I think they’re decals that can be peeled off. Not sure, though.

How’s that Madhouse in the Crypt building shaping up for ‘26?

Looks like the gang is here to stay. (Vince Guaraldi’s work outside of the Peanuts is worth getting into if you dig jazz.)

I believe when the ride (re)opened, our Boocifer animatronic had some kind of smoke effect too.

This is utterly surreal to see. Fantastic.

I definitely remember them being around. Maybe behind Delirium? Might’ve been the old antique cars. I’d guess they were used for parts since ‘03? Might be why they’ve seemingly vanished?

Do the extra ride vehicles still? I know two were put in front of the KI Theater for the encore show.

Crazy! My wife and I made it on in about a half hour (80 min posted wait). Good to see this one getting a proper send off. Been on the PT train since the ride closed in ‘02 and was at the opening for Scooby, but I won’t lie. Little sad to see this one go, but am thrilled for what’s coming.

As if this couldn’t get better. Thank you for sharing!

Oh, my 5/3 card is gonna hear about this.

May I suggest the “Phantom Cone” for 2026.

Just what could happen with that queue area alone… This can be really special.

It’s funny, I literally found this site and started posting here because of desire to see this ride return. And here it is. Wow.

https://www.visitkingsisland.com/blog/2025/august/phantom-theater-opening-nightmare-coming-in-2026 “Along the way, the enchanted opera boxes travel through fully built dimensional scenes, including backstage areas, haunted hallways, dressing rooms and a fiery boiler room as they meet other performers who are ready to take the stage. From animatronic forms of Houdelini and The Great Garbanzo to Hilda Bovine and Lionel Burymore, the Phantom Theater’s beloved crew returns, getting caught in the chaos while guests simultaneously search for the ghost notes. New surprises await guests around every corner, including the introduction of Arpeggio, Maestro’s furry feline friend.“

Been up since 6 checking. Ha.

According to the parks Instagram story with a countdown, a bit after 10:00 AM.

I’m going to take a wild guess and say Haunt lantern display,

I wonder how much “say” (current) Six Flags had with this project. Regardless of what is announced, I’d imagine the project was more or less decided on pre-merger, right? Contracts signed, etc. Maybe this is more of a last Cedar Fair addition instead of a first Six Flags addition. Could be totally wrong. Regardless, the hype is real. Saw about eight of the tie die PT shirt (excluding mine, ha) being worn around the park yesterday. Even saw an entire family with matching shirts. Lot of fun. Lot of buzz. Lot of room for disappointment. But to your point, I really hope they can deliver. I know they can, but I don’t know if they will.

No sense in using AI if you have original artwork designed already. Given the pin sets using the original performer posters, I’d assume they’d have the ability to use them within the new ride…. Should it be coming back.

Ditto. Very excited to see what they’re cooking up.

+1 for more merch, especially a hat!

Geez. You just blew my mind with that screenshot. Good times.

I’m betting on it being both.

I’m hoping so too. Kind of a ridiculous concept.
