BoddaH1994 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 More details released about the 5 new attractions. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/blog/2019/september/5-new-attractions-added-to-kings-island’s-halloween-haunt I'm guessing Drums of the Dead will take the cake as the best new attraction this year. They've told people it'll be bigger and better than Blood Drums. Blood Drums had an excellent year last year. If they can top it this year then go for it! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love how that list includes "Feed My Frankenstein" by Alice Cooper, "The Addams Groove" by MC Hammer, and "Pet Sematary" by The Ramones, a bit of a throwback to the Paramount days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only did it one year, I thought it was a great use of space and it kept the fog centralized. CornStalkers never used the drained Congo Falls area. The years it was in Action Zone it used the Timberwolf walkway next to Congo Falls. It moved there in 2008 & was there for at least the 2009 season too according to this History of the Haunt post. I've circled that area in red in the picture below. I'm not sure exactly where the entrance and exit were as I was busy working Club Blood & Slaughterhouse's original location those years. Cedar Point's CornStalkers uses their drained Thunder Canyon ride area. On 9/5/2019 at 11:50 AM, PatchesC said: My 10yo got her feet wet going to Haunt last year. Mainly hanging is scare zones, Madame Fatales, and Wolf Pack. Then of course rides at night. She didn't want to do KillMart or Slaughter House because she didn't want to see "gore". Blackout she just didn't want to lose me lol. We plan to go again this year for her birthday and she is asking if any of the houses have air bags. Soooo any chance? Yes it's a fascination of hers. Slaughterhouse has had the compression tunnel (air bags) for the past 11 years. On 9/6/2019 at 8:37 PM, harmony29 said: I'm excited to have a scare zone on international street!

I remember hearing/reading comments from guests about that area being too bright with the lights from Drop Tower and them reflecting off the fog, but whether that's the reason I don't know.

SonofBaconator Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Some things I think would be cool to add. Change in the projections in the shed Bring back the train but this time have people ride the entire length of the ride and go past creepy scenes I heard they stopped train operations for 2 reasons: 1 because the addition of MT shortened the length of the attraction to make it not worth it. 2 because the trains have a certain amount of run-time on their boilers so the park opted Haunt in favor of Winterfest) Change up Boo Blasters with extra props, and more creepy music I heard scareactors are no longer allowed in the ride building for safety reasons. @XGatorHead 8904 would know Add different audio in the Adventure Express tunnels 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
