Adams Family Coaster

Halloween is indeed a holiday. What have you people been smokin'? What makes you believe that Halloween is not a holiday? And, just because you don't get holiday pay does not mean it's not a holiday. That has absolutely nothing to do with anything. BTW, it was originally called All Hallow's Eve.

  • Holy Thread Bump.    It's funny. Rumors of Winterfest's return, rumblings about Antique Cars... Some things never change! Obviously The Adams Family theme is out of the question, but wi

    This would of been a cool concept if Paramount had went through with it, but hey who knows what the future holds for Kings Island!

  • Yeah it would I always stick around in Hanna-Barbera/Nick Central/Rivertown/Coney anyway so if a flat would come it would be great news to me.

Didn't you people see The Nightmare Before Christmas? There was a tree for every real holiday, and Halloween was one of them.

This is Halloween! This is Halloween! Pumpkins scream in the dead of night...

I think the Adams family coaster sounds dumb. It will be cool if it is done right but I dont see them doin it.

I'm willing to say that a short Fearfest may just not include the first weekend in November.

I beg to differ Halloween isnt a holiday its a day for kids and to be scared but is not a holiday sorry guys...The Nightmare Before Christmas is just a movie a great movie I might add but I'm sorry I just dont think Halloween is a holiday.But yes I hear FearFest will be short like boddaH said.

That's fine if you feel that Halloween is not a holiday. But, last time I checked my caledar, it is a nationally recognized holiday. I guess you don't think presidnt's day or Martin Luther King Day is a holiday either? I am just wondering why you think Halloween is not a holiday.

holiday

\Hol`i*day\, a. 1. Of or pertaining to a festival; cheerful; joyous; gay. --Shak.

2. Occurring rarely; adapted for a special occasion.

There you go.

I also think Halloween is a holiday.

Yes, Halloween is a holiday. Being a father of a 3 and 2 year old, the only holiday that is more meaningful than Christmas is Halloween. (You just can't beat Santa) My wife and I split time taking our kids trick-or-treating this year. It is sheer joy watching your kids going to neighbors' homes and walk back to the sidewalk with the largest grin because they asked for a $.03 piece of candy, and someone gave it to them.

Just because it is not a paid holiday, does not mean that it is not a holiday. If you want to argue about the holiday issue, let's talk about Sweetest Day. Now that is completly a made up holiday by Hallmark and FTD.

I partake in presidnt's day and Martin Luther King Day( Martin Luther King was a great man and if there is one thing I hate its biggots!) I dont care much for Halloween why because One very evil tradition is the celebration of Halloween.

To me Halloween is very Evil so please dont be mad if I dont share your love for a so-called holiday called Halloween.

Yeah Sweetest day is a rip off!!!

I respect that Scooby. I agree that originally, Halloween was an evil type of holiday, but you have to admit that it is a shadow of its' former self. Halloween is not even really celebrated for the same reasons as it used to be. Kind of like Christmas; it's mostly a commercial racquet except for those who are religious.

Thank you, I used to trick or Treat when I was younger but I grew up and read about Halloween's orgins and its really evil or was which ever you perfer.Hey to be honest I WOULD prob still trick or treat but thats kinda hard to do on campus biggrin.gif

go OFF campus... duh! candy is candy! ha ha ha!

i am taking my neice next year, and nephew if he wants to...

Actually, it has been the corporation executives that have made Halloween evil. The traditional Halloween marked the day before All Saints Day, where the saints would disguise themselves as dead saints. Now this would be the Catholic twist to it, or at least what I could remember from school. Here is a link for another aspect of Halloween:Celtic version

It has just taken a different turn for the sake of $$. Just like St. Valentines Day (give a overpriced gift of love to that someone special), St. Patrick's Day (let's get drunk on green beer), Easter (color eggs, get fat on chocolate), Sweetest Day (reasons already given), and unfortunately Christmas (buy gifts for everyone you know). Each holiday had one meaning at one time, and each holiday now means something completly different. It may not be right, but in some cases, it has made it fun, and expensive, for most.

Halloween is evil if you want it to be. I kind of have the same feelings dealing with Christmas. Dec. 25th is supposed to be a celebration of the birth of Christ if you are a Roman Catholic, but for those who have chosen a different religion, it means Santa Claus, Jingle Bells etc. etc., which is not wrong, it is just how one wants to celebrate holidays different.

...maybe those years of Catholic School paid off! laugh.gifwink.gifofftopic.gif

From the rumors I have heard, 2006 may in deed bring a new Nick expansion, but it will also include a flat ride for the thrill seekers elsewhere in the park. Although anything aboout 2006 is purely speculation and rumor at this point.

Yup Yup YEsSssSs... Thrill Seekers will have something and the family crowd will get something as always I see nick getting bigger and a nice flat going into Coney Mall.

I see Nick Central getting bigger aswell but I think the thrill seekers will be thrilled ... I think we will see The Addams Family sooner than later.

Those would be two excellent spots for new rides.

I think a new area to the park would be great to ease the congestion on busy days. Anytime you can stretch the crowds is a good thing. Just leave The Beast area alone!

Yeah, Beast needs to have its woods to itself. BUT The Beast is nowhere near all that land near Flight of Fear ... wink.gif

Flight of Fear has tons of land behind it I wonder if PKI could put a ride back there somewhere?

I think if they put a flat where Eurobungee was, that would bring more people back to Vortex and AT.
