Le Vampire (English: The Vampire) is an inverted roller coaster at La Ronde amusement park in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, designed by the Swiss firm Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M). Its track is identical to Batman: The Ride, but the roller coaster has no association to the Batman franchise and was given an unrelated name and a slightly different cosmetic appearance.

The track is 823 metres in length and reaches a height of nearly 32 metres. Riders sit with their legs dangling such as on a ski chairlift and reach speeds of up to 80.5 km/hour and loop head-over-heels five times. The Vampire can carry up to 1,400 riders per hour.

Le Vampire was constructed by Martin & Vleminckx.^[1]

The ride was closed due to an accident on July 6, 2012. It opened for the first time since the incident on August 13, 2012.^[2] On September 3, 2015, the park announced that the ride would run backwards for a limited time during the 2016 season and become part of a new section of the park.^[3]
