Sergeant Pepper Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 What do you think of The Beast books by R.L. Stine? The Beast The Beast 2 Quote
Sergeant Pepper Posted September 13, 2009 Author Posted September 13, 2009 R.L. Stine had written books about The Beast look it up ( not meant to sound pushy ) Quote
CincyMan98 Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 Dude I need to read that! How old are the books? Quote
Sergeant Pepper Posted September 13, 2009 Author Posted September 13, 2009 I think they were made in the 90's Edit: Ninja beat me to it Quote
Dvo Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 1st book was pretty creative. decent story line and a decent twist. 2nd book... not so much. Quote
Beast Man Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Never read them so my vote is null. Quote
violakat03 Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 I read them both when I was in late elementary or junior high. They were two of few books I ever read by RL Stine, I just never really got into his plotlines. I enjoyed the first book, and I still remember a lot of it. I don't remember a thing about the second book, it was just ... blah. The first book was good though. They used to have a copy of it sitting in the window of the drive box many years ago. I wonder what happened to it. Quote
Tomkatt7 Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Are these fictional novels, or fact books? Quote
Sergeant Pepper Posted September 14, 2009 Author Posted September 14, 2009 Are these fictional novels, or fact books? They are fictional, and everyone else, i agree that the second book wasn't as good. They are almost the same thing. Quote

KIMonster14 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 i loved the first one, whats the secind one about? Quote
IndyGuy4KI Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 I've never heard of them?? HUMM.. me neither? Quote
CoastersRZ Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 It has been years since I read those books. I have both of them in my room. For several years after the first one came out, they had a copy of it sitting in the control booth at The Beast facing the station floor. "The Beast" by R.L. Stine came out in 1994. "The Beast 2" came out in 1995. (I have copies of both books on a shelf in my room.) Quote
Beast79 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 I loved the first one! R.L did a very good job describing Beast at night Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 You can order a copy of the original "The Beast" book from Amazon.com by clicking here. Quote
XGatorHead 8904 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 I read the original Beast book one day while I was working The Beast souvenir stand near the ride's exit in '94. What can I say, it was a slow day there that day... I enjoyed it for what it was, but I hated having people tell me all about the park that was there before Kings Island, and then having to correct them. I never did read the 2nd book. Quote
CoastersRZ Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Good old Firelight Park! I believe that was the name of it. Its been years and years since I read it. Quote
Beast79 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 After reading the book I looked for the plague at the front gates and I had to ask my dad if there really was a park there before ki. Quote
frisbeefan Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 I really enjoyed the first book, also the cover art was neat as I recall. Quote
Jasper Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Yes the cover art was very nice. I love these books. I have only read the second one once and I don't recall it being better than the first. The first was amazing though. Firelight Torch Park and P.D. Walters. Classic scene and a classic ghost to go along with it. I also love the part about James talking about the change underneath The Vortex. Quote
Beast Man Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 There was a park before KI, but it was on Kellogg Avenue . Quote
XGatorHead 8904 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 ^And that park is still there on Kellogg, I went there twice this year. At least I think I did... or was I magically transported back in time? Quote
Beast Man Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 ^And that park is still there on Kellogg, I went there twice this year. At least I think I did... or was I magically transported back in time? Did you ride in a DeLorean? It's still there, but I was referring to the original Coney before the BIG MOVE. Quote
