Nightmare at Crack Axle Canyon, Steel roller coaster in Queensbury, New York, United States

Nightmare at Crack Axle Canyon features a steel track stretching 1,765 feet with sharp turns and twists inside an enclosed warehouse building in darkness.

The roller coaster operated at four different locations, starting as Jet Star at Beech Bend in 1972 before moving to Noble Park, Kentucky Kingdom, and Darien Lake.

Located in the Ghosttown section of The Great Escape park, the roller coaster incorporated elements of American frontier themes throughout its operation until 2006.

The coaster reaches speeds of 31 miles per hour, stands 44 feet tall, and accommodates four riders per car arranged in single-file configuration.

The building that housed the roller coaster remains visible from Canyon Blaster and transformed into a haunted house attraction during the 2013 Fright Fest.
