TOP 10 DISNEY WORLD THIRLL RIDES
Top 10 Spookiest and Thrilling Rides at Walt Disney World
Walt Disney World is known as a family-friendly resort destination with rides that families can enjoy together. But what about those who want more excitement? Well, Disney rides are masters at storytelling, and a select few have the potential to immerse you into stories with big thrills or big special effects. I have 10 scary must-do attractions at Walt Disney World Resort for thrill seekers and special effects lovers.
The attic in Haunted Mansion is one of the creepiest scenes Disney has ever created.
Number 10: The Haunted Mansion
The Haunted Mansion at Disney World is one of the park’s most iconic attractions, blending humor, whimsy, and just the right amount of spookiness. The eerie atmosphere is created by hauntingly beautiful decor and a ghostly soundtrack. And the ride itself takes you through various scenes populated by friendly ghosts and supernatural characters, each with its own story and charm.
The attraction starts with a clever preshow, where you see the foreboding mansion up on a hill, complete with the sound of a distant thunderstorm and a dog howling. One of my favorite tips is to look closely at the windows at night - you may something in the windows. A Cast Member will greet you with a dead serious expression, and will lead you into the foyer and then an elevator, reminding you to step in the “dead center of the room”
I think the stretching room is one of the best special effects Disney has ever created and it’s where you’ll see and hear the attraction's most frightening scene, a hanging body in the rafters, followed by sudden darkness, and the sound of a body hitting the ground. As you progress through the ride in your DoomBuggy, you encounter famous scenes like the ballroom filled with dancing spirits, the ghostly bride, and of course hitchhiking ghosts, It hink they are each designed to entertain rather than terrify.
While there are some dark and creepy elements, the tone remains playful. The humor often shines through, with clever wordplay in the narration and light-hearted interactions that keep things fun. Families with young children often enjoy it together, as the scares are mild and the experience is more about enjoying the spooky atmosphere than feeling genuinely frightened.
Overall, the Haunted Mansion is perfect for those looking for a taste of the spooky side of Disney without the intensity of a traditional theme park blood and guts attraction. It’s a delightful blend of thrills, laughs, and a touch of Disney magic that makes it a must-visit for guests of all ages.
Number 9: Pirates of the Caribbean
When I enter the queue at "Pirates of the Caribbean" at Walt Disney World, I am immediately brought back to my childhood. I loved this attraction as a kid, it all seemed so real to me. Like the Haunted Mansion, this attraction offers a unique blend of storytelling - even though it’s unclear as to what exactly the story is, and mild spookiness, making it a classic attraction for so many of us. The ride begins in a dimly lit Spanish fort, immersing you in a world of pirates, weapons, and treasure. Once aboard your boat, you are transported through various scenes of thunderstorms, skeletons on a beach, and a helmsman who doesn’t seem to know he’s dead, which is my favorite scene in the ride by the way.
Pirates of the Caribbean at Magic Kingdom
You’re then surprised by a blinding flash, then sudden darkness, and sail over a waterfall. And you emerge right in the middle of cannon fire between a pirate ship and a Spanish fort. Cannonballs land in the water right next to your boat - too close for comfort.
While the overall atmosphere is playful, the dim lighting and dark waters create an eerie feeling, The ride features amazing sound effects, and hilarious classic quotes {dont be chicken}
This is what makes Pirate of the Caribbean such a great attraction. Its scariest moments are balanced with humor, more about the excitement of the pirate adventure than genuine fear, making it a memorable experience for everyone who rides it!
Number 8: Flight of Passage
Avatar Flight of Passage at Disney's Animal Kingdom can feel a bit scary for several reasons, particularly for guests who may be sensitive to heights or intense motion. From the moment you enter the immersive queue, you’re enveloped in the lush world of Pandora. But then you enter very industrial areas in stark contrast to the world you just left. Just listen to the background sound effects in there - I think it’s designed to make you feel uneasy - which builds anticipation for the ride ahead. Once you're seated on the ride vehicle, the experience intensifies as you’re secured into place, heightening a sense of vulnerability.
Flight of Passage at Disney's Animal Kingdom Park
As the ride begins, there’s a sensation of soaring on the back of a banshee and it’s amazing. The combination of stunning 3D visuals and physical movement creates a breathtaking but disorienting experience, especially during the rapid turns and drops. The feeling of flying high above the beautiful landscapes of Pandora can evoke a sense of fear for those uncomfortable with heights.
Additionally, the ride incorporates various sensory effects, such as the wind in your face, mist, and the feeling of the banshee breathing beneath you, which really immerses you into the story.
I think the intensity of the experience—combined with the stunning yet immersive visuals— makes Flight of Passage a spectacular ride and provides a thrilling rush with intense experiences!
