Animatronics and dark ride specialist Sally Corp has announced it is working with Sanderson Group on a new Casper dark ride.
The ride is to be installed at the upcoming Movie Animation Park Studios (MAPS), in the Malaysian state of Perak. The interactive dark ride is based on the popular DreamWorks’ IP Casper the Friendly Ghost. Sally is creating the animatronics, props and ride system and Sanderson is providing the theming for the Casper’s Birthday Blast experience.
MAPS, Malaysia’s first animation theme park project, is a RM450 million (US$111m, €97m, £76m) collaboration between Sanderson and property developer Perak Corporation Berhad. It will feature six different zones – Animation Square, Fantasy Forest, Live Action, Space Zone, DreamWorks and the Lakeside Zone – to form an animation-based fantasy environment. The DreamWorks zone will bring the film studio’s properties such as Mr Peabody & Sherman and Casper.
The park is nearing completion and expected to open later this year.
