Les Cougan

Les Cougan is a fictional character created by Thorpe Park to help market The Swarm the new rollercoaster installed for the 2012 theme park season. 

He would roam around the park warning guests that the world was going to end wearing a board saying "The End Is Coming" and the website LC12.net which linked guests to a count down page that told us the ride name. 

LC12 was the project name for The Swarm and everyone knew the ride as before in the summer 0f 2011 we found out the official name for the attraction.
