch is Doctor Doom's because of the theming. He really freaks you out. I found the anticipation much more intense than Hulk's launch.

I definatly agree with that, I mean, just sitting there listening to him tell you all about his plan, then slowly rising a couple feet before you get launched.

The scariest ride for me is the Monster Mouse at Quassy. That ride is in very poor condition. The cars are falling apart, and keep on losing wheels, while the ride is going along its course, and the supports rattle when cars go through the helix. Also, the seatbelts are in bad condition(ripped). I will never do it again.

All the rides I have rode have scared me that's why I ride them because I'm a adrenaline junkie and I like fear.
