The scare actors were brilliant here. I went yesterday. When you get off the ride you have to go through some double doors into a room full of walkers. I was there with my nephew who’s 13 and was not scared till this point. The teenagers we were riding with were too scared to go through the door first, so I opened the door so everyone ran in. This is where my nephew freaked and got too scared. I held him and backed against the doors so we could wait until the room calmed down and everyone had ran through. Straight away a walker came over and told us to wait there while they scared everyone out of the room. Then they came back to us acting normal and escorted us through so no one would jump out. They were so nice to my nephew who felt a bit stupid once he got out. 😂 Massive thank you to those guys! Brilliant actors and so professional!
I went yesterday and there was no actors lol
@@pipsta my comment is 3 years old so might not have actors anymore. Be a shame cause they were great!
@@sanzaanza5518 ah sorry I thought it said 3 months 😂
@@pipsta😂 no worries! Hope you had fun!
@@sanzaanza5518 thanks we did :)
This might look bad on video but this was actually a really fun experience in person
Agreeeed
Yeh it was very good x
cait No, open all year around.
init
@cait no it's not I went it last week
Poor x, I enjoyed feeling like I was in a club whilst lining up
Laurenaaa it was one of my favourite rides!
Lil Poppy same can’t believe they’ve destroyed it I hate zombies
Why couldn’t they just make a new ride I loved x I hate this ride and fell over ripped my leg and wacked my chin and I complained 😂😂
They replaced it with this X was the first ride I ever went on at Thorpe park
Sadie Louise M Lm I hit the zombie and I cried I hate it I hate it I hate it!
it gives me anxiety with how slow he’s going 😂😂
exactly what i was feeling
I ran through this queue and I couldn’t see anything
SAMEE
When I first got onto the coaster, I genuinely thought it was a slow ride with actors coming near us and scaring us so me and my best friend were already terrified. After the rollercoaster completely dipped, we hardcore SCREAMED. rip everyone riding with us 😭
Sameeee
Genuinely such an underrated ride. The feeling of walking through the halls is so eery that its not to sprint. The smells are strong and it really feels like how it would smell in the show. The ride itself isn’t super intense, but thats not the point. Its supposed to be more atmospheric than intense, and it did that so well. Altho there are not as many actors anymore, it is still an incredible experience. I really don’t understand the hate. As a walking dead fan it is so cool to see all the references to the show, the boxes which say “property of negan” michones katana at the beginning, the 3 questions. It is genuinely such a great ride for me, the hate is so undeserved!
I feel like I was constantly being dunked under water for the entirety of that ride
Ear Exploder does it only go straight
@@fortniteelli3154No it goes all different ways it's kinda hard to explain
At the start when you walk in the hallways, I closed my eyes and held on to my friend and ended up walking in to the wall😂 then I realised it didn’t even start until we got to the line🤦🏻♀️🤣
Lol when I was there for the second time (a year ish gap) it was like 3X darker at the start... So me not being able to see A THING kept accidentally walking into the people in front of us (me and ma friend) and touching them thinking they were zombies.
They thought I was a zombie, so they screamed and ran to the front 🤣🤣 God I felt so bad!

I mean you have the walking dead licence, how do you not have the walking dead theme music playing anywhere on the ride?? 😫
The Jester They do play it around the queueline so thats good!
The Jester Laugh it plays outside
It plays
What it is really missing is having the Talking Dead theme after the ride is over.
when you are queing it is playing the whole time
I've never rode x so I cant say the walking dead is better or worse. However it is terrifying running through the corridors not knowing if the people around you are the actors as zombies or other people. And there was much more to see during the actual ride such as zombies that swung towards you and tv screens but this video is too dark to notice that
Me and my 4 friends went on this and one of which had a panic attack so we had to get the ’zombies’ to stop acting🥴
did they stop,
@@eloise6153 they have to
I went on it yesterday n Im gonna be going on it tomorrow and they’ve done so many updates and I can’t tell u how terrifying it is same with ghost train, the actors have really improved, and the video at the start has gotten better. People were way more relaxed on this ride then ur usually r
I went on this ride and i was crying
They need an actual new coaster not a retheme a new coaster who agrees???
