Ghost Train - On-Ride POV - Blackpool Pleasure Beach

Step inside The Ghost Train, one of Blackpool Pleasure Beach’s most historic and atmospheric attractions. This classic dark ride has been terrifying (and delighting) guests for generations, blending traditional fairground scares with creaking sets, jump moments, and old-school haunted house effects.

Originally debuting in the 1930s and rebuilt in its current form in 1977, The Ghost Train is a true piece of British amusement history. It’s a ride defined more by atmosphere and nostalgia than technology — exactly the sort of attraction that modern parks rarely build anymore.

This POV is filmed clean and uninterrupted, capturing the full ride-through exactly as experienced, from station dispatch to final scare.
