Revenge of the Mummy

Revenge of the Mummy

An Attraction in Universal Studios Florida

Last updated: November 17, 2024

At a Glance

It’s hard to wrap your mind around this attraction, but trust us when we say you’re in for a very strange experience. Here, quoting Universal, are some of the things you can look forward to: “authentic Egyptian catacombs”; “high-velocity show-immersion system” (Huh? Quickie baptism?); “magnet-propulsion launch wave system”; “a ‘Brain Fire’ [!] that hovers [over guests] with temperatures soaring to 2,000°F”; and “canopic jars containing grisly remains.”

When you read between the lines, Revenge of the Mummy is an indoor dark ride based on the Mummy flicks, where guests fight off “deadly curses and vengeful creatures” while flying through Egyptian tombs and other spooky places on a high-tech roller coaster. As far as special effects go, they’re pretty good: video effects, animatronics, lighting, and enough fire-spewing gas vents to rotisserie a chicken. The endings (yes, plural) are pretty clever.

The queuing area serves to establish the story line: You’re in a group touring a set from the Mummy films when you enter a tomb where the fantasy world of film gives way to the real thing. Along the way, you’re warned about a possible curse. The visuals are rich and compelling as the queue makes its way to the loading area, where you board a clunky, jeeplike vehicle. The ride begins as a slow, very elaborate dark ride, passing through various chambers, including one where flesh-eating scarab beetles descend on you. Suddenly your vehicle stops, then drops backward and rotates. Here’s where you’re shot at high speed up the first hill of the roller coaster part of the ride. We won’t divulge too much, but the coaster part of the ride offers its own panoply of surprises (there are no barrel rolls or upside-down stuff, however). And though it’s a wild ride by anyone’s definition, the emphasis remains as much on the visuals, robotics, and special effects as on the ride itself.

7 min

Diagon Alley, Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit, and Despicable Me have diminished the Mummy’s early-morning crowds; nevertheless, try to ride during the first hour the park is open. If lines are long, try the singles line, which is often more expedient than Universal Express.

The front left seat gets the best view of the animatronic effects, while the back corner seats offer the most air-time in the coaster sections. Request row three for extra legroom if you found the test seat outside the attraction entrance to be a tight fit. Concerning motion sickness, if you can ride Space Mountain without ill effect, you should be fine on Revenge of the Mummy. Switching off is available.

Finally, note that the Mummy's queue contains enough scary stuff to frighten little kids all on its own. While most grade-schoolers we surveyed who were plucky enough to ride the Mummy gave it high marks, one father feels our rating for that age group is inappropriate:

This ride should NOT be recommended for grade-schoolers, for which you rated the ride a 4. My 2nd-grader (who wasn't scared at all on Space Mountain) was terrified during this ride and cried afterwards. I am really upset I encouraged her to ride it, and worried she'll have nightmares. Even I thought it was quite scary, and other adults on our ride echoed the same. I think you should really consider a lower rating for grade schoolers, in addition to a warning about the VERY frightening aspects of this ride.

Ask the greeter out front if you can have a free ‘Production Tour’; if it isn’t too busy, they may escort you into the maintenance area where you can watch the coaster cars fly by overhead!
