Space Invader 2 is an enclosed, sit down roller coaster at the Pleasure Beach in Blackpool, England.

The ride was built in 1984, and was refurbished by KumbaK Coasters and renamed in 2003.

Space Invader 2 operates single car trains. Riders are arranged inline in three rows for a total of three riders per car with a T-bar restraint.

On July 21, 2000, 11-year-old Christopher Sheratt died after he fell out of the ride vehicle.[1] Reports say that Sheratt panicked on the dark ride and unfastened his seatbelt.
