Van Helsing's Factory, Steel roller coaster at Movie Park Germany, Bottrop.
Van Helsing's Factory operates as an enclosed roller coaster with a track length of 400 meters and reaches speeds of 36 kilometers per hour.
The attraction opened in June 2011 with an investment of 5 million euros, replacing the previous Gremlins Invasion ride at Movie Park Germany.
The ride draws from Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula, featuring the character Abraham Van Helsing in a factory setting for vampire hunting preparations.
The coaster accommodates four riders per car in two rows, processing 848 visitors per hour through its combination of chain lift and drive tire propulsion systems.
The exterior resembles a 1950s American garage, while the interior contains specialized equipment and vehicles designed for tracking supernatural creatures.