It's a classic. One of the best rides i've been on.
@@will506 There's a nemesis at Alton towers which Nemesis inferno is based of although you most likely know that already
I did enjoy this ride, but a new coaster would be good.
I do! I always wanted to ride X :(
The most recent coaster they added was Swarm back in 2012, it's been almost 10 years since they added a new coaster
That's X with a lick of paint, Didn't even bother to do any building work.
Amazing, underrated experience and it's terrifying walking through the dark walkways, even if there are no actors!
This ride is genuinely really good. It might be a bit lazy with some of the theming on the ride but the overall experience is fun and spooky and is really good with walkers in the ending corridor
I loved x, I loved the nightclub theme of it and how the coaster was indoors and the only light source was the colourful lights, really gonna miss x
0:02 welcome to the thorpe park safe zone you know like you have been on the road for a while but before you can enter the safe zone you need to answer 3 questions you at the back how many walkers have you killed
1:99 usually while ur in the line a zombie jumps out at u and starts banging on things and screaming in your face, ngl it’s a quite scary
I was gonna go there before lockdown and this comment give me proper anxiety f hell x
If the queue is longer than 10 minutes, don’t bother. Jump on and off the wall 10 steps away for a minute, it’ll feel the same.
This ride is amazing I don’t see how it gets so much hate
I was expecting much better. X was way better. It looks absolutely boring.
Have you been on it
I’ve been on it 2 times and it is so much better irl as there are live actors this video only showed parts of the ride
I doubt you’ve been on it, don’t Judge
@@berra4215 she is judging from the video, Not like she is saying that without seeing/hearing anything
Seriously, you NEED to try it yourself. Because I thought the same and went on and it was really fun mainly as I was running away afterwards and the whole atmosphere and theming was so great.
This was incredibly fun to go on. I went on this ride a day ago with my friends and it was so fun. The actual roller coaster might look awful in this video since it's just pitch black but it isn't actually as dark as it looks here. Sadly there were no Walker actors when I went due to covid I think which was a shame but still fun as hell!
Could of made it go backwards again
Teh Official420 No way. People might be sick.
How about going Backwards with Flaming Zombies chasing you. (Hey Merlin if you implement this, I'd like commission please)
That’s exactly what my mum said when we were on it
Wow this looks bad. I really hope Thorpe Park try something new soon. The endless dark and dingy rides they’ve put out for the last decade are getting really tiresome.
Wouldn’t it be nice if we got a new intense rollercoaster with a medieval theme? Or perhaps a pirate theme? It sounds childish. But god damn, it’s more interesting than this.
Late_Bloc_Party
Wickerman in Alton towers was a hit as well as Swarm
But this... they changed a great ride into a bad one
Guess the ride and the show have something in common (no offense to anyone that loves the show lol)
I love this ride?!!!! It is so much better irl.
It does need more themed rides for sure.
Late_Bloc_Party its really good in my option
Does anyone remember the original X- No way Out ride? When it was backwards and faster in the dark. I miss it so much! I think that was in the early 2000s until someone got hurt on the ride...
Yea indeed! Good times.
Honestly when your riding it it’s quite good, it just depends on the actors that you have and where they are in the maze
i was TERRIFIED when i was walking through the hallways on this rids hahah loved it though
This ride made me cry. Didn’t help that my teacher kept making me jump. Experience 10/10 😂
i was there to die and i ran out crying 😂
Same
R.I.P X!
Crazy Bros shut up
egg huh?
This video can’t even do its justice, I loved the theming and just the ride itself
I got more scared when I was a kid reading 'Dennis the Menace' in the 'Beano'.
i think walking through the entrance and exit is the scariest bit 😭😭😭
I was watching this thinking, ‘this looks a lot like X’..
