icon_STOP2024 - Dämonen Gruft / Demon’s Tomb & Toxic Garden - (2/17/2024) Heide Park has at last confirmed that their new for 2024 dark ride will be called “Dämonen Gruft”. The name translates to English as “Demon’s Tomb”, so this confirms all those hints they were dropping over the past months about the kind of dark and creepy experience they are going for here.
    Fitting into that story, the park claims to have accidentally discovered some ancient catacombs under the grounds during some excavation work last fall. For the past several months they began to offer a “catacomb tour” of the site to the locals, only to have some of those guests mysteriously vanish without a trace, despite numerous attempts to search for them. Now it appears that the newly dubbed “Demon’s Tomb” may be some kind of ancient and terrible trap… and it is waiting for you.
    Dämonen Gruft will open to the public on March 29, 2024 to take you for a 3 minute trip down into the Demon’s Tomb to see for yourself what lies beneath Heide Park because “Sacrifices must be made”...

 
    (12/29/2023) Heide Park will be updating the park’s former Vekoma SLC that opened as “Limit” back in 1999 to have an updated theme and along with some extensive “track correction” taking place by Vekoma to improve the ride experience. The new name will be Toxic Garden, and based on the concept art, there may be some new theming added to the trains. Again, this is just concept art, so we don’t know how the final product will actually look, as the artwork also shows off what appears to be the original restraint system as well. In recient years, often when a major  update has been done to a Vekoma SLC model, they often update the train as well, featuring more comfortable soft-vest style restraints.
    According to the Heide Park website, the new theme of the coaster will tie into the nearby Transylvania theme and based on the concept art, it looks like you’ll be flying dangerously close to some gigantic killer venus fly traps!
    Keep in mind that this is in addition to the new Catacomb’s Tour attraction that was also being teased previously.
 
    (10/23/2023) Heide Park appears to be planning on opening a unique new attraction for the 2024 season. They’ve begun posting some odd seasons on social media about the discovery of mysterious catacombs in the park, possibly linked to the park’s Flug der Damonen (Flight of the Demons) coaster (B&M Wing Coaster).
