Perhaps one of the most startling stunts is the Distortions hooded hanging man.
The positioning of the stunt and the fact that Morey’s had one of its employees digitally record a
plea for mercy has the riders believing the stunt is a live actor for a second or two.
Elevated micro switches trigger all Dante’s stunts. However, that’s likely to change next season should the ride be rethemed. Laff In The Dark had the opportunity to discuss the various options for future renovations with owner Jack Morey during a walk-through of the ride. We’ll keep you posted on any new developments.

UPDATE
Since our visit, Dante's Inferno has been remodeled by Halloween Productions with new figures and scenery and been renamed "Dante's Dungeon".