Number 7: Mission SPACE
It’s not that I find Mission: SPACE at Epcot frightening, I just think it’s scary not knowing if it’s going to make me sick or not. I have never experienced the Orange team for this reason - I’m too afraid. But I do like the less intense Green Team. The Orange Team, For some people, is a great thrill ride with a great story. But for others, it makes them so sick, that they have to go home. If you see someone lying down a bench in Epcot, chances are they just got off Mission Space.
And the ride can be quite intimidating, particularly for those who may be prone to motion sickness or are not fans of enclosed spaces. The ride simulates a space launch, immersing you in a realistic environment that includes intense spins and G-forces designed to replicate the feeling of blasting off into space. As you’re strapped into your seat and the countdown begins, the sense of anticipation builds, heightened by the tight confines of the capsule. The ride’s immersive visuals and sound effects contribute to a feeling of being launched into orbit, which can be disorienting for some.
The intense sensations of acceleration and the spinning motion can create an overwhelming experience, leading to feelings of anxiety or unease. For guests who find the idea of space travel daunting or who may not enjoy high-intensity attractions, Mission: SPACE can be genuinely scary, making it a ride that requires a bit of courage to tackle!
Number 6: Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster
Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Disney’s Hollywood Studios is an exhilarating experience that can certainly be considered on the scarier side, especially for those who aren’t accustomed to high-speed thrill rides. The ride begins with a dramatic launch that catapults you from 0 to 57 mph in just a few seconds, creating an adrenaline rush that’s hard to match in Orlando. The ride primarily takes place in complete darkness which adds an element of surprise and suspense.
As you zoom along, the unexpected loops and inversions come at you fast, leaving little time to prepare for the thrilling drops and sharp corners. The combination of the powerful G-forces and the disorienting darkness can be quite intense, making it feel like you're speeding through the streets of Los Angeles. The energetic soundtrack featuring classic rock anthems by Aerosmith only heightens the excitement, immersing you in the exhilarating vibe of a rock concert.
The initial launch, in particular, is terrifying because you know you’re going to launch, but when exactly is that going to happen. Sitting there waiting in suspense is perhaps the biggest thrill of the ride. The ride’s design plays with your senses, blending the thrill of speed with the thrill of the unknown, which can amplify the scare factor.
Overall, Rock 'n' Roller Coaster delivers a wild and intense experience making it one of the more thrilling—and potentially scary—attractions at Disney World.
And while I love Aerosmith, I wouldn’t mind seeing a refresh here. I think the band Coldplay would be a great addition to the ride. What band do you think would be a good fit here?
Number 5: Expedition Everest
Expedition Everest at Disney's Animal Kingdom can be quite a scary experience starting with the moment you see it from a distance. And once you enter the queue, you're immersed in the lore of the legendary Yeti and the mysteries of the Himalayas, which sets a suspenseful tone. My favorite scene in the queue is the display of the badly beaten camping gear, and the last few photos the photographer ever took,in his or her last attempt to document their demise. That is some great storytelling.
Expedition Everest at Disney's Animal Kingdom Park
As you head out on the track, listen to the sound effects - especially as you climb the main lift hill. Everything you hear is unsettling from the prayer music in the temple to the creaking of the bridge. You also have a feeling of vulnerability as you realize how high you are. And then there’s the moment where you run out of track.
And how about the fact that the ride suddenly goes backward into the mountain and into complete darkness? It’s disorienting by design, amplifying the scare factor as you feel a loss of control and that you can’t see where you’re going or where you’ll end up. The darkness of the tunnels and the sudden encounters with the Yeti can be genuinely startling, especially when it appears he’s lunging toward you in the ride’s finale scene. The combination of speed, height, and darkness creates an exhilarating yet very intimidating experience for a Disney ride.
The immersive storytelling, combined with the physical sensations of the ride, makes Expedition Everest a thrilling journey that leaves me saying, only Disney could create this.
Number 4: Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance at Disney's Hollywood Studios can be a thrilling and somewhat scary experience for several reasons. From the moment you enter the queue, you’re immersed in the tension of a Resistance mission, with atmospheric lighting and sound effects that create a sense of urgency. The story unfolds with unexpected twists, making you feel like you’re part of a high-stakes adventure.
As you progress through the queue, you encounter First Order Cast Members who treat you as prisoners. Making you stand single file. Some may even get in your personal space to look you up and down and further intimate you. They must have so much fun at work every day.
