buchers

EXCEPT>.....I am pretty sure (if I remember correctly) that if you turn over that magical season pass you would find the phrase "not valid for FearFest" So, no....it wasnt a perk. My pass says absolutely NOTHING about "not valid for FearFest" on the back.

So skjackson had a bad time, so what. Not every trip I have made to KI over the last 10 years has been enjoyable either. I agree 100% when people say it is too busy to enjoy anything. Even Friday nights are getting to be that way too! This is supposed to be a place for people to come and post their experoences at the park, weather they are good or bad. We are all entitled to our opinion and the negativity when someone poest a bad review is getting old fast. As far as passholders whining about a possible upcharge this year goes, I agree with them because I am one of them! My pass was bought with the Halloween event listed as a perk. If they charged me an upcharge just because they changed the name I would have been highly P.O.'d! As it stands now I doubt I will be buying passes for me and my family next year because I think it sucks they will be charging passholders to get in. The event is decent but it's really no different than Fear Fest last year. A fat guy putting a nail in his nose, laying on nails, and hitting on every underage girl in the place doesn't make the event scarier, neither does "dead" teenagers singing about rehab. (In all fairness, Dead Awakening had great performers, it just wasn't my type of show)

Alcoloisim is a disease. If you're once an alcoholic you're always an alcoholic. (Just a recovering alcoholic.) Continue to work your 10 step program and you'll be fine. Umm...I hope you know my post was a joke. Although I was an alcoholic (haven't had a drink in over 10 years now) I was just pointing out how ridiculous people can get with being offended by just about anything.

YES! Since I am a former alcoholic I find the keg stand display very distasteful! I want KI to remove it immediately or I will never spend another dime in their parks again! Seeing this display almost made me relapse and start drinking again. The memories of sweet, sweet Budweiser on tap came flooding....back....into ......my......(in my best Homer Simpson voice)..mmmmmm....beer.... In all seriousness, if ya don't like something don't go or don't look, it's really that simple. What you find offensive may not be offensive to others and what others think is offensive you may think is perfectly fine. Point is, everyone is different. There are plenty of things for everyone to do at HH this year. If you don't like one area just go to another, or go watch a show, or go ride some rides. I can't believe they wacked Patrick either! Nooooooooo!!!!!

I just wish they would put trains on The Beast and SOB that "fluffy" people could ride in!

^ What a dork!!! But I say that in the best possible way cause I am a dork too! Looks like you sure had a good time, loved the dance. hehe My wife either hits me or runs when I do stuff like that in public, she's no fun, no fun at all I tell ya!

Yes it does Karen. I know my parents taught me to act like I had sense when in public and I teach my kids the same thing. These girls were saying things Andrew Dice Clay would say, it was embarassing and made them look like total idiots. There was a group of church kids a little ways back and they were looking at them like they needed Jesus! I'm just glad my daughter wasn't in line with me to hear the things they were saying.

Yes she is, and very pretty too. She has a great voice, much better than Britney!

