What do you think of Sounds Dangerous?

[koobs]

I am slightly claustrophobic. It's not bad. I can handle elevators, the Tower of Terror and the stretching room at Haunted Mansion okay. I have no fear of the dark so on our last Disney trip I thought Sounds Dangerous? Sounds Boring, but what the heck I've never done it before so I'll give it a try.

Oh my goodness! As soon as we plunged into total darkness, every tiny feeling of claustrophobia I have ever had multiplied itself by a hundred! It was all I could do to keep from screaming and stumbling my way to the exit. I did not want to be one of those people who freaks out on a ride or attraction especially since I'm over 40 and it's Sounds Dangerous the attraction most people nap on! I did not want to be someone's funny story of Disney about the crazy lady who lost it with Drew Carey!

So all I could do was sit there while internally I was in full panic mode saying to myself "It's almost over, it's almost over..." while staring at a tiny sliver of light I saw by one of the exit doors. That sliver of light kept me sane...almost.

In my defense, my husband felt a little freaked too.

It does get awfully dark in there and stays that way for some time. I can see how someone would get nervous in there. I am VERY claustrophobic but this one doesn't bother me... but I can see how it can.

I think SD is cute and a nice way to get out of the heat for a little while. Also, I find when it gets dark, I'll close my eyes to really take in the sound effects (like the haircut). I always find myself grabbing the back of my hair to make sure it's still there.

It's a good place to take a cool nap. We went once in about 1998 and have not goine in there again since. Not very exciting.

The one time I "rode it," I had the heeby jeebies the whole time. They reused the headphones at that time (they still may I have no idea) and mine felt damp and it was just icky to me. I couldn't wait to get out of there. I don't like my sweat let alone a strangers!

I think it is the most boring attraction at the Studios. a complete waste of time and space.

 

[Micca]

The original attraction in that space, the Monster Sound Show, was highly entertaining. It has been down hill since that time.

 

[Cruisin]

I find the show itself to be not very exciting.

One time I took my headset off and just listened to the quiet in the room.

Very interesting just how quiet it was with only the occasional reactions to the attraction.

 

[swillis]

We loved it! But my DD12 warns that it may be scary for some as it is COMPLETELY dark. It's perfect to see this while waiting for a fastpast time to Star Tours, or just to get out of the hot sun for a bit.

 

[Disney Girlie-Wirlie]

Yikes! I HATE this attraction. I think it's nothing but a complete waste of time, space, and creativity. There are so many more things they could do with that space.
This attraction completely stinks!

 

[koobs]

Well it looks like I'm not the only one who dislikes this attraction. However, it does look like I'm the only one who is freaked out by it. Sounds Dangerous? Sounds Embarrassing!

 

[TheDoctor]

I did not mind the dark but did not like this attraction. It is very weak.

 

[byoung]

Don't know why they havn't change it.

 

[monymony3471]

Yes, it's a very good place to take a power nap!

 

[SnwflkCts]

Not one of the better attractions for sure! They do keep telling you there is 7 minutes? of darkness ... I guess to help those who might get scared. I am not claustrophobic at all and it didn't bother me. But it was a little damp and those headphones felt icky.

But what was fun were some of the stations and sound booths in the area BEFORE you go in the theater!!! My DH and I had a blast trying to put our voices over the movie at one of the little "booths" plus the sound booths to the right as you walk out. It was kind of neat and relaxing to listen to the story --

Has anyone else done some of those things outside the theater???

 

[sarahj]

My Dh and I saw it once and will NEVER see it again.

 

[DisneyDork712]

I agree with most everyone else. The dark isn't really that bad at all, but the attraction itself is lacking something. It is, however, a nice place to get out of the sun on a hot day.

 

[lovmy2girls]

The original attraction in that space, the Monster Sound Show, was highly entertaining. It has been down hill since that time.

I remember that, I thought it was good. I thought they would have made the same kind of attraction, not that piece of

 

[Pointdisney]

Boring! They should get rid of that for whatever new attraction they are planning for "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire-Play It!" and leave millionaire alone...I'm going to miss that!

 

[Tigger2252]

My family saw this last year and we all thought it was terrible . Disney should have dumped that instead of Millionaire. We always go to that but would NEVER go back to Sounds Dangerous.
