Now that this is confirmed, the discussion will continue on this thread.  https://kicentral.com/forums/topic/50291-official-the-conjuring-is-coming-to-kings-island-haunt/

The confusion creates job security for guest services lol

Mods can we move this thread to the appropriate section? Looks like another thread was created, don’t want KIC users to be confused since this is the original, possibly merge the threads?

Right, but they arent calling this a “Gold w all park passport added SALE. They are calling a gold PASS (or at 6F parks still using the term membership). That would’ve actually cleared the whole thing up. “Renew your GOLD pass for 2026 now, and through Sept 1 (16th or whenever we decide to really end it) you’ll get the AllParkPassport added on for FREE! Enjoy your new season pass, all park access, and the benefits that come with it (including free parking at most of our parks) starting right away. Any of the other add ons, like food, drink and FastLane will be available at your purchasing park now, and at all parks in 2026. 

Probably, I guess a pre-sale purchase counts as "prepare for an immersive plunge into terror" LOL, but it could be interpreted as opening then as well.
