Poltergeist

Notice how much padding was around the rider's heads?  This ride was very rough.

In early 2002, Poltergeist's trains were modified.  Gone were the "over-the-shoulder" restraints shown in this picture.  Now, just a lap bar is used.  Since the "head banging" has been eliminated, I think the quality of the ride has increased dramatically.
