Dark Ride - In Disney terminology,
a dark ride
is an inside theme park ride simulating nighttime,
often with black light and fiber optics highlighting
the characters and sets. The rider's attention is
focused on specific elements as he rides through
the scenes in a specially-designed vehicle. At
Disneyland park, the first dark rides were the
ones in Fantasyland featuring scenes and
characters from "Snow White and the Seven
Dwarfs," "Peter Pan," "Alice in Wonderland," and
the Mr. Toad segment of "The Adventures of
Ichabod and Mr. Toad."