After being placed into a prison cell and an uncomfortable lecture by Kylo Ren, the immersive experience ramps up with a sudden escape. Realistic animatronics and amazing special effects bring the Star Wars universe to life. Your encounter with the First Order can be pretty intense, as stormtroopers confront you with their menacing terrible aim, and the fear of capture adds to the suspense. The ride includes moments of sudden movement, including a surprise drop which elevates the adrenaline.
Additionally, the use of sound effects and immersive storytelling heightens the tension. The sounds of blaster fire, the rumble of a Star Destroyer, and the ominous presence of Kylo Ren all contribute to a sense of danger that feels real. The combination of dark environments, startling moments, and the overarching narrative of being chased by the First Order creates an atmosphere that can be genuinely frightening, especially for those who are fans of the franchise and invested in the storyline.
Overall, Rise of the Resistance blends thrilling ride mechanics with immersive storytelling, making it a heart-pounding experience that keeps guests on the edge of their seats—definitely a memorable adventure for anyone brave enough to join the Resistance!
Number 3 It’s Tough to Be a Bug!
It’s Tough to Be a Bug! at Disney's Animal Kingdom can be surprisingly intense for some guests, particularly younger children and uh, men in their 40s who just happen to have a crippling fear of insects just sayin’
The attraction combines 3D visual effects with live-action elements, immersing you in a world from the perspective of bugs. As the show unfolds, guests encounter various insects, and the atmosphere becomes increasingly immersive and interactive.
The main source of fear comes from the unexpected surprises throughout the show. Guests are subjected to sensory effects like sudden gusts of air and fog when they are blasted with bug spray, vibrations in their seats, and even the sensation of bugs crawling around their seat. These elements can be startling, especially because they occur unexpectedly, creating moments of genuine fright.
The show also features some scenes that portray predators, such as spiders and hornets, which are naturally intimidating to us humans. While the attraction aims to educate and entertain, the combination of sensory effects and unexpected scares can make it a frightening experience.
Number 2: Dinosaur
Dinosaur at Disney's Animal Kingdom is super scary for a variety of reasons, and I’m honestly surprised Disney even created a ride like this. The ride's premise—traveling back to the age of dinosaurs, actually you’re going back in time to steal a dinosaur—creates a sense of urgency, especially with the looming threat of carnivorous dinosaurs all around you.
As you board your time rover and the adventure begins, the darkness of the ride is disorienting, making it difficult to anticipate what might come next. The sudden appearance of massive animatronic dinosaurs, especially the T. rex, is genuinely terrifying. Their realistic movements, combined with loud roars and the sensation of the vehicle reacting to these monsters, create a visceral experience that catch you totally off guard.
Additionally, the ride features quick turns, drops, and the feeling of being chased, all of which contribute to a heightened sense of fear and excitement. The immersive sound effects—such as the growls of dinosaurs and the crashing of trees—enhance the atmosphere, making you feel like you’re truly in the middle of a prehistoric jungle.
Dinosaur can be particularly intense, making it a thrilling experience that uniquely combines excitement and fright! My favorite thing about this ride is the on-ride photos at the end - look at how many people have their eyes closed because they were so scared!
Number 1: Twilight Zone Tower of Terror
The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at Disney's Hollywood Studios is widely regarded as one of the scariest attractions at Walt Disney World for several compelling reasons. I can’t think of any other ride at Disney that gets into your head quite like this one. It’s 90% psychological - starting with the queue where you encounter overgrown gardens and dried-up fountains, and I find the echo-y big band music especially haunting. And then there’s the suddenly-abandoned lobby that immerses you in the eerie story of the hotel’s mysterious past. What happened here that hotel guests left their drinks and belongings behind?
Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at Disney's Hollywood Studios
The backstory, which revolves around a tragic elevator accident, sets a foreboding tone that builds anticipation and tension.
As you make your way through the attraction, the unsettling ambiance continues to heighten. You’re in the hotel’s basement - because basements are scary. Your surrounded by Steampipes, boilers and of course service elevators. The suspense builds as you board the elevator, which feels old, confined, and claustrophobic.
The ride begins with a surprisingly smooth and rapid lift - which lets you know this ride system has power and speed. There’s just something about that first lift - it lets you know there’s no going back. As your elevator car stops, you’re shown unsettling scenes that make no sense like a shattering window and an oversized eyeball.
The ride itself combines sudden drops and jolting movements that create a feeling of weightlessness. Plus there’s the unpredictability of the ride— the random drop sequences add to the fear factor, as you never know when the next drop or lift will occur.
For me, the combination of psychological thrills and physical sensations makes the Tower of Terror a uniquely scary ride that keeps me on the edge of my seat. It’s a must-do for thrill-seekers and horror fans alike!
Want to add to my list? Let me know what ride you find scary at Walt Disney World. How about it’s a small world? Imagine working on that attraction at night, after everyone has gone home? I’ll be in the comments following along.

