Doom & Sons

Doom & Sons was a former attraction in the Talbot Street area of Alton Towers theme park, Staffordshire, England. The attraction was opened in 1981 and then it was closed in 1991 in time for the building's transformation into Toyland Tours. It was Alton Towers's first attempt at a haunted house style attraction and was a walk-through attraction featuring interactive effects (such as skeletons in cupboards) and sensory effects (such as spongy floors).

The following year, the Haunted House opened, now known as Duel. It was a much more high tech dark ride, designed by John Wardley, in which riders travel through the house in cars with varying speed. This may have caused Doom & Sons to shut down.
