There were a bunch of people taping it. I have the first 30 seconds before my battery ran out. That happened to me too.

Here is a video I took for Media Day!

I have to say the inline twist, that is just flat out awesome.

And just to kind of wrap up this thread... If you didn't know... Banshee Media Day and Scream for a Kid Again are both TODAY, and tomorrow is Opening Day 2014! Let's make this a great season everybody!

It's been a long, chaotic off-season. But, it's just about over. There's been a lot going on at Kings Island this off-season, like The Bat re-theme/repaint, the Chicken Shack, Coaster Connection, Cirque Imagine, a new marquee sign, and much more. This is sure to be one of the best Kings Island seasons ever. To sort of end the topic, we will once again go to Closing Day 2013. I wrote one of my favorite trip reports from that day, which can be found here. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php/topic/28729-kings-island-closing-day-102713-ptr/ And, to conclude my exactly 2,000th post, I would like to say a big thank you to everyone for participating in the thread. And I hope everyone has a great 2014 season at Kings Island! Just 1 DAY until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 2 DAYS until Opening Day 2014!

I personally think it goes a lot slower with school. But I only have one more day of school until... You know. Kings Island Closing Day 2013 Part 1/2 Soon the time came for the last day of the season, Closing Day. We got bobble-heads, rode some rides, and had some fun. But that is also the sad end of a season at Kings Island. Here is another video, showing one last day of Kings Island I took. You might even see yourself in it! The days are so slow... But this wait should be over soon. Just 2 DAYS until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 3 DAYS until Opening Day 2014! Hang in there!

On the last Friday of Haunt, I took my friend for his first Haunt visit. We did not go in any Haunts. The scare-actors were much more than enough for him. Anyways, here is a video I took on that day. The off season is soooo close to ending. Just 3 DAYS until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 4 DAYS until Opening Day 2014!

And here is an aerial shot of Banshee taken from KingsIslandPR on Twitter on October 20th. https://twitter.com/KingsIslandPR/statuses/392005327178055680 We are so close! Just 4 DAYS until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again and 5 DAYS until Opening Day 2014!

I thought today I would include one of davidw's webcam time lapse videos. This one was in mid-October and includes a lot of the dive loop construction. Just 5 DAYS until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 6 DAYS until Opening Day 2014!

No. We still have a few days until the Closing Day part... Don't spoil it! On October 9th, Kings Island posted this picture to their twitter showing the first drop of Banshee completed! https://twitter.com/KingsIslandPR/statuses/388024413435609088 Just 6 DAYS until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 1 WEEK until Opening Day 2014! Have a great last weekend before Banshee everybody!

I think we can get to $100,000! Here is my page:http://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/lucasfields/screamforakidagain

I knew I'd have to post this at some point, so here it goes! On October 4th, KICentral had an unofficial meetup for Haunt. I went in a grand total of 3 Haunts, which was 3 times the amount of haunts I did the previous year! So I don't want to hear any complaining about a lack of Haunts I went through. That was my personal limit. That's a video that includes Haunt stuff, wall of monsters, and jcgoble3 and my mom screaming! http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php/topic/28527-kings-island-10413-kic-haunt-night-ptr/ And a trip report including rides, info, Haunt reviews, funny stuff, ect. In just 1 WEEK, or 7 days, there will be Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and there is 8 more days until Opening Day 2014!

Kings Island also debuted "Scream Like A Banshee" on Friday nights during Haunt for 2013. Here is a video made by Kings Island showing off the competition. Just 8 more days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 9 more days until Opening Day 2014! No more double digits!

After the mini-off-season, Haunt started, and I also shot this video on Sunday, September 22nd. It is short and has a lot of background conversation, but here it is! After a long time, the countdown has FINALLY reached the single digits. Just 9 more days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 10 more days until Opening Day 2014!

After the birthday bash came the mini off-season between the regular season and Haunt (which is actually longer than the time remaining before Banshee opens). But, work continued as Banshee's lift hill started going up! https://twitter.com/KingsIslandPR/statuses/380430867224489984 Time to start all the countdowns, just 10 days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 11 more days until Opening Day 2014!

It truly is not the same walking during the tour and during the Haunt. The tour has lights on and no distractions by people scaring you. During the Haunt, people make efforts to scare you, which is not the most enjoyable thing in the world. I still believe Madame Fatales should be removed immediately and some kind of top spin, and kind, should be placed back into The Crypt's old building. But few people agree with me on that. As for why my scaredy-cat mom did it, I don't know, feel free to ask her. Anyways, as I said about an hour ago, here is some videos from that event. Just 11 more days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 12 more days until Opening Day 2014!

On September 8th, another KIC event occurred, the Birthday Bash. There was tours, dollar days, Todd Frazier, rides, and more! But my favorite part had to be walking in the old Crypt building. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php/topic/28405-kings-island-central-birthday-bash-2013-ptr/ Tomorrow I'll post some videos from that day. We are moving out of the teens! Just 12 more days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 13 more days until Opening Day 2014!

Kings Island soon started doing there own construction videos. This is one from early September. Just 13 more days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again and 2 more weeks until Opening Day 2014!

Say what?!? What the spellcheck... I just looked up brioche. It's... Bread.

For Labor Day weekend in 2013, Dollar Days returned to Kings Island. https://twitter.com/KingsIslandPR/statuses/373880040544403456 Just 2 WEEKS, or 14 days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 15 more days until Opening Day 2014!

Here is another Coasterbob62 video showing off Banshee construction continuing towards late August. Just 15 more days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 16 more days until Opening Day 2014!

Sorry for another delay, my sister has been using the laptop for 4 hours. Anyways, in mid August, vertical construction began on Banshee with the brake run. https://twitter.com/KingsIslandPR/statuses/370333556704165888 There is now a simple formula for finding out the numbers of days left. For Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, 17 - x (x=date 4/x) = d (d = amount of days left), and for Openinng Day 18 - x (x=date 4/x) = d (d = amount of days left). And even though it may be April Fools Day, it is April, and it is no joke that Kings Island opens THIS MONTH. Just 16 more days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 17 more days until Opening Day 2014!

^Yes, I have some odd commentary... Here is a better video taken at a similar date by CoasterBob62. Today was Reds Opening Day, which means we are getting very close! Just 17 more days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 18 days until Opening Day 2014!
