I loved this. Best dark ride in the U.K by miles. Admittedly, it relies on a gorgeous location, but it uses it perfectly. Easily the most atmospheric ride at Alton.P.S Lily-Mei is a slag.

I Must Admit...I Enjoyed This Ride...Though It Caused Hassle...I Didnt Get Time To Go On It The First Time I Went With My School Because Me And My Friends Were Checking The Thrill Rides But When We Went On My Birthday We Knew What Rides Sucked And What Didnt Unfortunatly It Was A Long Que And Kept Growing Longer...And My Best Friend Lily-Mei (Who Likes to Flirt With Mingers) Was Flirting With A Minger So We Had To Wait For Her...Bad News For Her The Minger Was At The Park With His Minging Girlfriend So She Didnt Get The Mingers Attention...Just An Argument With Mingers Minging Girlfriend Which Superhero (Yours Truly) Told The Mingers Minging Girlfriend Where to Shove It And Pushed Lily-Mei Into The Que Was A Pretty Good Ride When We Finially Got On It

What an amazing idea! This would be exactly the same as the one in Blackpool if it wasn't for the buildup story and music. These people are geniuses! (And, coaster crazy? Please, just go.)

Everyone who says this ride is a waste of time, and says that it's crap obviously doesn't tune in to the whole experience.

An okay break in the day, designed to distarct and disorientate rather than thrill. One note of warning, choose who you ride with as groups that are unwilling to stop and watch, take phonecalls, or talk throughout the video sections do really disappate the atmosphere and the thrill.

Hmm; I suppose this ride was a bit of a waste of time. It was okay, the only good enough bit was the end. I've been on the Drayton Manor one; and I got told is was better, but I failed to notice a difference.

Diabolical is how to explain Hex. Long queues, boring video section, no atmosphere at the finale. The theming is great, got nothing against that but there isn't really an unthemed ride at the park. The sad fact is that everyone goes on it.

I thought it was quite good. I didn't really know what it actually did, and the storyline itself was quite odd, but nevertheless enjoyable. The actual illusion room felt kinda unnecessary, as it didn't reveal much at all I don't think. But overall, it was a fun ride.

i didnt queue for this when i went so i was happy :) was interesting for me as i'd never been on anything like it before,but no i agree its a novelty ride with a naff story.but get on it if there's no queue and you've done everything else!

Best time this is when it's raining outside and get shelter in or go at 12pm-ish when people are getting lunch and the queues aren't that big.

If u like this type of ride than give it go, otherwise its just one of those fancy time-wasters with huge q's.

I hate Hex, The Haunting is so much better and is more funny. I hate the story line and there is no action.

So very very poor, a long, boring story leading to a three minute 'illusion' ride. I hate Hex.

I like this, it is quite scary for the little ones! Don't miss it, its a good "Time Filler" as the CF team would say ;D

The UK's superior dark ride, it just goes to show that Tussauds can do wonders and can make rides that can compete with Disney standards...

Meh! Drayton Manor has a much better Vekoma Madhouse, And this one has a true storyline, But you see more of the house on DMP's Madhouse.

I loved the themeing and story as you walk through. It does feel like the room is moving at the end though. Reminded me of similar ride in Blackpool.

The best dark ride in the country by a long, long distance and the greatest Madhouse I've ridden.

So sickly and dis-orientating is the finale that I should be condeming it...but I can't knowing that the pre-shows, the themeing and looks on other riders faces are fantastic and hilarious.

A really good ride but[I love using buts now!]it has a long Q line as well as Charile and the choco factory! Clapping started by me at the end! In the towers building as well! Ride it if you have a lot of time!

Hex is one of Altons best rides. The themeing is brilliant, and the story is cool. Awsome ride and i would never miss it.

What a waste of time! the rides story whilst you are queuing builds you up to think you are about to experience a thrill, and then you are put on a bench facing a tree! i wasnt happy at all with this ride.

A good well themed walk through dark ride with the "legend of the towers" but i disliked the ride at the end. It made me feel so dispoiantated and made me feel very sick in the end!

When I looked at this page, strangely it looked like it was turning. OMG! Hex has a side affect!

this was cool because when it rocked it looks as if we were going upside down.

I think The Haunting at Drayton Manor is better but neither of them are brilliant they're both just OK.

Now its this kind of ride I don't like (I hate anything ghostly and dark!) But this was amazing, I was totally conned at the end, it took me a while to figure out that it was the room that was moving and not me!!

A very scary ride (because it's dark) and very weird. At the beginning, your legs start sliding forward, but it doesn't even feel like its moving!