Tbf I actually rode this and me and the group of people I was with really enjoyed it
In 2023 I’m 12 and going in this ride made me so scared. I like how he started screaming at the monitor or whatever he’s holding. And at the side you see the whole park getting infected by zombies. It’s so cool and the coaster I LOVE IT! I wonder why it gets so much hate
I’ve been on this, X is still in the ride you do a walk through then an alarm goes of then u get on X.
i have never seen so many walkers in all my life.
Can you imagine if Covid 19 was like this?
I- Do not put that in my head.
@@Audrey_- ok
Its like ten times better with the actors best themed roller coaster ive been on before
I know it's a dark ride, but good Lord, I wish there was a little more so I can see where we're going and what the heck is going on!
I wanted to run as fast as I could on this but the people in front of me were SOOOOOOO slow
god inside the room my legs were shaking like mad, then they told us to go through the tunnel! i was p-ing myself.
I went their 5 days ago with other students and all of the year 10’s flipped the zombies in the cages off
Wait, did this replace "x no way out"? That one went backwards in the dark...
This one goes forward and looks slower!?
The whole going backwards in the dark was legendary, why would they do this??
Bro I went on this ride and when the rollercoaster stopped and we got off I was like oh crap do we have to run now. Then we were running away from a group of walkers and one of them was right in front of me when we got to the end of the corridor. I didn't see an exit out of the room until I looked behind me to the right. I went through the curtains and as I made my way down the corridors it had some sort of illusion that made me see things weirdly. I liked it.
This is the ONLY ride my friends wanted to go on when we went. I missed a great chance to go on Hyperia…
does it have a drop?
This is definitely not worse than X in any way, as people are suggesting. It's not the best ride in the world but it's a good use of the existing coaster. I loved X in all it's forms but it was old and tired. This is actually a really good retheme job if you take it for what it is.
Rode this last week, it was quite good, it wasn't amazing but I wasn't completely disappointed with it!
Had fun at Thorpe park. I think cos I didn't go on this or Derren's ghost Train. They should think up some more exciting themes
Blue Luny When I went last year, I went on both this and Derren Brown's Ghost Train and loved both
OMG I went Thorpe park yesterday and this ride was my FAVOURITE
X no way out was the first ‘big’ ride I rode at about 10 years old. Loved it. Doesn’t look so good now :/
i went on this ride with my mum and my younger sister because my mum thought it would be a train ride but when we got in the room and the door shut me and sister got scared and when we had to walk through the corridor we were holding on to my mum, we couldn’t properly see anything because there were barely any light at the time and we didn’t know where the corridor was heading us until we got the ride and my mum had to go with my sister because she’s young so that meant i had to go with someone i didn’t know. i was by the wall and the guy i was with was near the entrance where we entered and i was scared at that point because i was on the second last row in front of my mum and sister, i had a hoodie on at the time and i put it over my head so i couldn’t see anything (worst thing to ever do) and i felt the seatbelt thingy (don’t know what it’s called) and the worker said he’ll give us a warning/countdown for when the ride will start… he didn’t do it all i knew is that i felt the ride go down and people are screaming i’m half way at the point of cry and half way through the ride it stops and apparently there was a screen (i didn’t know cuz my head was still covered with my hoodie) and there was a male’s voice coming from it “oh we’re stuck dang it, come on!” and the ride was like trying to move(making it seem like we’re actually stuck) then again without warning it starts going again and i felt it going up and then it stopped i didn’t move because i didn’t trust anyone but i heard my mum calling me saying it’s done come up then i got up and we were together walking passed people dressed as zombies and my mum turned into a karen and said “stop it! i have children here!” i wanted to laugh but i was too scared and we finally got out.
i’m never trusting my mum with rides again… we then later went of kids rides :)
rip x
xxxtentacion and x: no way out
Tenuous
Is that it? That is disappointing.
adam4757 no there's a end where you run away from actors but I don't think you can record. I've been it with my friends it was pretty scary they both nearly cried 😂
Quit Unsub, do what ever is it fun?? Would you recommend going on it? I’m not rlly scared of this kind of thing & ive watched twd, I don’t know if it would be worth queuing up for it..