This is my first trip report so I hope it is ok. (Date should say the 12th cause we went Friday night) Me, my wife, my friend from work, and my daughter and her boyfriend went to HH last night, some of us for the 3rd time this year. When we got to the park at 7 we got through the toll booth and found a parking space just fine. We then got in the long line to go through the metal detectors and then proceeded to the long line to get into the park. It didn't take too terribly long at either of these though. Once inside my wife was immediately scared by a girl pushing a baby carriage. I had seen the thing last week and told my wife to come look at the little baby. When she got up to the front of the carriage to look in the girl activated the baby and it jumped up scaring the crap out of my wife. It was great, although my wife didn't think so. hehe First thing we did was head to Club Blood. My wife wouldn't go through so me and my friend went through. Daughter and her boyfriend stayed with my wife to guard her from the spooks. Now I had went through CB last week and it wasn't that great, but this week it was awesome! They added some things to it since last week. There were more vampires, an area that had a few dead bodies hanging from the ceiling you had to walk through, and you walked closer to the chick that was eating the corpse. Oh, and the guy on the bungee device just appeared out of the darkness then disappeared back into it. Last week you could see him and his device, both coming and going. This week the effect was awesome. Also, last week we were like 3 or 4 feet from the girl eating the corpse, this week we were inches away from her. The changes this week really made the haunt a whole lot better. The only bad thing is I only got a quick glimpse of the hot vampire chick I have been lusting over for the last few weeks. Maybe I can see more of her next week. In the line for CB we were in between 2 groups of girls. The group in front of us were very well behaved, the ones behind us were very rude, loud, and vulgar. They kept talking about sex and saying they loved every guy they saw. We were grouped with the girls in front of us and they were clinging on to me most of the way through. They were so cute. hehe I kept telling them it was ok and that it was almost over. They actually froze in place during one point! The rude girls caught up to us and was yelling for them to "Get the F out of the way". I told them to shut up and leave them alone, which they didn't like too well but they didn't say anything to me or the girls after I yelled at them. When we exited the girls we were grouped with said "Thank you for everything in there", I thought that was nice. They were so cute and well mannered, wish all kids were as good as they were. After CB we rode Adventure Express and Racer. By then the park was packed. It had not been half as busy the last 2 Fridays. Lines for haunts were rediculous. I was thinking that maybe an up-charge for passholders may not be a bad thing afterall last night. Guess we'll just have to wait and see next year. We mostly walked around the park taking pictures the rest of the night. We ended up leaving around 11. Oh, by the way, I met the perfect woman last night. She was so perfect I had my wife take a picture of us together. She's perfect! Little skinny but at least she is a cheap date!

It's not that bad, at least I don't think it is. If he is ok at the front gates he should be fine walking around the park.

Friday nights have been pretty good so far this year. It is busy but not extremely packed. Longest wait for anything we did last week was 15 minutes, that's not too bad at all. As far as the kids go, I feel your pain. I see these kids and wonder "Did I act that stupid when I was that age?", sad thing is I probably did. The thing I hate the most at KI is the kids with basketballs. I, for one, would not miss those things one bit it KI got rid of them! Guess I'm gettin' old too.

LOL...this I gotta see! I think I saw Karen at the front gate last Fri but wasn't sure if I should say hello or not. (I'm kinda shy when meeting someone new)

I also would rather have Coke stay at the park, I prefer regular Coke over Pepsi, and Mountain Dew, Pepsi's best drink in my opinion, is just ok. I prefer Coke as well, with an occasional Dr. Pepper every now and then. Mostly been drinking Lo-Carb Monster energy drink lately though, trying to lose some weight so trying to stay away form the Coke. Still need my caffeine buzz in the morning though so Monster is great! The only time I ever liked Pepsi was when I was a little kid at my grandma's house. She always had ice cole Pepsi in those returnable bottles. I loved that stuff back then.

Opening night it was but this past Friday wasn't. Oh, the chick was still hot, but she wore more clothing this time around. First week she had on a teddy, this week she had on a long silk nightgown. I saw it last night and apparently they have changed a lot from what most have said opening night was like. Every one of the performers were decently covered and I didn't notice a lot of foul language, maybe one word but that was it. Come to think of it, I don't remember hearing the song that said "bxtch" several times in it this past Friday night but I did hear it on opening night.

Opening night it was but this past Friday wasn't. Oh, the chick was still hot, but she wore more clothing this time around. First week she had on a teddy, this week she had on a long silk nightgown. Speaking of hot chicks, there is one in Club Blood that is smokin' hot. She was right before the dude on the bungee cord aparatus. I went through that place 4 times just to check her out!!

You must have saw the same vampire chick I did! She was smokin HOTT!!!

It was just boring and nothing really that impressive. The nail in the nose was cool but the rest was kinda lame.

