The ride re-opened in late 2018, now advertised as Scooby-Doo Spooky Coaster: Next Generation.

The main entrance facade is modelled after the Spooky Island Castle that is featured in the film.

[6] New theming was installed in late 2018 and the ride's name was slightly altered with "Next Generation" to reflect the update as well as the storyline changes.

On most days, guests must walk up a few steps enter the castle and the ride's queue line.

Once inside the castle riders are treated to the sight of a monster fountain and a making of video of the 2002 film.

This section features various smoke, lighting and laser effects[2] as well as a giant spider previously used in the Harry Potter Movie Magic Experience and Halloween Family Fun Nights.

It is also musically accompanied by U.S. punk band MXPX playing a cover of the Scooby-Doo theme song.

The ride ends with a final animatronic Scooby showing riders the way out of the wild mouse section, followed by one very small drop to get to the exit platform.

Following the usual Ghost Train section, Riders are greeted with the mirror scene which now uses more projection effects to display the two monsters attacking the vehicle.

The traditional wild mouse section remains relatively unaltered, however, the vat carrying the souls from the movie now sits in the centre of the room.

As riders leave this section they are now greeted by two projection mapped screens on either side of the train, but as the disco skull on the ceiling shines, the creatures become afraid.