Libby Austin Savage yes 😃
Should've called this rollercoaster: Is that it? - The Ride
Trust me I went on it yesterday it’s funnier then it looks it was the end of the day and me and my friend were there alone
Oh is that Ben fox I can hear in the pre show 😏😂 looks pretty good guys!
Guys! It's not boring the theming is AMAZING it's really thrilling the roller coaster itself is so fast and great you need to try it don't just judge it from the video guys. Just stop
It's so bad it's hard to tell when it actually started
X was perfectly fine now there be no kids going on it
I was 9 or 10 when I went on this, as I knew their were actors, you could barely get me through the doors! Little did I know that on weekdays there are no actors there, I made a fool of myself!! Apart from that, the ride was a bit boring (my photo says otherwise, I was clinging onto my aunt almost crying while she was laughing out loud!) I stillavoid the rides on weekends, but apart from that I don’t mind it.
Just bring back x no way out its probably scarier and better
Jimmy Miller x wasn’t a scary themed coaster, it was nightclub themed and it was awesome, it was a slow one but the music and the colourful lights made it an amazing experience
X was a quality coaster and I can't believe we lost it for THAT
"Quality" You have to be joking...
DJ Ffin explain
I loved it cause it was a perfect mash between disco / nightclub and rollercoaster with the flashing lights. Laser and fog machines and sick music
wealthyeagle, Enjoy my channel true it felt like a nightclub / disco combined with a coaster and I loved it for it
wealthyeagle, Enjoy my channel excactly. Thanks a lot Thorpe.
Unfazed Wolf X: No way out was better
This is my first proper roller coaster I've ever been on
I went on it on Saturday for the first time
Dark themes don’t make rides good
Josh Brown so true. They changed an incredible ride into this....
They can if it's done right! Hex at Alton Towers has a dark theme and is loved to this day! This, though. This ride is garbage!
Samuel Hearfield but they dont make it good?
I’m not sure if x is better.
If you’re talking about the original 1996 ride, I’d probably say yes.
If you’re talking about the 2013 re-theme, I’d say no.
Quite honestly a waste of money and a dying franchise. I used to enjoy TWD but It just got boring they could of easily done so much more with the ride. or even replaced it with something far more interesting. I don't know how much it cost but It could of been so much better. That mid course break run could of been something like "The Mummy at universal" I would of much preferred to see something like that. Quite honestly would prefer to see a real dark ride or indoor coaster.
Merlin should just make every ride at Thorpe horror themed, while their on a roll with this theme.
I can feel the same feeling I had the first time I went on this, not a nice feeling😂
Didn't get the pre-show when I went on it the other day. I think they've stopped it probably due to Covid so the story was pretty much non-existent for me. You just enter the building and walk through the corridors now but it was still a fun experience. And the ride itself is still an intense ride just with different theming.
The pre-show is back now
Dude I would cry doing this I hate walking rides
imagine one of the passengers were actually a worker and one of the zombies pretended to kill them
I am going to Thorpe Park in 2 weeks. I love rollercoasters but I am so scared because of the actors. Is it possible to go a seperate door without the scare actors?
I was so scared even at madame toussauds but they had a seperate door.
No, there’s only one route out. Worth asking the staff at the queue if they are present the day of your visit.
That’s what makes it fun! But seriously, no, there’s only one way
i went on this for the first time today but it shut halfway through and then when we eventually carried on, there werent any actors
Is there any actors during the ride? That’s what I’m more anxious and worried about and if I can’t see exactly where the rollercoaster goes, I tend to avoid it because idk how it will be like. It’s a fear of mine
On peak days there are actors in the exit area
This makes the ride look so bad, I was absolutely terrified the whole way but when I was finished i wanted to go straight back in! I lived this ride and they normally have loads of actors which makes it a lot scarier the video doesn't do the ride justice, it's a really popular ride.
