About the Ride Info Box

Monster is a looping steel coaster in Iowa Farm. It opened on June 4, 2016. It is currently the fourth roller coaster operating at the park (counting The Underground, which is technically a roller coaster). It became the park's second steel and looping roller coaster after the Dragon.

It contains an elaborate nighttime lighting system designed by KCL Engineering of Des Moines.

This coaster is also notable for having some of the most threatening warning signs to appear in an amusement park - but not because of the ride. The ride warning signs are typical, but around the ride are warning signs to prevent guests from climbing the fence to retrieve dropped articles. They read:

WARNING
Barbed Wire

BARBED WIRE RISKS SERIOUS INJURY.
DO NOT JUMP FENCE - GO BACK NOW!
LOST ITEMS RETURNED THE NEXT DAY.
VIOLATORS WILL BE EJECTED FROM PARK!

(STOP) CUT YOUR LOSSES...GO BACK!

These signs started appearing around July 6, along with the addition of barbed wire along the inside fencing around the coaster. There are currently over XX of these signs. Adventuerland is serious about preventing someone from doing something foolish.
