....do you think this will stay the name for Altons new ride?
For anyone who has seen the posters, did you notice the werewolf thing reflected in the water on the leaflet? (although it did also look like Gollum from Lord of the Rings  )
Wonder when we'll get a few hints about the ride

Rumours are to that Rita is ment to be having a repaint to go with the theme of the new ride. It says travel in to the unknowen so could go either way really but be a strange name tho.

Rita was a strange name though.....so might be fitting with Alton Towers. Perhaps Rita is going to be rethemed to be a witch on a broomstick that chases you round the track of the new coaster.....on second thoughts I have an over active imagination

Why would they do that Adamski. Unless they plan on instaling a boomerang. Again why would they do that.

Yer Boomerang all the way a great coaster I am converted. A Boomer into the Unknowen sounds great for a coaster.

Rita should be renamed as Banshee and the new coaster should be called Legend of the Unknown.
