2008 Halloween Haunt Information Released, Join the Haunt Scare Team, September Bonus Days, 2009 Season Passes & More!

In just a matter of weeks darkness will fall over Kings Island and the creatures of the night will make their return for the biggest Halloween Haunt ever! Now loaded with 13 terrifying haunted attractions, no other haunted attraction in the Midwest can match the amount of blood, guts and gore brought to you by Kings Island!

The new attraction that will have everyone screaming is the new 3,666sq ft haunted maze called Urgent Scare. Guests will be transformed into 'patients' at this hospital-gone-mad as they traverse through rooms full of doctors and nurses who have been infected with a virus that is spreading through your small town causing a deadly plague. Urgent Scare will be located in the right side of the FX Theater. The theater was converted through Kings Island's mastery of innovation from a 3D motion theater to a walk through haunted maze.

In addition to the return of the wildly popular Dead Awakening, Kings Island will be adding a new show in the Festhaus called Ghouls Gone Wild! This monster dinner party has YOU on the menu! You can stay as long as you'd like... in fact, you can stay FOREVER!

Returning attractions include CarnEvil, Cemetery, Club Blood, Cornstalkers, Death Row, Massacre Manor, Red Beard’s Revenge, Trail of Terror, Tombstone Terror-Tory and Worksite. Beware of Roamers and Creepers…they’re everywhere!

Gates to the underworld for Halloween Haunt will be open from 7:00pm to 1:00am every Friday and Saturday night September 26 through November 1. Click here to read the full press release about Halloween Haunt at Kings Island!

As Halloween Haunt approaches, Kings Island's head hunters are looking for Zombies, Werewolves, Vampires, Undead Cowboys, Mummies, Demented Clowns, Pirates, Malpracticing Doctors, Ghouls Gone Wild and Sideshow Performers as well as many other positions at Kings Island.
