Alton Towers attracts millions each year to ride some of Britain’s most thrilling rollercoasters. In June 2015, two carriages collided on the park’s ride, the Smiler. 16 people were injured. Since then the park has been working on repairing their image. As well as installing new safety features they began developing a new ride. For inspiration they turned to the theme that also inspired a 70s cult horror movie - The Wicker Man. But will it be enough?