If anyone’s been on this ride
How was it?
I’m going next weekend to Thorpe park and gonna go on this
After the ride you go through some more doors and there are zombies that chase you and grab your hair, was not expecting to be chased lol
i dont like how slow he's walking 😭
I’m pretty sure 75% of the comment section is just people complaining about the fact that this replaced X
Am I the only one who prefers this version to X NO WAY OUT? Its like a cross between a rollercoaster and a ghost train
I got so scared i started screaming they couldn’t touch me cus i was a minor haha
I went to Thorpe park this Monday and I was in line for the walking dead and I chickened out cause i have like a horrible fear of zombies and stuff but my mum said it wasn’t even that bad😂
This ride is terrible, X was much better and yes I've been on both.
Trust this ride is good. In fact it's my fave ride in the park. You get chased by zombies at the end aswell.
I am sorry to say to those who saw this video and thought "what a load of rubbish", But I went on this ride yesterday, and I have to say it is a great ride. Whilst the ride is the same as X, they did retheme it with quite a (cheesy) run to build you up to the ride. If you have been on X before you will know that the queue is this long hallway that is boring to look at, but in this, they really do nail the ride with some loud sirens and dim/no lighting. Despite the lack of feeling like you want to go on the ride a second time (due to knowing whats going to happen) but I actually loved this ride and would recommend people go on it as long as its queue time is less than 60 minutes.
TL;DR: This ride is better than the comments put it out to be.
Zephane yup,I totally agree with you. As a big fan of the walking dead,this ride in my opinion,has done pretty well with the whole zombie thing. While I also appreciate people in the comments saying this ride is shit. To be able to make a proper judgement you'd have to experience the ride for yourself,but i don't really understand what you guys are starting a arguement over.
i'd show up in full carl cosplay screaming "I WILL NEVER DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE"
But Carl is dead
why do you think i said i would say "i will never die", dude?
But he did die
Ok. I know some of you thinks is boring. i went on it once, and the last one was so scary.
*We have too many horror themed rides*
Ian Banda Thorpe park now looks abandoned. Think about it. Not one area of the park isn't themed to look destroyed. I completely agree.
3 horror themed rides actually
TH13TEEN, Smiler, and Wicker Man are at Alton Towers, not Thorpe.
It's Saw, this, and Swarm
i think he means like Merlin attractions in general
I've been on that I cried and my dad had to drag me along
20 million pounds, bois. 20 million.
What was? No way this retheme was £20m...
This cannot have cost them £20m.. Wicker Man was even less 🤦🏻♂️
Silvarret £11 million spent on the walking dead in total
Sam Everett It was less than 1 million. All figures are available online. Where do you get these figures from 😂
Crash of The 90's it cost £16 million.
They need a big ride like swarm but more thrilling and intense
this is like the english version of the dark knight coaster at six flags great adventure
So now the only coaster at Thorpe that doesn't have a 1.4 height restriction is flying fish. Good work screwing over the family market with a shitty retheme, Thorpe...
have you never heard of Chessington on Legoland there both 40 mins away.
dom_97 but Thorpe had a family market too, which have just been alienated, also chessie and legoland are shit :^)
Thorpe Park have even advertised that their teen and young adults only they are slowly getting rid of the younger rides
Good to have a park with no annoying kids making a racket!
I think it's pretty good that for once a theme park focuses on an older audience
I am so sad x is gone );
Wasn’t any actors when I went so left quite underwhelmed but I didn’t get the full experience so can’t truly judge
I don't understand how they get these really cheesy pre show actors
I tried this ride and I had a mental breakdown
local_ trainspotter same😂
I had such a fun time on this one honestly
I hated this ride x-x I came out screaming and crying
Uninstalled slammer and kept this.. Maybe a good idea to get rid of both and then you have a site the size of colossus for a new installment!
Thorpe Park is starting to take too many steps in the wrong direction...
