JubJester Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 @Joshua That's possible. They could fit a ride there in the future. I always thought they could have Madame Fatale's Cavern of Terror as a year around haunt until they could find something to put there. It wouldn't be to noticable for younger kids. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivertown Rider Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I could see them turning the Killmart location into a restaurant. I think it would be great to see it turned into a gourmet Mac and cheese location. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good idea; however, I feel like Blackout woukd be the most likely candidate for a year-round Haunt maze as it has operated outside of Haunt for that Gold Pass night ERT event (which also included Banshee and The Bat). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imperial79 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Okay so KI can leave Killmart alone, make it a restaurant, what about getting rid of the building, and add a Ferris Wheel or another flat ride in that spot? I think adding another ride right next to our new Antique Car's would look great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE_BEASTmaster Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 IMO, I don’t think Coney Mall needs any more flat rides. Why the fascination with adding more flat rides there? How about the park add them in the other sections like Rivertown. All that place has is roller coasters and 2 non stationary rides. The spot where the dolphin and seal show would be is a great site for a flat ride and where the Crypt building is.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Adding some kind of ride in the old Crypt building would be nice. Maybe a ride like Haunted Mansion but theme it to a haunted lumber mill! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 While it technically makes more sense to re-work/adjust the theming at Boo Blasters to Phantom Theater 2.0 or another haunted dark ride, my dream is for it to go in The Crypt building if it were ever to happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Adventure Express belongs in Rivertown. Not so sure about flat rides. Although it is not perfect, I like how the park is broken down into different genre's. Flat rides = Coney. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be fine if that was the only area, but there are flats in AZ as well.I would like them to add flats near FoF/Firehawk and in Rivertown. Help even out the crowd a bit more. Every area should have 1-2 flat rides. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperial79 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 If not adding a Ferris Wheel to Coney Mall, maybe KI could add it to International Street? I don't believe a new ride has been added and taken out since the park opened in that area, and it could be put on the empty plot of land across from the Grand Carousel, on one side you have the Carousel on the other the Ferris Wheel, it would look nice at night! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purdude86 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 If we got a ferris wheel I feel it needs to be a large one like Cedar Point's. A regular ferris wheel like the park used to have would be too low of a capacity for the park I feel. I do think the open grassy areas around the base of the Eiffel Tower could make great spots for a few flats. Especially some classics to go along with the carousel, like a trabant and tilt-a-whirl.

Need some more flats in other areas, especially Rivertown and X-Base (as part of an overall expansion). Ideally would like to see either a dark ride/themed log flume go where Crypt, but was if not a Screamin' Swing (or if not a regular top spin themed to logging), then add a Mack Twist 'n' Splash could fit really well for the area and keep water based rides together still. Then see a Sky Fly and/or a Screamin' Swing if not added to Rivertown. Then would bring back Der Spinning Keggers to Oktoberfest. These additions would give us a great line up then overall with both thrilling and famiy flat rides. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperial79 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I don't think people would mind a low capacity ride like the regular Ferris Wheel the park used have, if it was added there. International Street is about relaxing, and taking in the environment and sights, with the Grand Carousel on the left, and the Ferris Wheel on the right, and the Eiffel Tower in the middle for rides, I think it would add some charm. Its not like Action Zone where everything is fast paced. Would a large Ferris Wheel like what Cedar Point if added, steal some attention away from the Eiffel Tower? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a teacup ride themed to barrels, like the Der Spinnin Keggers, but more of a western/frontier style to it. There are barrels located throughout Rivertown.

TombRaiderFTW Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 ^ We really don't have one, though. Our Top Spin left in 2012. Although, I could definitely understand the park being against adding another one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdude86 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Yea figure might have some reservations after TR:TR but as that was a giant top spin and the regular ones seem to be fine they could go for one like it. Kings Dominion's is still operating fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fyrfyter Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Just need something new that isn’t around other places. Besides the ABC gyroscope-like thing, it seems like flat ride design has become stagnant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDMC01 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I think that may go better in Coney than Rivertown. Or even put a slower, tamer version in Planet Snoopy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upstop Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 There is an onride version. It actually moves pretty fast. But I agree that is flashy and would appear to be more like a Coney type ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super7 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Huss Magic is an amazing flat ride. They have one at Marine land in Niagara. A better option than a Ferris wheel would be to convert the Windseeket to a Skyseeker. It would have better views than a Ferris wheel and have much better capacity and loading time. http://mondialrides.com/towerrides/all/sky-seeker 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_BEASTmaster Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 ^^But other sections of the park could use some flat rides as well other than Coney Mall, (cough)Rivertown(cough).
