Parque Warner | New coaster 2023 (rumor)

In recent years there were rumors of a possible Taron-style Intamin coaster at Phantasialand (Blitz coaster) for Parque Warner, using the old simulator building and passing through various areas of the park.

With the new shareholders of the Parques Reunidos group, this rumor gained more force, but it was still a rumor.

In the last few months, there has been a lot of news.

On 10/18/21, the official document of the agenda of the City Council of San Martín de la Vega (town where the park is located) and in the matters of the call was found: "application for a license or urban authorization - major work license for the implementation of a roller coaster activity in Parque Warner "



With this, the rumor became "official".

Rumors started about where the coaster could go:



They started with marks on the ground.

Trees have been cut down in Gotham Park (near La Venganza del Enigma drop tower) where the Halloween passage "La llorona" was located in recent years (film "The curse of La llorona").



The back of the simulator building has been demolished:



Between La Venganza del Enigma drop tower and Scooby Doo dark ride, what look like supports for footers, ditches, and pipes have appeared.



In the last weekend, the old queues of La Venganza del Enigma were not used because they were for meant for a bigger attendance



Old queues:





The Batman logo has been removed from the simulator, topographic landmarks have appeared, and the rear of the simulator has been further demolished.







Comparison of the topographic landmarks of Parque Warner and those used in other constructions. There are already 4 in the park: entrance of the simulator building, next to the simulator queues, next to Scooby Doo and behind the scenes of the Batman stunt show.













Supposedly it should use the simulator building, the rear, and the Gotham Park part. All rumors.
