New Kings Island Dark Ride

Featured Replies

If Kings Island were to get a new dark ride what would you want it to be?

I would be thinking a space or a haunted house.

but those might be to close to Flight of Fear and boo blaster....

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

    Killer topic bump.    Kings Island is severely lacking in the dark ride department. It’s a glaring issue given the history of their past dark ride attractions leading up to Scooby Doo and the H

    Or how about sticking with R&R Creative Amusement Designs…they designed the original and are still in business.

    There was a time when Kings Island had four indoor ride through attractions operating at once. Flight of Fear, Tomb Raider or The Crypt, Action Theater, and the kids dark ride all brought something di

Ooh I know a ride themed to a journey into a mysterious crypt with, fire, sound, and water effects! Oh wait never mind...

I would love a Dark Ride like Monster Mansion at Six Flags Over Georgia... Maybe a castle- theme, where you meet the King and the rest of the comedic royal family.

DarKastle in Busch Gardens Europe. Best non-coaster I have ever been on.

How about a ride in boats where you see the different Hanna Barbera characters with a catchy tune ( Live in my tee vee....)? Never mind.

i second the idea, for a similar monster mansion. with NO painted plywood cut-outs & NO making it into a "shoot'em-up" game.

rotag- who cant stand those type of rides & gets easily turned off by them.

The Lost Journey, A trip around the world boat voyage, with a story line!!!

Then a big suprising drop at the end,

But themed music, something that would never be tired, and enjoyed by generations!!

Current owner I doubt ever we'll see something!

I always had an idea for a dark ride themed to Around the World in Eighty Days, with the cars themed to hot air balloons. Think a hybrid between It's A Small World and Peter Pan's Flight (inverted cars traveling around the world), but with no singing children.

Brilliant idea, RingMaster!!!

Maybe this can be an enclosed, modified Zamperla Balloon Ride, using large LED-wall technology to "trasport" riders to different parts of the world as they pass by... very interesting...

I know this would cost alot to get and alot of people prob. wouldn't like jsut because of its name but I think a ride themed to Warcraft would be pretty cool and I don't even play the game anymore but it does have some really cool music and themes that could make a great dark ride.

Lets have a dark ride without lights on and annoying guns in your hands.

How about a dark ride where you're in a theater filled with ghosts?

Oh.

Never mind.

I'll do you one better.

Let's build a water dark ride themed to a gaggle of little blue people in white attire.

Oh, wait...

I wish this could have been salvaged. Easily the best dark ride I've been on.

A multi level ride located in the building the Crypt now houses themed around whatever.

Hear, hear! That song is SOOOO annoying!!!

There is at least one poster here that adores that ride (AND that song).

Especially the California version thereof.

Then again, that poster adores the California Disney Resort and thinks it superior to the Florida version in almost every conceivable way. He's funny like that...

Agreed!! When I rode It's a Small World, we got stopped for a short while. It was probably only a couple minutes, but it seemed like HOURS. If I never hear that song again, it will be too soon.

I want a pure haunted house, not one you walk through though... That's one thing I never really liked about HH, is you can get stuck behind very cautious people, and make things go way longer than they should.

I'm amazed you made it out alive!

...or a water ride homage to the cartoon characters found in my tv...

ooops....a boo boo!

Yabba Dabba Doo!

^Ignore the above.

Through the years. The Kings Island story!. Very cool!!! and first of its kind!

even have parts of hannah, scooby, phantom, old rides, memories, complete darkness, all on a gentle boat ride!, then at the end maybe a future model of Kings Island.

Indoor boat ride detailing the history of the park. :)

I love that idea. As long as after, say 10 years, they don't change it into something else.

If they kept it up as well as the then management did "The Paramount Story," you'd have little to worry about. Funny how new movie stones just quit being added after a while. And the park's history does get added to, documented or not.

Well, it's really annoying when people behind you want to rush through the whole thing and then you end up right behind another group. Better to be slow and cautious and make the hour you spent in line worth it.
