StXsteven Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 Taken from http://www2.paramountparks.com/kingsisland...m?ec_id=15#fear "FEARFEST Select Friday and Saturday Nights in October Begins October 7th! Back for it's 7th frightful year! Free with park admission! When the sun goes down, the terror begins as Paramount's Kings Island transforms into the Midwest's Largest Haunted Playground. Brave souls can experience a host of haunted attractions including a Haunted Wooded Trail and sinsiter mazes. Guests looking for a different type of thrill can enjoy any of their favorite rides and attractions until park close. Open October 7 - 28, and running Friday and Saturday nights beginning at 8 p.m.., FearFest features 11 horrifying attractions recommended for ghouls 12 and older. The park opens at 7 p.m. on Fridays. This hauntingly exciting event is free and included with park admission, as well as free to season pass holders. The park closes at midnight on Fridays and Saturdays during FearFest." It says 11 horrifying attractions, I saw 9 at www.pki.com/fearfest from last year, so what do you think the 2 new ones will be? Or do you guess its a typo? Quote
StXsteven Posted August 1, 2006 Author Posted August 1, 2006 They had Circus of Horrors 3D Elvira's Superstition Funhouse(sorry can't remeber full name) Headless Hollow Maze of Madness Massacre Manor Psycho Path Friday the 13th show R.L. Stine's Fear Street Nights or w/e it was called Quote
KIemployeeforlife Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 They had Circus of Horrors 3D Elvira's Superstition Funhouse(sorry can't remeber full name) Headless Hollow Maze of Madness Massacre Manor Psycho Path Friday the 13th show R.L. Stine's Fear Street Nights or w/e it was called you are forgetting the two scare zones Quote
hauntguy Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 Headless Hollow Massacre Manor Cornstalkers Circus of Horrors RL Stines: FearStreet Nights Maze of Madness PsychoPath Jason's Most Xtreme Cuts Elvira's Superstition Funhouse Express and the "gauntlet" scarezone between Octoberfest and ActionZone.... There's 11... I don't know if KI will get any new attractions for this season. All I know is that KI will try to transform the entire park and not just certian areas. -Hauntguy Quote
beastfan11 Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 But would you really consider cornstalkers and the gauntlet thing an "attraction"? I thought the actractions were the actual haunted houses.. but I really dont know - collin Quote
SOB_TOM Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 Read the fine print around the park. Some restaraunts they call "attractions." Quote
hauntguy Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 ^ Very true... on the Fearfest site last year it did have Cornstalkers listed as an attraction! So I don't expect any 'new' attractions... just the attractions placed better throughout the park and using the entire park for the event! -Hauntguy Quote
CoastersRZ Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Well, I don`t know if they will use the entire park. But hopefully they have more of a scarezone in Coney Mall or Rivertown. The one by Paradise Island treats was really well done! The one that they added after the first weekend over by Slingshot was not as effective, simply because the lighting levels are much brighter in that area of the park. Quote
Quickwind Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 I hope they don't have funhouse or superstition this year... I'll probably be there way too much. Quote
Skywriter Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 If click on this link it takes you to last years fearfest website.The link to last yeasr fearfest Quote
beastfan11 Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 well on last years fearfest webpage when you click the attractions cornstalkers or the gauntlet did not show up... so we MIGHT just have 3 new haunted houses - collin Quote
pkister Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Ya I looked and cornstalkers was not on there. Quote
hauntguy Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Well, I hope there are 3 new attractions... but something tells me there won't be! But I could be totally wrong! -Hauntguy Quote
Snake Attack! Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Well if the guantlet (sorry for spelling) is an attraction then there is another one by slingshot and Coney mall the skater guys you could almost call that an attraction too Quote
Shman Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Let me just say this.....i know of all the plans for this year's FearFest (trust me...im very knowledgeable about this stuff). And my hint to you all is that some of the "Ideas" in the other topic are pretty close to some of the new stuff this year.....dont just focus on the actual houses....there are more attractions then that. Plus look for at least 3 new locations for haunted attractions this year Quote
Delirium13 Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Last Year's Park Map said nine attractions for Fearfest, and that included Corn Stalkers. They had Circus of Horrors 3D Elvira's Superstition Funhouse(sorry can't remeber full name) The Jimmy's Funhouse Thing in the Action FX Theater was considered an attraction for the Fun by Day part of Fearfest, even though it did run throughout the night, so it wouldn't be counted as one of the nine from the Fright by Night part of FearFest from last year.

Whether or not his knowledge is legit or not, I don't know but we do know that the enviornment is far more important to guests than the houses themselves. With that, I would expect more outside decorations and perhaps some improvements to the Scare Zones. Quote
Shman Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 Trust me Ryan.....you know that everything I've ever said on here....especially dealing with things like this Quote
pkifootballer Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 I think a good idea for a new fearfest attraction is a haunted mill type trail. They could have multiple indoor and outdoor columns. They could shut down the best for the weekend and use it's mill scenery for the attraction. What do you guys think? Quote
beastfan11 Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 ok will all do respect ARE YOU GOING MAD they cant shut down The Beast for fear fest.. lol Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 4, 2006 Posted August 4, 2006 Hmmm. What about they shut down Son of Beast for Fear Fest? Quote
Shman Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 just keep an eye out for a lot of cool different stuff Quote
hauntguy Posted August 5, 2006 Posted August 5, 2006 I just got back from auditions (already know role and placement) and I CANNOT WAIT for Fearfest! It's going to be awesome! -Hauntguy Quote
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 Hmmm. What about they shut down Son of Beast for Fear Fest? LOL. I think they already have. And they can use SOB's cool mill scenery for the attrac....oh wait...no....they can use SOB's cool generic metal station scenery for an eerie generic atmosphere. Quote
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 I just got back from auditions (already know role and placement) and I CANNOT WAIT for Fearfest! It's going to be awesome! -Hauntguy So did you get any new details about the event as a whole or just your part in it all? Quote
Dane Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 I just got back from auditions (already know role and placement) and I CANNOT WAIT for Fearfest! It's going to be awesome! -Hauntguy So did you get any new details about the event as a whole or just your part in it all? If you get hired in one of these auditions, you do get told about both FearFest and your part in its operation. Some of these positions are for new haunted attractions not announced yet. Enough hint for you? Also, please do not ask Hantguy about this information, he is not able to talk about it. Quote
hauntguy Posted August 6, 2006 Posted August 6, 2006 ^ And I'm not going too... I want to keep this a surprise! You guys will LOVE Fearfest this year! -Hauntguy Quote
