KIghostguy Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I arrived at Kings Island at about 12:40. The Eiffel Tower was operating, and I was able to take the elevator up. The lower platform was the one open, and I had never been on it. International Street was decorated with gravestones of past rides, which I thought was a neat little detail. Banshee was next-I was able to walk right on. Nothing new about it. After, I had some Dippin' Dots. The Racer was also a walk-on, and was actually smoother than my previous rides on it. It was still rough, but it was smoother than before. The Beast had a relativly long line, but it moved fast-I'd say it was 15-20 minutes or so. The hill was slow as usual, but other than that, nothing new. Boo Blasters was my final ride. I was able to shine an iPhone flashlight through the boards in the hallway, and it was really cool seeing the old busts! The line was long as well, 20-25 minutes. The Boocifer gravestone at the beginning was working, as were the skeletons in bed and the Boocifer at the end. Many of the targets were out, and the tourist getting chased by skeletons was also broken down. I actually got the most points out of any of my previous rides on Boo Blasters-1,140-something. I left at about 3:30. It was a fun time with great weather and small crowds for most rides. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaestroJr Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Glad you had a great time and also happy that you got to see those Phantom Theater faces, they are super cool to look at! I always wondered why they kept them in there and also why they dont recreate the effect. Unfortuanatly if a Peanuts dark ride gets put in they will probaly remove them permantly. Glad you had fun., MaestroJr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you had fun., MaestroJr A Peanut Dark Ride makes more sense where Boo Blasters is. How about bring back an updated Phantom Theatre in the Crypt building (change the front of it) and make it a dark ride like Dark Kastle at Bush Gardens Virginia. Moving cars with projectors screens and using special 3D effects! They must still have the old Sponge Bob 3D glasses left from Action Theatre 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaestroJr Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I agree with you 100%, put a Peanuts themed dark ride into the Boo Blasters building and put Phantom Theater in The old Crypt building. But it is still a shame that all the original Phantom Theater stuff will be removed. I always loved finding those old remnants. Ah, memories.
