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."