I went last night as well and even though I had a good time I didn't think it was very different than the past few years. I took my daughter and her boyfriend so I didn't get to go through any haunts because they are chicken, but we did get to ride a few things and walk around and take things in. We also checked out the Torture Chamber and Dead Awakening shows and thought that both were pretty lame. The Great Baldweenie was terrible, he only did half of the things that were advertised. Some things were pretty cool though, like the nail in his nose, but the rest was kinda lame. The Dead Awakening show was just not my kind of show. I just do not enjoy shows like that but I will say that all the performers sang and danced their hearts out and tried very hard to put on a good show. There were many people walking out of the show but I stayed till the end because I think it is rude to walk out like that, especially when the performers were doing so well. The blonde girl that is the "star" of the show was very pretty btw. She could have just stood there for 20 minutes and I could have watched her and been happy!! haha We walked around and checked out all the haunts even though we never went into one. Club Blood looks interesting and I will definately be checking it our when I go with my friends again next Friday. The vampire chick that was outside near the entrance when the park first opened was very pretty too. Definately got me interested in going through the attraction, if only to see her again! Gotta check out Red Beard's Revenge next week too, that one looks cool. If they only had a haunted ninja attraction they would have the best of both worlds! Next year, when they do not include Halloween Haunt admission with season passes, I will go only once if at all. After seeing last night I just don't feel it will be worth paying an upcharge for. It was the 1st night though so I will cut them some slack. I hope it improves over the next few weeks though.

I wouldn't buy passes for my famimly if I knew HH was going to be an upcharge event. We usually go very early in the season 2 or 3 times, skip the Summer months because it is so busy and hot, and finish up the season by going to FearFest (now Halloween Haunt) every weekend. We go more in October than the entire rest of the season!! Being busy in Oct doesn't bother me at all because we usually just ride coasters then. Last year almost everything was walk-on, longest we waited was for Face Off and that was only 10 minutes, it was great! We hit the scare zones, which all suck except for Cornstalkers, and the Headless Hollow or whatever it was called last year. I love the haunted houses but love riding the coasters more.

I have bought my passes for the last 4 years because of the fact that I could go to Fear Fest for free. I go every weekend during October, its really when I get the most out of my pass. If they decide to charge for admission this year I will not be going even once! Especially since when I bought my pass admission was included. Saying "Your pass included admission to Fear Fest but we no longer have Fear Fest, we have Halloween Haunt now" is just splitting hairs. If passholders get screwed out of free admission because of a name change there will be some seriously PO'd people! I will also save my money next year and not buy passes for me and my family. Halloween is my favorite time of year and Fear Fest, Halloween Haunt, Scary F'n Halloween Horror Fest That Will Make Small Children Crap Their Pants and Cry For Their Momma, or whatever they call it in the future is something that me and my family look forward to every year. Haunted houses are too expensive to go to anymore and the Halloween event at KI was great. Let's just hope they don't have an upcharge for passholders. On a side note, Club Blood looks like it will be some serious eye candy for the guys!!

"Carnival of Carnage" and "The Ringmaster"? Are they doing the whole ICP "Dark Carnival" theme this year? BTW - Those are ICP's first 2 albums in case anyone didn't know.

Technically nothing is illegal until you get caught!

And the sin in question is an abomination in the eyes of the Lord. So is having sex with an animal and "knowing" a woman when she is "unclean" (time of the month). Myself, I think the last couple things I listed are just common sense, who would want to do either? blechhh And when we do people get offended and angry with us. Telling people what Jesus has done for you is called witnessing, and it is what we are supposed to do. We are not trying to force our religion on anyone, at least I'm not. I can only tell people what He has done for me, they are the ones that have to make the decision to follow Christ themselves. Coasterfan, your entire post was very well said. Rumor Smasher, I hope you have a good time at the event.

DZ is down for the same reason SOB is, they're putting a loop in!!

That would be a whole lot of school supplies!!
