CornSTALKERS is longer than in past years. Don't forget -- last night was just Day 1.

There's a good reason for no reentry. Simply put, the demographic they are attracting is the upper teenage age range, and they don't want to risk people going to their cars and partaking in drinking. It's also so that parents aren't tempted to bring their kids in to 'test the waters'. This event is not for children. Period.

What are your thoughts on the new Halloween Haunt?

Halloween Haunt will include graphic scenes, suggestive themes and intense imagery and is intended for mature audiences. Parents, please be advised. The time has finally come as Kings Island unveils its new Halloween Haunt. From twice the number of monsters and a longer haunt time until 1 a.m. to new highly-intense and terrifying attractions, the all-new Halloween Haunt at Kings Island opened to rave reviews September 28-29. “Halloween Haunt was a fantastic Halloween event,” park guest Charles Infosino said. “There were so many offerings that I probably enjoyed no more than half of them. My favorite was Club Blood. I will be back at the park at least two more times this season for Halloween Haunt and Nick or Treat.” Jim Massie from Ohio Valley Haunts noted, "Creatures come crawling, sliding and roaming from all directions at the most unexpected moments. Eight uniquely haunted mazes, three differently themed fear zones and live attractions, combined with nearly a dozen of the world’s best thrill rides result in a night of Halloween entertainment that’s possibly unsurpassed." At this new event, you can visit Club Blood, where anyone can get in, but not many can get out. Climb aboard the pirate ship, but look out for ol Red Beard. Red Beards Revenge lets you come aboard, but can you make it past the swashbucklers and make it out alive? Enter the dark carnival of CarnEVIL and pass by demented clowns and 3D passages in this circus-gone-mad. Learn an all new meaning of the word TORTURE in Death Row, travel through the haunted woods of the Trail of Terror, find out what's wrong with that house on the hill that has rumors of strange inhabitants in Massacre Manor, and much much more!! Click here to see general photos of Halloween Haunt! You can see a video tribute to Halloween Haunt by clicking . The highlight of the new Halloween Haunt event is the entertainment lineup, including the Torture Chamber where you can see the Great Baldini walk on glass, lay on a bed of nails, hang weights from his eyes, and more! Paramount Theatre Fri & Sat, 8:00, 9:00, 10:00, 12:00 The must see event of Halloween Haunt is the new Dead Awakening show. Do you ever have strange dreams? Do you ever dream of dying? Have you ever wondered what would happen if your imagination got the best of you? This show is clearly one of the best shows that Kings Island has offered in the past decade, and was produced in house by the entertainment department. A visit to Halloween Haunt is not complete without seeing Dead Awakening! International Showplace Fri & Sat, 8:30. 9:30, 11:30, 12:30 Gates to the underworld for Halloween Haunt are open from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m. every Friday and Saturday night through October 27 and daily from 7 p.m. to midnight October 28-31.

Looking at the progress already done, either B&M has other coasters up their sleeves or this ride will be MUCH larger than I'm imagining it.

so was it because of my topic i started or haunt guy calling my dad a whale? Essentially.... yes....

Just think of the WIIFM "What's in it for me?" As Kings Island fans, now Cedar Fair will have more money to invest into profitable parks like Kings Island than loose money at parks like Geauga Lake. You're coming out ahead.

A very important person at Kings Island has always said that it's a good thing that you [members of KIC] complain about stuff... it means you care.

I was over at GeaugaLakeToday.com (I wouldn't stop by there right now -- they ain't happy) and someone posted some photos of Thunderhawk being removed as well as what appears to be some flat rides and the Dominator and Thunderhawk trains being prepped for shipping. Notice that the downhill part of the initial drop on Thunderhawk has been removed. This is almost exactly how they began the removal of X-Flight Thunderhawk's trains being prepped for shipping? Dominator's trains being readied for transport? Dominator still stands untouched as of the other day... What appears to be some flat ride and flat ride accessories ready to be shipped/sold/scrapped. If you want to read the thread about it on GL Today, click here.

If enthusiasts made up 10%... no 5%... no 1% of the park's attendance, we'd be able to have a KIC event every week.

Thanks for giving me a target to scare Friday night. Fortunately for him, you're in CornSTALKERS, which is the least scary and weakest of all of the scare zones. BURN!!!!

Yeah i agree...Kings Island should not encorage masochism. I'm sorry. I must have missed the press release in which Kings Island said they encouraged masochism.

HEY I GO W/ MY DADAND MOM EVERY YEAR WILL I BE ABLE TO GET INTO CLUB BLOOD W/ HIM AND MY MOM PS: IM 14 Kings Island isn't your parents, so they're not going to stop you. However, it's your parents responsibility to know the content of the Halloween Haunt attractions by reading and comprehending the warnings. It's their call.

Basically if someone makes a post that's in violation of the Terms of Service agreed to when you signed up for these forums, I just delete it and deal with it on an individual level. However, sometimes we can't get to single posts fast enough and someone makes some sort of rude comment and 5 or 10 people respond to it with more rude comments. At that point, it's hard to salvage the thread.

I'm back and forth about CF saying it would do no good. It kind of stinks to stomp out the element of hope, however Cedar Fair's honesty says a lot.

Most adult rides will run at night similar to Halloweekends. Unfortunately, NOTHING is off limits for Halloween Haunt, so the squeamish may have to toughen up!!

Due to the many many TOS violations, the thread was removed.

Maybe, maybe not. I'm willing to guess that they'll have it open to passholders from 10 to 5 and then close it from 5-7 and reopen as an upcharge for HH. Then again, you'll just have to wait until the park announces how they're going to handle it.

Yes, it is. Back in March? I believe I was walking by Bill's Giggle coaster and saw a hawk sitting on the track. As I walked by, it hid under the hill, and as I kept going it jumped back up on top of the track. I am assuming there was a nest under there. Was the highlight of my day........ Don't forget the ducks that take refuge in the Royal Fountain when it's not on.

That is a decision that has not been made yet.

They used a ton of fog in the midways and stuff. They also did a great job of decorating the park.
