Kings Island 2016 Discussion Thread
No such confirmation was made by the park on Instagram. A photo was posted about track work on the ride. There is a temporary plastic covering in the area where the carpenters are working on the ride this winter. Thanks for clearing that up! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Kings Island has just confirmed on Instagram that they are building a tunnel on Woodstock Express, and a new White Water Canyon entrance, explaining the construction in Rivertown.

2015 KIC Off Season Poll Series Week XI: Best Ride on a Kings Island Attraction
Hmm, good question! I honestly don't have one single favorite ride I took on a Kings Island attraction. Maybe it was the first time I ever rode Banshee, or perhaps it was the time I got my friend to finally ride The Beast after years of refusal. Or, maybe it was the first time I went on Scooby-Doo and the Haunted Castle, the first attraction I ever rode at Kings Island.

Very interesting! I had no idea that Arrow built some of the rides at Disneyland.

I've been to the cemetery during the off-season, I park in Great Wolf Lodge's parking lot and I just walk over to it.

You Know It's the Off Season When...
When your friend lets you use his Google Cardboard and the first things you do are walk around Kings Island and take a virtual ride of Valravn (complete with me making twisting and turning motions like I'm on it). Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Ghosts at Great Wolf Lodge?
As you may (or may not) know, I'm always in the mood for a good ghost story. And lo and behold, the Great Wolf Lodge here in Mason apparently has some, at least according to https://cincinnatighosts.wordpress.com/page/2/?s=the+inn .

I'll definitly be able to go to Kings Island tons of times next year, I live five minutes away and my Gold Pass is renewed. I also hope to make it to Cedar Point, Knoebels, and Disneyland next year as well.

2015 KIC Off Season Poll Series Week VI: Favorite Dark Ride In Kings Island History
I think it's pretty obvious based on my profile picture, but even though I never rode it, it would definitly be Phantom Theater.

Watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, and then after dinner watching either Miracle on 34th Street or Home Alone.

Boo Blasters on Boo Hill or Scooby Doo's Haunted Castle
When I moved to Mason in 2007, I was all excited that there was a Scooby-Doo ride at Kings Island, because I was obsessed with Scooby-Doo back then. It was the first ride I rode at KI, and it was my favorite when I was a little kid. I remember that when I heard they were removing it I started crying. I liked Boo Blasters before I found out about the previous occupants of the building, but out of the two I'll always like Scooby-Doo and the Haunted Castle the best because of all the memories.

Coco Key Water Resort closed over fire code violations
I went to Coco Key last year in March, just for the day. The water slides were fun, but it was a rather dirty place.

Dark Ride at Kings Island
The couple in bed and the Boocifer gravestone in the beginning rarely work as well.

2015 KIC Off Season Poll Series Week II: Park Area Change
Put German food back in the Festhaus, for just a small change. It would definitly bring the theming back.

Dark Ride at Kings Island
If a dark ride does come (fingers are crossed) I would not want it to be a bunch of screens. To me, that just isn't a dark ride. It's like a movie that you are inside of. To me, a dark ride has to be with physical props. A Wild Mouse coaster in the Crypt building actually sounds like a good idea! Maybe, with the Rivertown theme, it could be themed to a haunted mine, perhaps? Or it could be a return of Phantom Theater with the characters interacting with the track (Example: Maestro could curse your car before going down a hill or backwards).

2015 KIC Off Season Poll Series Week I: Last Ride of 2015
It ended up being Boo Blasters three weeks ago, because I didn't know that that was the last time I would be at the park this season.

Great Autumn day at the Park 10/24/15
Loved those photos of the Phantom Theater remnants! I'm too chicken to go to Haunt at night, so I loved seeing the photos of the props in the mazes. I was really excited when I saw the Phantom Theater crates used in The Beast queue when I went during the day and the busts in Boo Blasters. Sounds like a fun time!

Beast Behind The Scenes Video
Awesome video! When do they have these? Does Kings Island say when the next one is on their website or what?

The Great Pumpkin Coaster: Pumpkin Patch (thoughts)
That's an interesting idea, actually. It would ddefinitly add something to look at, and the ride isn't the Great Grass Coaster. Maybe it could be just temporary to be put up in October?
