No. . . they're announcing it at 11.

I have a whole door full of postcards from my East Coast(er) Trip. Also I have a whole shelf full of about 30 shot glasses! It's sweet.

13/20

I wonder what the view was like from the front seat before it hit the dude. That woulda made for a great POV.

Wild Thing @ Valleyfair

Nice pics! Skydivers are awesome in my opinion. I love em! They are kinda scary though because of their age.

Well if it helps, here's where the entrance will be. . . *Photo Courtesy of MidwestInfoGuide*

Ya know. . . I listed the location of every haunt (excluding Carowinds because I have not been told/informed of where th ose are). Fury of the Nile Island is this year's location for it.

Yeah I just tried it and it worked so I posted it!

Well I just call it hacking cuz I feel cool that I'm looking at something no one else has seen. If you look at the other CF haunt pages, they're all on Haunt.Park.com so all I did was take www.haunt.knotts.com and reworded it with kingsdominion.

Updated with King's Dominion haunt info & new scare zone & haunts. http://haunt.kingsdominion.com/

http://haunt.kingsdominion.com/ I just hacked into it

Yeah I really hate how everyone bashes Screamscape for how bad it is with posting absurd rumors & such, but he's doing what we do on here, just on a more publicized base. People complain about how many stupid rumors there are for each park, but why doesn't everyone take a gander over at the rumors thread on this site. I mean seriously, 67 pages. . . If anything we should all give props to Lance for everything he does. Anyone who runs/operates a site knows what I'm talking about. It takes an extreme amount of time & dedication to run a website, and with the way Lance is doing it (updating every couple days with 10-20 stories with descriptions) must take him hours of his day. I know I am very thankful for sites like this one, screamscape, and any other site that puts in a good amount of dedication & time into making it a good site. That's just my 2 cents.

Yeah I have a feeling that this is how it's going to be for a while (CF parks getting the same haunts for new haunts) Like for example, I have a feeling that next year, Valleyscare, Carowinds, Kings Dominion, Dorney, and maybe a couple other parks will get the same theme haunt. Believe it or not, 5 parks got Cornstalkers as a new haunted maze/scare zone in 2008, and 4 parks got Club Blood's as a new haunted house for 2008. Sorry that I'm relating back to my home park so much, but there's a rumor that Chateau Du Damne is going to be out next year, and a Club Blood would be the replacement. Of course it's far to early to even speculate, but still, with how many Club Blood's there are in the chain, I wouldn't be surprised. I'm glad that at Valleyscare, we don't have a Cornstalkers, we have Hellside Farm. I like that name better even though the zone itself was terrible last year, it's transforming into an Outdoor Maze this year. Now as for the rest of the chain, I think that Cedar Point is going to go Halloween Haunt next year which would permanently remove Halloweekends. I think that the tremendous result of different parks getting Halloween Haunt will convince Cedar Fair to transform Cedar Point. I mean, Halloweekends is already an enormous event at the park, and kicking it up a notch can't make that go down.

Updated with Cedar Point's Halloweekends. CP is really going all out! It's lookin awesome. Also, for all Valleyscare fans, their website is most likely releasing either later tonight or tomorrow. www.valleyscare.com

I still don't get the whole rating scale thingy. I don't really care though, this year's lineup sounds amazing.

I know Cedar Point is tomorrow at Worlds of Fun is September 1st.

Cool stuff JZ. . . You got any idea on when they're announcing Urgent-Scare?

The Flume at Valleyfair is awesome. Too bad it's being removed for 09 expansion.

Michigan's Adventure is kind of a weird park in my opinion. In a way it reminded me of a larger Wild West World on the coaster/flat side. The waterpark was great, and overall it was a fun day! I started out on Shivering Timbers, and thought that was alright. It was a tad bumpy and rough but it was still enjoyable. After that, we headed to Wolverine Wildcat (I think that's the name. . . ) and that was fun! Not bumpy or rough at all! I loved the double up too. After that, I can't really remember what the order was, but I know I got every single coaster in! (Yes even Big Dipper - The kiddie coaster) Thunderhawk was great! I loved every second of it. Very smooth, comfortable, and it looked amazing as well. Corkscrew was very short and sorta pointless. Didn't like that very much. Big Dipper, the kiddie coaster, was jerky, but had a very nice pop of air right before the end. Zach's Zoomers was an amazing coaster. I know this is gonna sound really stupid and lame, but it's seriously an awesome Jr. Woodie! I loved it! Smooth, fast, exciting, and airtime too! I loved it more then shivering timbers even! Mad Mouse was fun, same as Valleyfair's except slower. I think that's all the coasters. . . Anyways yeah here's the funny/lucky part of the TR. Leaving the park, we walked by a fence where I saw Big Dipper (the kiddie coaster). Knowing that I wanted to get every coaster in the park my dad said "Did you get that one?" I glanced over and hit myself in the head for missing it! I went back into guest relations to get another ticket quickly, where I realized that I had lost my season pass! See kids, credit whoring isn't that bad of a thing . I got a $10 replacement, and yeah I'd like to thank Troy from Michigan's Adventure's Guest Relations dept. for putting up with everything! I ended up getting Big Dipper though, so that's all that is important.

