"Cedar Point renamed the coaster Mantis (but the sound the coaster makes as the cars roll, originally intended to sound like a wailing banshee, remains)."

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that the second part of that sentence is completely unsourced. From what I've read of B&M coasters, several (including Kumba and Raptor) make a loud roaring-type noise due to the way the track is constructed. Kendall 03:34, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
