I think the ride mechanism would be find for my 7 yo, as he'll ride anything. I'm concerned about whether they are actively trying to scare before you are on the ride mechanism. Last year at 6 we did haunted mansion, and another rider was adding the screaming effects which terrified him. Also didn't care for the black during the stitch attraction.
Is the ride mechanism jarring, or are the drops and change in direction fairly smooth?
I don't think anyone responded to this yet, so I'll try. The drops are very smooth in my opinion. Definitely you go from standing still, to shooting downward, but its not exactly a jerk as far as I'm concerned.
As far as scaring you before hand, yes, they do things to make it freaky - loud noises, scary sequences with ghosts and darkness. Honestly, my daughter finds that stuff to be more scary than the drop sequence. She's always excited to get to the drops!