This park is actually sorta big despite it's small presence. It actually kind of reminded me of Valleyfair in a way. There's Wolverine Wildcat. I really loved it! It was smooth for the most part, fast, and it had a double up! Shivering Timbers. I can't honestly say that I liked this coaster that much. It had a great layout, and I would LOVE to see it as an Intamin Prefab, but I dunno it was just a tad too aggressive and unenjoyable. Very photogenic ride though. Nice signage. Corkscrew. This coaster was not worth the 30 minutes I waited for it. It was short, boring, and really stupid actually. I hated it. The park had a tornado though so I spose that makes up for the lack of coasters. Thunderhawk! Copy cats. Again. . . ! Onto this little warlock. I really loved Thunderhawk. It was really smooth for an SLC. It was fast, exciting, and fun! I got front row too which was cool. Woosh! Headchopper really. I loved the G's on this part of the ride. Up the lift. I really hope they do connect this path later in the year. It's a pain if you're at Shivering Timbers and you wanna ride Grand Rapids, you have to walk from one part of the U to the other. So photogenic! Corkscrewyou. I hate this ride! That's it for the photos for Michigan's Adventure. I went to the waterpark with my dad during the day and it was great. I loved it! Their speed slides are sorta painful though. Other than that I loved the park! Also Big Dipper (Kiddie coaster). . . RULES! ________________________________ Cedar Point! Wow. What a great park. We got there around 1 PM Tuesday, and I had my dad drop me off at the gates. As soon as I got in, I had the biggest smile on my face. Cedar Point - Greatest place on earth. I first headed to Raptor to find an hour and a half line, so I waited! I ended up getting middle right seat and loved it! The whole layout is smooth, flowing, and amazingly fun! After that, in my quest to get all coasters excluding the ones I can't ride, I headed to Iron Dragon and Wildcat. Loved both, but Iron Dragon is pretty boring. Wildcat looked pretty jerky, but was one of the smoothest and most enjoyable coasters like that I've ever been on! After Wildcat, I headed to the Holy Grail. Millennium Force. Waited about 2 hours for that, and then got front seat. I was actually intimidated by the first drop. That rarely happens with me so that was kinda weird! I loved every second of MF. The airtime, the curves, the hills, everything. Pure awesomeness. After MF I can't remember what I did in order but it was a blur of everything, and I ended up getting every coaster excluding Jr. Gemni and Woodstock's Express. I loved Cedar Point, but I think I still like Valleyfair better.

It's really in the middle of nowhere haha. Once we pulled into Sandusky, we stopped at a haunted house named Ghostly Manor. If you go to CP, I HIGHLY recommend going to this! It was worth the 11 bucks! Woohoo! I'm going! YAY! Cedar Point! Raptor! This is one of the very fun parts of Raptor. I think it's my favorite B&M Invert! Liftage. I love waiting in lines at CP. Fun stuff. Blue Streak! You're next. Signage. Looks fake almost! Blue Streak was fun, but I like High Roller better! Wildcat was awesome! It looks like it's gonna be your generic fair rough coaster, but it's amazingly smooth & fun! Iron Dragon (Or as my dad called it, Iron Maiden) Woosh! I loved Mantis. Until the MCBR. . . Clank clank clank. The line was interesting, but the ride was cool. Power Tower was really fun! Dragster! It really flies down those drops. Mantis had an hour line so I opted out for the first day. Loop De Loop. And finally, the holy grail of coasters. . . Millennium Force. Some lady fell asleep reading on the sign. Stupid CP hobos. Doesn't look to bad. . . I think this one looks funny. Force(ful) It's kinda a required shot. So is this one. Station. So I waited 2 hours for a line like this? Why don't they let more people in! Oh wait. . . *Looks at Dragster* Up the lift! This is truly an amazing coaster. Yay Maverick! Magnum. I don't like you. WT through the trees. Launch! Corkscrew. Yay! I love this picture. I love the station. Signage. Demon Drop. One of my favorite flat rides of all time. Ferris Wheel! Weeeeeee. Wicked Twister was really cool! Yep. Twisty. Draggie. Dragster at Sunset! That's where I spent my evening. Goodnight CP! See you in the morning! First off, Maverick! Horseshoe Rolls. Trainage. Wee! Maverick was fun. Nothing amazing or over the top, but just really fun! First in line for Mantis! Weeee! Cedar Creek Mine Ride was. . . Interesting. No worries. I did ride Skyscraper. Still running smoothly. I miss you. I LOVE DISASTER TRANSPORT! Next up, All Wheels Xtreme! Great Show! Almost got it, but opted for Hydra & Apollo Statix Trains instead. Eeek. Bye Breakers Express! Next up, KI!

Oh I see where you're coming from (and I agree too!) Sorry bout that!

Cp fanboy says: Yeah because tin tunnels are flippin amazing. I'd either have to say Hades, Loch Ness, Stunt Track (KD & KI) and Anaconda because of the whole underwater aspect. Does Flight of Fear count? *And that wasn't intended towards B&M I'm just sick of hearing about CP this CP that Zomg CP so yeah*

I'm gonna take a gander and guess that because they're on Central time they're gonna announce it at 11 for Central people.

Kings Dominion has fansites that have posted theirs. . . CGA hasn't posted theirs but someone from their park sent me the lineup after they applied for the haunt, and Canada's Wonderland has announced theirs. I can't wait to see CGA's website as well as Valleyscare's new website as well.
