Apollo's Chariot is a steel roller coaster at the Busch Gardens Williamsburg amusement park in James City County, Virginia, United States. The ride was the first Hyper Coaster designed by Swiss firm Bolliger & Mabillard. It officially opened to the public on March 27, 1999. This coaster is themed to the Greek and Roman god Apollo, who is the god of the sun, music, and healing. Apollo used his chariot to control the directions of the sun. The 4,882-foot-long (1,488 m) ride is characterized by eight air-time hills, with heights ranging between 49 and 131 feet (15 and 40 m). Riders ascend 170 feet (52 m) on the chain lift hill before dropping 210 feet (64 m) at an angle of 65°.

Glissade was a roller coaster located at Busch Gardens Williamsburg in Virginia. It was situated in the area where Izzy/Wild Maus was once located. Glissade closed permanently in 1985, and it was replaced by a defunct attraction called The Curse of DarKastle. Then in 2023, it was replaced by DarKoaster: Escape The Storm.

Curse of DarKastle was a dark ride located at Busch Gardens Williamsburg in Williamsburg, Virginia. It was a hybrid dark ride which combined roving motion-simulating vehicles, 3D projection animation, physical sets, in-vehicle audio, and special effects (wind, water, fog, and lighting). Curse of DarKastle carried a rider height requirement of 42 inches, but with a sign warning that scenes within the attraction may be too intense for young audiences. The ride took place in an abandoned Bavarian castle, haunted by evil ghosts and a demonic werewolf. The attraction closed on September 4, 2017, to make room for a new Howl-O-Scream haunted house named "FrostBite". It was assumed that the ride would return after the end of the event, however, plans were announced to utilize portions of the attraction’s space for a Christmas themed event. In an interview with the park’s Vice President of Marketing, Dan Dipiazzo, it was discovered that returning the attraction to operational status was undetermined. Dipiazzo confirmed that, as of late 2017, the attraction was still operable. However, due to high maintenance and operating costs, low ridership, and ongoing budget cuts at Busch Gardens' parent company SeaWorld Parks and Entertainment, the ride was officially announced as closed on January 23, 2018. The building became a special events space themed to a fictional German castle in 2018, with much of the gothic theming removed from the exterior and interior. On September 6, 2022, Busch Gardens Williamsburg announced that a new, multi-launch coaster named DarKoaster would open within the existing structure during 2023.
