You would have thought so. The soundtrack itself is fine, it’s the equipment they use to broadcast it that’s at fault.

Where is the speakers on the ride?
Tbh I don’t know. My guess would be mounted on the bit of the ride it pivots on so the direction of the sound remains static but that’s just a guess. It’s actually a really well themed ride so you can’t see them!

I think the main area could do with some work as I feel it’s still to much linked to the old story line. Could they replace the coffins on the bottom.

I think it's all of the new Audio made by Midnight Syndicate

Do u think they could just use the attraction as a ride only with maybe 20 guests only. Skip out the pre shows

That would just ruin the whole experience but if they want another ride open then they probably would only operate the Swing.

Shame they didn’t do the same with the older rides and past attractions
Whilst I think the preshows and being in a group is part of the experience, they could take something like 4 groups / families (minimum 2 or 3 per group) in at once and have them socially distance, even in each corner of the library. The only challenge would be the cellar which doesn't play an integral role. It's whether it's cost effective to do that I suppose.
They could run the preshows on a loop or something and keep people 2m apart throughout the ride and then take groups into the ride itself, almost use the preshows as a queueline? Doubt that would happen though. I'm just excited to see the changes to the ride and hopefully a fix to the audio issues!

The problem you got as always ask you to stand in the middle of the room. Maybe turn the floor movement off.
Doubt this means anything, but The Haunting has been removed from Drayton Manor's list of rides on the website. I appreciate its closed at the moment, but the other rides that are say '(CLOSED DUE TO RESTRICTIONS)' next to their name. Probably just a website error but found this interesting... https://www.draytonmanor.co.uk/rides-and-attractions/rides?filter=24,25,23
On another note the new ride pictures with the logos look great, albeit not great quality.

I think unless the government say we don’t have to social distance again then the Haunting will not be reopening.
