The Day Camelot Theme Park Opened Knightmare

Knightmare opened at Camelot in the summer of 2007 and was over half a mile long, travelled at speeds over 40mph and was over 2 minutues long.

Knightmare originally featured five different coloured trains. When relaunched at Camelot, the park refurbished three of them

Knightmare, a three million pound ride, subjected you to more g force than any other rollercoaster in any of the UK`s Theme Parks when opened, pulling 5Gs at some points.

One of Knightmare’s many highlights was a mid-ride plunge nicknamed ‘the psycho drop’, after which riders were subject to extreme g forces. 

Knightmare was located in the Land of the Brave area of the park

Unfortunately, Camelot Theme Park closed at the end of the 2012 season and Knightmare remained standing-but-not-operating at the park.
