KI Haunt Review 9/26/15
The parks in Florida also charge alot of money just to get in for a daily ticket. 80.00 for an event on top of what they charge just to get in is a bit much don't you think?

KI Haunt Review 9/26/15
The extra charge will not work as the park has close to 50,000 or more people in it before Haunt even starts on Saturday. People are already saying that Cedar Fair is charging extra for everything now, and your saying that they should charge more just to get in for an event? If you think that you can make Haunt better, then apply for a job with one of the parks.

Cell phones on rides
How many of you have heard the ride ops say to put cell phones away while the coasters are going up the lift hill or while a ride is operating at KI? I heard that alot on Saturday.

Haunt 2015
Park staff has to be careful what they say on here when it comes to happenings and such at the park. It's a rule.

Kings Island is looking for souls i mean people for the 2015 Haunt season. You can apply at www.visitkingsisland.com and click on jobs, or apply at the park in the HR building to the right of the main gate. Interviews run from 4 pm to 6 pm on Fridays, and 11 am to 5 pm Saturdays and Sundays. The jobs are dead end, and grave sites fill up fast.

Haunt 2015
Too many mazes and too few bodies to stuff into (no pun intended). The biggest issue that all haunted attractions in general have is staffing; Haunt season falls right into the beginning of both high school football and Homecoming dances, and almost three-quarters of the talent that Kings Island specifically hires are minors/high school kids (most standalone haunts try to circumvent this by strictly hiring 18+). Retention rates are also low as the season goes on once workers realize the physical, mental, and emotional strains that come with the not-so-simple task of scaring paying customers. You deal with alot more then just the physical, mental and emotional strain.

Witnessed something eerie
The staff member or guest should of said you/i go ahead and wait for the next train. When you have a empty seat, the staff are trained to make sure that they try and fill it to keep the line moving. FOF always has a slow line. Same with Firehawk. On slow days, both rides have a 20 to 35 min wait.

Platinum Pass/Cedar Point Dilemma
For some reason, some pass holders have issues getting into Cedar Point when they buy a Platinum Pass at other parks. If you renew online, you don't have that problem. That has been going on since the Platinum Pass has came out.

Where is the cheapest place to buy 2-day tickets for Kings Island?
You can get KI parking tickets at Kroger too. Don't forget to use your plus card when you checkout. You get gas points.

Geauga Lake Protesting
It's a 150 million dollar eyesore too. I don't see CF getting all of that money back.

Coaster Clubs?
That depends on which events at which parks you plan to go to.
