September 20, 200916 yr My family and I don't know if we should go to CP or KI for Halloween. I like scary things, but too much of that "in your face" kind of terror creeps me out. Which one should we go to?
September 20, 200916 yr If you're ONLY talking about going to CP or KI for the Halloween stuff, then go to KI. I think. And if you want rides and awesome Halloween stuff, go to CP. I think.
September 20, 200916 yr Both places have a lot to offer.Im sure the dont touch them and they wont touch you rule applies at both parks. Unless they are hungry hahahahaha.Kidding.Go where you enjoy the rides but remember Kings Island has Diamondback and beast.
September 20, 200916 yr I think Kigns Island is a much better park in the fall than Cedar Point. However I think they are about even in the summer. KI has the great night rides on The Beast that almost no park can match.
September 20, 200916 yr The temperature down in Cincy is also very nice in the fall, compared to Sandusky's cold falls/winters and the lake's breeze.
September 20, 200916 yr I would say Kings Island. Both parks are good. Cedar Point do keep more family friendly even with the Haunts though (they are not as gory). Wear mostly masks/prosthetics.
September 20, 200916 yr Just came back from Halloweekends. It's absolutely fantastic up there. The two new haunts this year are absolutely incredible. Trip report will be coming tonight. But I also really like KI's haunt. If you're only going to do one or the other, I would just do whichever is closer as they are both fantastic.
September 20, 200916 yr Author Hooray! We decided on going to Kings Island. I haven't been there all year.
September 20, 200916 yr I think you made the right decision. I like KI's atmosphere much more than CP's.
September 20, 200916 yr We are gonna go friday or saturday to KI. I will wear my KICentral shirt stop me and say Hi . I will be with the fam.
September 20, 200916 yr The 2 edges I give to CP over KI are the scare zones where you just walk through an area that's covered in fog and scare actors. Love being able to go through a 'Haunt' without having to wait. And the second thing I love are their Poe ghost stories in the little shack back by Snake River Falls. They have different actors sit and tell very intense versions of Poe stories. They're pretty fun to watch and the performers are usually really good. Wish KI would bring something in like that.
September 20, 200916 yr I think CP keeps the atmosphere more family friendly than KI with light-hearted monster rock in the backround such as The Monster Mash.
September 21, 200916 yr Poe stories has been removed this year from CP. It was always a stop for me to hear tell-tale heart
September 21, 200916 yr ^^and the various shows, the parade, etc. that go on in the daytime. CP has a fantastic balance of haunted attractions for kids and adults.
September 21, 200916 yr Poe stories has been removed this year from CP. It was always a stop for me to hear tell-tale heart Aww, I wonder why. It was always packed when they did them. That sucks. Okay, CP only has 1 edge over KI then.
