When Six Flags converted Aurora, Ohio's Geauga Lake into a major player in the theme park world for the year 2000, two new super-hero-themed coasters rose from the ground up - Batman Knight Flight [now Dominator] and Superman: Ultimate Escape [now Steel Venom]. But where every super-hero is, there must be a villain. So Villain, a new steel-supported, wooden-tracked double out & back coaster from Custom Coasters International was on the rise as well. Villain's four-thousand feet of track was soon in place, and, on May 5th, 2000, Six Flags World of Adventure [now known as Geauga Lake] opened up its gates for the first time ever with the Six Flags flying overhead, and so did Villain. As well as being the Ohio park's first double out & back scream machine, the Villain also brings the Ohio Six Flags park's wooden-tracked coaster count up to an above-average three, joining the single out & back 1926 Big Dipper terrain woodie and the 1920's-inspired twisting wooden Raging Wolf Bobs.

Off of the loading platform, Villain's 2-abreast, 24-passenger train swivels around an S-curve and U-turn to the left, then the click-clanking begins as the lift tows riders up to a peak of 120 feet. The rails aim downwards and the Villain gets moving down a first drop totaling out at 112 vertical feet, taken at a maximum of 56 degrees. The course engages on some low-altitude surprises with some high-speed hops, then heads for the first mid-course turnaround, sweeping riders around 180-degrees of the turnaround and heading back down. Up next are several more hops, giving out some more moments of negative-g fun, and Villain completes the first 50% of the double-out & back layout with the second of three mid-course turnarounds, this time curving around and running parallel with the first leg of the journey. Passengers head through the coaster's structure and fly past metal support framework over a third series of ascents and descents. Villain runs around the third turnaround with a last U-turn built inside of the first, then finally completes the last hop and meanders back to the starting point.

Villain rounded out the Geauga Lake coaster collection nicely and gave any wooden coaster lover their third reason to visit Aurora, Ohio! But the Villain could not rein forever, as Geauga Lake closed its doors forever in 2007, and all of the rides and coasters along with it. Despite all hopes that the coaster might be purchased and moved to another park, it was simply not meant to be, and the coaster was sold for $30,000 at an auction to a local scrap dealer.
