Now the ride just looks ... old and tired. My childhood; I miss it.

VERY old Arrow Coaster. For most of you who might not know, Arrow is short for Arrow Dynamics, the company who designed and built this coaster. This looks to be an early model Arrow. Sadly, all the effects including the fog, blood colored water from the waterfall, and the head tunnel have been removed from the coaster ;'-( what's left, is the actual ride itself. I hope its still standing. As Arrow is no longer a company. The president died. That's all i know about it. But hope this amazing piece of art is still working and still going.

I work there and we actually still have a lot of the effects on the ride..... Sadly we don't really turn them on because due to the age of the ride, a lot of the effects cause faults to occur in the system. :( So to allow for more uptime of the ride, we can't actually turn them on.

Unfortunately CGA has allowed the theming to seriously deteriorate on the Demon. Several fun elements have be disabled or removed including lights in the first tunnel just out of the station as well as sounds effects that played in that tunnel, a cement rock structure you passed through during the second loop, Fog machines that were placed in the tunnels, and finally blood red colored water that fell out of the rock formation by the corkscrews. I can sort of understand why they may have stop maintaining the fog and waterfall features due to maintenance costs and other issues but they could have at least maintained the lights in the tunnel and the sound effects and the rock structure in between the second loop.

this was one of the two rides i didn’t go on at great america because i heard that you shouldn’t ride this ride with your earring because of the head banging so i never went (i’ve only been to great america once for a field trip).

Its fun, lines are usually short, but the rides probably one of the biggest ear bangers in the whole park

This is, like, the only one there I haven't been on. Hopefully next time I go I will be able to ride it.

As much as I love B&M coasters, there's just something about the old Arrow coasters that's just... Beautiful. Maybe I'm just biased because that was the first full-circuit looping coaster I ever road. Just a few minutes after riding my first ever looping coaster, the Tidal Wave. Back in the days when the park was still themed, when the Tidal Wave still had its lights and beachfront, and the Demon still had the glowing eyes by the entrance, 3 queue mazes, lights around the tunnel entrance, rocks around the loops complete with color-changing lights, and glowing eyes on the skull. Yeah, the new coasters are exciting, thrilling, and give one more of an adrenaline rush than any old coaster could. But I have yet to see one that was anywheres near as beautiful as the older ones.

You can be biased and still be correct. Vintage Arrow loopers are beautiful.

I remember riding The Demon during some promotion called "Double-Dare The Demon" where you could ride twice in a row without getting off. The day I went the park wasn't too busy and so I got to ride 9 times in a row. I also recall that there was a song that played in the queue are warning you about "the Demon.. the Demon!"
