Apocalypse, Wooden roller coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain, California, US.

Apocalypse is a wooden roller coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California, built by Great Coasters International to a layout by Jeff Pike. Its 2,877-foot track climbs a 95-foot lift hill and drops 87.3 feet at 50.1 mph. Two eleven-car Millennium Flyer trains run the circuit, and the twelfth car of each train holds only the onboard audio electronics.

Apocalypse opened on May 23, 2009, as Terminator Salvation: The Ride, built by Great Coasters International on the site of the former Psyclone. Six Flags spent about $1 million on the film-themed queue and preshow. After a post-bankruptcy restructuring, the company dropped most licensed themes, and on January 8, 2011, the coaster reopened as Apocalypse with a bunker storyline. It was briefly renamed Shadows of Evil: The Ride for Fright Fest 2015.

The queue winds through a military research compound: a bridge over a drainage ditch, a guard tower, a jeep, barrels and water tanks. Three preshow rooms lead to the station, and the ride passes a fire effect in a truck's engine compartment plus fog-filled tunnels. The 2011 storyline follows survivors of a global war reaching a bunker.

Riders must be at least 122 cm (48 in) tall. The queue winds through a military-compound set with a bridge over a drainage ditch, a guard tower and three preshow rooms before the stairs to the station. On busy days a staff member controls the merge point partway along the line.

This wooden roller coaster was the first of its kind worldwide to have speakers built into each car. During the ride, passengers hear sounds and music that match the story and strengthen the impression.
