I'll take it!

I agree, I too am curious what the building looks like gutted, however I feel like KI is going to keep it a secret (unless some pictures get leaked) until the ride officially opens in 2026.

I wonder if they would take the old BBOBH props from KI and make a new Boo Blasters at Cedar Point, nowadays I think CP is lacking a dark ride since the removal of Disaster Transport.

I feel that, I haven't had such anticipation for a ride since Mystic Timbers.

All these speculations on what is going on with the old Vortex land... meanwhile we all know deep down its going to be another Coca-Cola refresh station!

In my opinion the purple castle worked very well with the Scooby-Doo theming but when the years went by and it was changed over to Boo Blasters, it became sort of an eyesore and it has gotten dirty damaged and even one of the fangs from the mouth is damaged. Could it be modified for the Phantom Theater Opening Nightmare? Yes I believe so but I would love to see a new opening, but nonetheless I'm excited to see the Phantom Theater return regardless of what the entrance looks like.

KI Guest: "They have the old Son of Beast loop in the KI warehouse. I heard they are taking that loop and adding it on to The Beast!" My reaction:

I've been missing this entrance, what a nostalgia trip if they brought it back!

I like the Bruce Springsteen idea and during Christmas you can play his famous "Santa Clause is coming to town" but Billy Joel is my literal favorite of all time both are great ideas however I think The Racer is perfect the way it is.

I would love that so much, also correct me if I'm wrong but wasnt there creepy sound effects outside the original PT building too?

Hmmm... any predictions?

That's awesome! I think at night that would be a very good experience to hear the music of The Phantom Theater! Also is anybody else hoping the new Phantom Theater Opening Nightmare will be dark as it was in the original? I'm hopping its not lit up all the way through like Boo Blasters/SD&THC.

Yeah I would love to see more buggies return but sadly I don't see it happening.

I love the irony in that!

Night rides on WindSeeker are always my favorite. Honestly I love both CP & KI WindSeekers however at CP I do enjoy being by the water at night it's very calming.

The Monster was always the first ride we rode whenever we went to Coney Mall, followed by the Zephyr. I love night rides on both!

No but you get a discount if you use your season pass.

Honestly I miss the old Paramount maps.

I don't know how "legal" it is but there is word that the Dippin' Dots guy has some inside info...

A guest pointed to Flight of Fear and said "Yeah they moved Disaster Transport from Cedar Point to Kings Island!"

I honestly do hope they bring back the Peppers Ghost affect, with the g I would love for them to bring back the Peppers Ghost affect, but if they do bring back the glass, I hope people now would be more respectful now because back then people would spit and throw gum on the glass wall. But I would honestly would love for it to return because when I was a kid that was the most amazing scene.

I wonder if they have already started putting in the new props for the new ride, I do have a feeling that most if not all the Boo Blaster props have been removed. I do wonder what kind of easter eggs are in store for us for the new ride, if they are going to make references to the original Phantom Theater or the other rides that once occupied the building.

Out of all the removed rides at Kings Island... the removal of Vortex hit me the hardest and I still miss it to this day
