Ghostly Manor Gameplay Theater Opening at Paultons Park UK in 2025

Lagotronics Projects announced at IAAPA Expo Europe 2024 that Ghostly Manor will open at Paultons Park in May 2025. The new ride is a first-of-its-kind gameplay theater and a partnership between Lagotronics, Mack Rides, Leisure Expert Group, Themics, and Paultons Park.

Guests with an interactive shooter called a “Phantom Phaser” will help the protagonist, Dr. Kinley, capture ghosts.

In Ghostly Manor, guests follow the adventures of the renowned ghost hunter Dr. Kinley, who is on a mission at the North Pole to find the elusive ice ghost. In his absence, he has invited guests to explore his manor. However, soon they will notice that many ghosts have escaped. Equipped with a special designed interactive device called “Phantom Phaser”, guests need to capture all ghosts throughout the manor to secure them once again. But keep an eye on “Ohjee” – the most fearsome ghost in the manor. Recapturing him will require all your skill and teamwork. As guests shoot ghosts in each scene they accumulate a score which can be viewed at the exit of the ride.

Ghostly Manor’s rotating theater rotating ride system

The attraction features a similar design to Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress, which debuted at the 1964-65 New York World's Fair and is currently operating at the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World Resort. Guests board a ride vehicle that circles twice around the platform and rotates through eight scenes.

Watch the Mack Rides GamePlay Theater video from November 2023 to understand how the ride system works.
