HorrorLand rides and attractions[]

Deadly Doom Slide[]
The Deadly Doom Slide is an attraction. Way back during the park's 10th Anniversary Year, attendance started to die off. People were bored with the same old rides all over again. But, then Bill Board: Head of the HorrorLand Advertising came up with a plan to make the park frightening again. First, the Horrors bought the ten haunted acres of the cemetery next to it and used the tombstones to build several things over the park leaving many ghosts homeless and unhappy. Then a contest came in to design the scariest slide ever. Instead of picking one, the horrors picked 10 random designs and constructed the Doom Slide.
The slides in the Doom Slide are:
- The Ear Wax Alley
