Harry Potter & The Battle at the Ministry - Reviews, Photos & Media

Yeah I don’t care what anybody says, Ministry is by far the best ride at Epic in my opinion. Monsters while the animatronics are cool, the motion profile of it I find… boring to be completely honest. Then all the backstage stuff, its like every time I go on I try to force myself to like it more rather than genuinely enjoying i for what it is. As a big fan of Spiderman I don’t understand how anyone can completely dislike Ministry. I think it’s fantastic and EASILY the best Potter dark ride imo.

I can completely agree. They should do something about the curtains after escape scene very soon. Just putting a simple wall or rock work would. DRASTICALLY improve the ride.

If it’s too cost effective, can they just grab a random wall from hhn houses after event is over?(if they’re not reusing for next year) I thought some of the structure material from grave of flesh would work well on unchained’s unthemed blank backstage walls. Or just adding some of the props from Spanish house would helps the ride a lot

Wow I'm writing a lot today, another fog effect has been added! Now, when the walls are cracked caused by rhumpent(before the animatronic scene) fog blasts through the broken wall with a cracking projection effect.

Now, I believe this ride currently has the most practical special effects in Epic Universe.

Great news! Now they just need to bring back the practical falling banister and at least restore SOME motion profile to the Magical Creatures "drop".

Fog effect definitely add a lot. The practical effects are some of the best parts of universal rides.
