Lore and legend are coming to life, and all-new thrills are surfacing as Cedar Point is set to debut Siren’s Curse on Saturday, June 28.
Siren’s Curse hearkens to the stories of mysterious creatures living beneath the surface of Lake Erie; often spoken of – but never spotted. The sirens of the lake who lured sailors to their underwater demise with their sweet, seductive songs are finally rising to land to entrap guests in a sinister two-minute fate of non-stop roller coaster innovation.
Riders will hear the echo of the siren’s chilling melodies as they ascend an old 160-foot-tall Lake Erie shipping crane tower. At the peak, guests encounter the roller coaster’s signature moment: a dead stop on a “broken off” section of track. The creaking platform holding the train of riders will slowly tilt the entire train into a 90-degree vertical position, forcing riders to peer straight down.
As the track locks into place, riders plunge downward, speeding through 2,966 feet of track at a top speed of 58 mph. The ride features 13 weightless airtime moments, two 360-degree, zero-gravity barrel rolls and a high-speed “triple-down” element with twisted and overbanked track.
Further immersing those who dare to ride, the two, 24-passenger trains on Siren’s Curse envelop riders with high-fidelity integrated audio and signature LED lighting on each car. Guests must be 48” tall to ride Siren’s Curse.
