Curse of DarKastle

So it might be me but do any of you remember when there where werewolves during Howl-O-Scream in the queue line I remember them scaring the shit out of me
I recently acquired this item I didn't know existed. It has the original ride trailer, entire pre show, an interactive map of the other "thrill" rides at the time (Wolf, Apollo's, Alpine, Nessie, and Pompeii) and a screensaver for PC.
Need to get a USB disc drive to run the screen saver exe and see what it looks like, but other than that this disc was worth nabbing for my collection because of the preshow alone. Never could find a good raw reel of it anywhere, now I have it.

Digitize it, and I will pay for a copy of it for my phone
Considering I didn't get the "piracy isn't a victimless crime" shpiel that DVDs used to have plastered all over them at the beginning, I assume piracy is encouraged for this item!
Please upload the preshow! I haven’t been able to find a good video of it online since the ride closed.
Hey so we finally decided to make that curse of darkastle documentary, if y’all have anything that would be of use. That would be great! There’s already sooo much available about this ride’s development and that makes this so much easier but we are mainly trying to find footage of the queue and Preshow area. Thank you!
Check out what I found today!!
It's such a shame they trashed those statues. They would've fit theme of Darkoaster just fine.
Interestingly, somebody within the last day or two has been commenting on almost all of my DarKastle videos on YouTube about this. They seem to be claiming that all of Curse of DarKastle’s music was ripped from the movie, but that is not the case.
It’s something about the attraction that has always been interesting and confusing to me. What I have most commonly heard is that both that movie and DarKastle shared studio time. However, Curse of DarKastle did have its own composer, Glenn Longacre, so most of the music was original and specifically for DarKastle.

It’s strange how similar they sound though
I'd imagine that like a movie there was a temp score for Curse of DarKastle to let the composer know the desired tone and pace of the attraction's original score, so they almost certainly looked to Alan Silvestri's Van Helsing score for inspiration.
Funny enough, someone made this same discovery on the forum 10 years ago. It’s a really interesting similarity for sure!