Epcot
Epcot has a lot of rides for people who hate rides. Not as many as Magic Kingdom but I’ll get to that one in a moment. That’s the big one so I need a lot of time there. Spaceship Earth at Epcot offers a gentle journey through time. Forget about drops and intense speeds – here, the focus is on learning and exploration. The ride vehicles take you on a slow-moving tour highlighting the history of communication, from cave paintings to the rise of modern technology.

Magic Kingdom
Calling the Jungle Cruise at Disney World a thrill ride would be like calling a nature documentary extreme sports. It's a humorous boat tour through a meticulously crafted jungle environment, perfect for adventurers of all ages. You'll set sail at a leisurely pace, enjoying the scenic landscapes and the witty commentary of your "skipper." Their hilarious puns will keep you entertained throughout the cruise. The excitement comes from spotting animatronic animals and witnessing first-hand, the backside of water. And remember to be a good audience for your skipper, the more you laugh, the more they get into it.

It's a scenic boat ride taking you on a leisurely journey through the world of pirates. You'll float along at a relaxing pace, surrounded by animatronic pirates, fantastic music, and special effects. The ride weaves a story of pirate adventures, with some spooky elements that are more atmospheric than scary. There's even a small waterfall drop, but it's a mild surprise rather than a heart-pounding plunge. Pirates of the Caribbean is suitable for most ages, with no minimum height requirement.
The Liberty Belle Riverboat is a relaxing river cruise aboard a vintage paddle-wheeler. Set sail for a leisurely journey around the Rivers of America and Tom Sawyer Island. The gentle pace allows you to soak in the beautiful scenery of Magic Kingdom Park from and from a unique perspective. You'll glide past Frontierland, Liberty Square, and other themed areas of the park. I encourage you to explore the boat while onboard and visit the different decks, bow and stern. Other than that, not much happens onboard the Liberty Belle Riverboat so it’s the perfect way to rest and recharge.
The Haunted Mansion isn't your typical scream-inducing haunted house. Instead, it's a delightfully spooky adventure for the whole family (with a few exceptions). You'll embark on a slow-moving journey through the creepy corridors of a haunted mansion aboard your very own "Doom Buggy."

The journey unfolds through familiar scenes from the movie, with colorful lighting, charming music, and everyone's favorite underwater characters like Ariel, Sebastian, and Ursula coming to life with special effects.
Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin is a great family-friendly ride but don’t let the word “spin” throw you off. While it does have the capability to turn slowly, it doesn’t spin. The intent is not so much to spin, but to turn your ride vehicle in the direction of the targets you want to hit. You control the movement through the use of a joystick. You'll be aiming at targets with your very own laser gun. The real thrill comes from racking up points and becoming a top space ranger!
Buckle up for a journey through time, but hold on loosely – The Carousel of Progress is a more relaxing trip down memory lane than a ride. Instead of speeding through loops and dips, you'll be comfortably seated in a slowly rotating theater. The magic unfolds around you as the show uses animatronics and narration to tell the story of 20th century American innovation. The atmosphere is light and positive, focusing on the advancements in technology and lifestyle that have shaped our lives.
Soar through the skies above Neverland, but ditch the devlish thrills! Peter Pan's Flight is a whimsical dark ride perfect for flyers of all ages. Instead of stomach-dropping plunges, you'll be nestled comfortably in a pirate ship that glides along a track. There are no inversions or scary surprises, just heartwarming views and classic scenes from Peter Pan brought to life with special effects, lighting, and charming animatronics.
All aboard for a relaxing journey, not a heart-pounding experience! The Walt Disney World Railroad is a leisurely train ride around Magic Kingdom. Forget about speeding through loops – this charming train chugs along at a gentle pace, offering a laid-back tour of the park's diverse landscapes. Settle into a comfortable seat and soak in the scenery as you travel past different themed lands, spotting glimpses of your favorite attractions. It's a perfect way to take a rest and maybe even discover some hidden gems you wouldn't have otherwise seen.
The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover in Magic Kingdom is the epitome of a ride that everyone can do. It's the perfect antidote to a busy day in the park too, usually with a short wait. This continuously moving ride glides smoothly along an elevated track, offering a fantastic view of Tomorrowland and Magic Kingdom from above. You'll travel at a relaxed pace, soaking in the sights of the various attractions. It's a great way to rest your legs, get your bearings in Tomorrowland, and maybe even score some ride inspiration for later!
In a nutshell, even if you're not a fan of rides, there's no need to miss out on the wonder and joy that Disney World has to offer. With the right approach, ride haters can still have an absolutely amazing time at the theme parks.
