Revenge of the Mummy (USH)

[Freak]

So the current rumor for Epic Universe is that they are getting a Bride of Frankenstein-themed indoor coaster. So why bring it up on this thread?

Despite F&F about to open, I don't think they can get away with closing the ride until they have a proper indoor roller coaster to replace this with. I know they're coming out with a new Mummy movie next year, but the track has yet to be replaced, which its time is past due for that. Assuming this Bride coaster rumor is true, I wonder if they finally have a proper replacement for this aging indoor coaster?

Not to throw this thread off-track, but I think they could save that for the Curse of the Werewolf plot. I don't think anyone knows for sure what's going there lol

I'm down for a Monsters Coaster, I will say Id' rather them just take out the mummy building and start over, because the space is small and think if they had more room and could even just make the building taller we could get a longer coaster.

Speculation: (I think ive said this theory before so apologies if im getting repetitive) My head theory for a while is F&F is the meant to be the replacement of the Mummy; a high thrill multi launch coaster. The refurbishment of Transformers signals to me they want to keep the ride for the foreseeable future, and with the building(s) behind Mummy being relocated for expansion I don't see Mummy lasting when a Nintendo land sized land could potentially fit there (maybe even two if theyre creative!). Now with the info Mummy is due for a retrack adding to my theory, whether or not they go ahead with it will kinda confirm it or not.

Simpsons still has still 2028 it seems (or 2027, I'm not sure) so Mummy deconstruction and its replacements construction could get started before Simpsons. Simpsons appears regularly on their socials and its still a loved part of the park (intersection no less) so I think they're going to keep the land around until the last possible second.

The lower lot was known for its intense thrill rides, the Mummy being one of the main reasons, but now with Nintendo Land opening there it seems they don't have "rules" about what each lot should be nessecarily. Heck even ET used to be the Mummy.

In short, I think when F&F proves a success and is fully operational (or when the crowds die down slightly) they'll announce either a refurb for Mummy or its closure. If the Mummy gets closed for extensive retrack tommorrow I will die from embarrassment

Personally I think they’re waiting for F&F to open before the Mummy goes down for a massive refurbishment. It’s still a very popular attraction.

I’m Gonna be real: If their plan is to keep the Mummy around instead of replacing it with a better indoor coaster, I’m going to be kinda disappointed.

With the new Mummy movie coming out, I think they will give the ride a massive refurb. If they insist on keeping the ride, at the very least I would like to see the coaster portion of the ride get a layout change.

The mummy is never leaving
