The Raven is a wooden roller coaster at Holiday World in Santa Claus, Indiana. It was (up until the completion of The Voyage, which broke several world records), and perhaps is, the most popular of the roller coasters there. It was completed in 1995 and features a 120 foot underground tunnel & cars built by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company.
In 2005 it was voted the #5 Best Wooden Roller Coaster in the World by Amusement Today Magazine.
