In the spirit of The Simpsons, this ride almost feels like a parody of theme parks. It's a motion simulator with the premise that Sideshow Bob has taken over Krustyland as part of an evil scheme, and lots of characters from Springfield make an appearance.
The main part of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter (the smaller Hogsmeade section is in Islands of Adventure), hidden behind a brick wall in the "London" area of the park. The whimsical storefronts are a delight for fans of the series, and the attention to detail means that a walk around the area will reveal lots of interesting touches. If you turn the corner near the Leaky Cauldron you'll find yourself in dim, eerie Knockturn Alley, and don't miss the dragon atop Gringotts Bank that breathes fire every ten to fifteen minutes.
Starting out as a spooky dark ride through the ancient Egyptian tomb of the 1999 Mummy film starring Brendan Frasier, you'll come face to face with the namesake Imohtep, before catapulting away from his curses as the ride turns into a full-throttle roller coaster!
