Other Facts (PCW Junkies Comments):
Scooby's Gasping Ghoster Coaster was one of the four original roller coasters that opened with the park in 1981. All Paramount Parks, except for PGA, have this Scooby sized woodie featuring lots of fun curves and dips for kids of all ages.

Do not be fooled -  this is not some little Kiddie coaster. Ghoster Coaster is a junior woodie that packs the same thrills, just on a smaller scale, as its bigger brothers at Wonderland.

Ghoster Coaster is honoured by ACE (American Coaster Enthusiasts) by being awarded the "ACE Coaster Classic" status. Only thirty seven other wooden coasters in the world today share this distinction.
