    Early Haunt 2018 Reviews

    in Kings Island

    The problem with Haunted Homecoming is that it was written for a different park in what I assume is a smaller venue; I think Cedar Fair pretty much foisted it on the folks at Kings Island and they did their best with it.  The soundtrack is poor and I think it just spotlights how good KiE's original works have been over the years.  I feel bad for the performers who are working really hard to make this material as good as possible.

    Or someone got butthurt over Hot Blooded being “too inappropriate” (obviously not paying attention to the many warnings before the show) so they had to result to this.

    I'm curious if this will be Killmart's last year due to the Antique Cars or if they'll coexist right next to each other.

    They can always relocate Killmart (maybe put it in The Enchanted Theater)

    Now that I think about it, they could make PS a HolidayHorror scare zone and maybe revive/revamp the maze from a few years ago.

     

    Fun Fact: Holiday Horror was the first maze I ever went through at Haunt!

    From my understanding, Planet Snoopy will be totally closed off this year during Haunt. It's supposedly so they can get that area ready for Winterfest while Haunt is still going on. 

     

    Also, I think this year will be a very interesting year for Haunt. With last year being the first year of Haunt followed almost immediately by Winterfest, I think we will see a little more of a different layout with Haunt. For example, I think we won't see the train operate during Haunt in addition to Planet Snoopy being closed off. I think they will use that time to better prepare certain attractions/ares for Winterfest.

    Thoughts?

    I would have to agree with that to an extent. I think PS will be closed to Haunt this year for maybe a few reasons:

    1) PS will be expanding in 2019 & they need to begin work on the area.

    2) SC will be getting some work done for 2019 & they need to move The Great Pumpkin Fest over to PS & making it 100% dedicated to just that.

    3) It may be just dues to WF

    They just revamped Hot Blooded last Haunt, so i doubt that they'll get rid of it. We'll just have to wait and see! I personally love Hot Blooded so I would be happy if it comes back :) 

    They could always use the set for another show.

    I think they're just testing the site. I'm not seeing any changes from last year, and the menus at the top contain all of the same things found there on the main website, including things that make no sense on the Haunt website like Education Days. It looks like just a CSS skin plus three extra pages (home page linked above plus the attractions page and the calendar). Definitely a test.

    Hot Blooded has been removed from the shows page

    Enchanted Theatre Return?!

    This is being talked about here:



    I will say....I hope it just means Carn-evil is gone (as much as I like it). I was hoping there'd be an actual show in there, but I'll have to swing by anyway just to check the venue out again. I miss it as Enchanted Theater. 

    This is only talking about the Enchanted Theatre...

    And yes, I hope Carn-evil bit the dust!

    Future Park & Chain "Mascot"

    in Coming Attractions

    Posted

    Today, Attraction Magazine released an article about Cedar Fair renewing the licensing agreement with Peanuts Worldwide until 2025 (8 years). What could be the fate of The Peanuts in the parks once this agreement ends? If CF decides to not renew the license in 2025, what could be the park/chain's new "mascot"?
