Valhalla (Blackpool Pleasure Beach) lift hill, but only briefly. This was previously the main theme for the ride. Furthermore, two similar pieces of music (which could even be different sections from the same piece) can be heard upon both leaving and re-entering the ride's station. Given the complexity of the ride system and expensive effects used Valhalla has very high running costs which reach £147,000 per month in peak season. The ride also has reliability issues. Moreover, Valhalla uses one third of the whole park's power supply. Valhalla (Blackpool Pleasure Beach) Valhalla is a large indoor dark ride at Pleasure Beach Blackpool in Lancashire,
Blackpool Pleasure Beach in 1935. Paige had designed numerous other rides at the Pleasure Beach, including the "Rollercoaster", another wooden coaster that was constructed on the site of The Velvet Coaster in 1933. The success of Paiges' wooden coasters resulted in a complete reprofiling of the Big Dipper in 1936, which was extended towards the south-westerly side of the park. During this time Thompson hired Joseph Emberton, an award-winning architect who was brought in to redesign the architectural style of the Pleasure Beach rides and buildings, working on The Casino Building, Noah's Ark and the "Ice Drome", a 2,000 seat ice rink.
