Doom & Sons was a former attraction in the Talbot Street area of Alton Towers theme park, Staffordshire, England. The attraction was opened in 1981 and was Alton Towers's first haunted attraction. It was a walk-through with illusions, interactive features and sensory effects. Doom & Sons closed in 1991, to be superseded by the new Haunted House the following year.

Legacy[edit]

Doom & Sons was first referenced in The World of David Walliams as a small poster in Raj's Shop that opened in 2021. In 2023, it had a big reference outside The Curse at Alton Manor, as a box that says 'Doom & Sons Funeral Care'
