Well, we'll soon know what all that Grizzly lift hill nonsense was about... No hints in the comments.

Mediocre at best. Bloodbath was entertaining enough, kind of a rehash of the old Club Blood theme with a little hotel mixed in at the end (which didn't quite make sense - wouldn't you start in the hotel?). In Eerie Estate, I didn't notice anything new aside from the introduction room with the Ouija board. Hexed was probably still the best one from an artistry standpoint. Slaugherhouse and Cornstalkers were their normal tired selves. Blood on the Bayou took longer to walk to it than it did to go through it. Cut Throat Cove was pretty decent. All were severely lacking in actors. Kings Dominion had the best CF Haunt this year out of the four I went to, followed quite distantly by Kings Island, CP, and then Dorney. That includes shows in the calculations, too. I swear I'll get my TRs up from KI and CP's Haunts one of these days soon.

If Zamperla has anything to do with whatever is happening to Dragster, I will be very sad.

Edit: I'm an idiot who can't read. Wednesdays should be the slowest, then gravitating out from there towards the weekends.

So, I just wrapped up my trip to Cedar Point (full report coming in the future), but there was one thing I had to share: (God damnnit I thought the picture came out better). Anyway, that is all Dragster related merchandise at 50% off. Definitely looking at least at a new name.

In the smokers' defense, KD did not create a smoking zone inside the park during the "No-Reentry during Haunt" period, as every other CF park did, so it's kinda on the park - they didn't leave any option for smokers. When I was there at the end of September, several security officers told me they thought it was dumb too, and just told me to not smoke right in front of them.

Nice little mini-TR! I hope to get back down to the Orlando parks sometime in 2023, after SWO opens Pipeline. I missed out on Montu due to mechanical issues and IG wasn't even close to opening then. Scorpion is a classic and I'm glad you enjoyed. These Schwarzkopfs are a dying breed and really need to be appreciated as much as we can while we still can. I think the issue with Cheetah Chase being so hyped is that Florida locals that don't travel don't know any better, so to them it's an "insane OMG balls to the wall ride !!1!1!" I enjoyed it, but was similarly disappointed. I kinda thought of it like a Maverick-lite. Shame you had a bad experience on Kumba. When I visited in February 2021, they were only running one train too, but the park was completely dead an everything was a walk on. The ride really blew me away (especially in the back-left B&M "magic seat) and quickly shot into my top 10 steel. I am also with you 120% on the "lockers should be free if they're required" thing.

Decided to make this a thread for all of my Halloween park trips. I'll be posting my Kings Island Trip report next week, but for now enjoy the above Kings Dominion report and my one from Dorney Park here.

Looks like a good addition; that part of the park is always kinda dead. Though I'm not a fan of Endeavors (weird since I love Enterprises) or tea-cups-style rides, they will take crowds from other rides, which is always good. I am very excited about the changes to Adventure Express.

I'm with Elissa on this; you can always bundle up for the cold, but there's no escaping sweltering heat. I'm very curious what the ride lineup is going to look like during these winter months, especially given CF's reluctance to operate rides outside of manufacturer recommendations. Last Winterfest they shut down Dominator when it hit 40 degrees.

Yeah it is. And it's a different game each showing, too, I think. The NyteWalkers show this year was pleasantly entertaining too.

They've moved the Corn maze this year; it's now back behind Drop Tower in the underside of the splash boats ride. Better than years past, since it's more than just a narrow hallway of corn that is doused in way too much flame retardant, but still kinda meh. My full report from this past weekend is coming soon, but KD on the whole blew KI out of the water this year when it comes to Haunts. I hope you're able to swing a trip, though. A bad CF Haunt is still worlds better than any SF Fright Fest.

More than zero and less than 101 percent. No one knows dude.

Nice Mini-Report! CF is really particular about temperatures. If it was too cold they won't run the coasters, especially the B&Ms. The weather is looking good (no lower than 50*) for my trip there this weekend, so hopefully I won't run into the same.

Worlds Tallest (tied, but you don't need to know that). I think SF does the same thing with some of their giant frisbees.

If there is any justice in the world, it was struck with a wrecking ball.

If a Wild Mouse ever has a wait over 9 hours I have lost all faith in humanity. I'd bet anything that it was a glitch.

Maybe time for a title change for this thread, @tndank?

Do you mean Kings Dominion? KI and BGW are a little far apart to do in a single weekend. Anyway, yeah that's weird that they're not offering QQ Unlimited on Sundays, but what I think you want is the "Howl-O-Scream Quick Queue Unlimited Plus" option, which for Sunday the 9th is only $130, and includes: That seems like a pretty good deal to me.

(Double Post)

Batman & Robin: The Chiller.

I'm gonna die laughing if they start taking down the tower next, and destroy every fanboys/fangirls convoluted theory about what's happening.

Wouldn't then it also make sense for them to follow a "you can see it but you don't know" thing this time around? I would be very surprised if they announced anything prior to the end of summer 2023. They're marketing the new Boardwalk stuff, and a "new Dragster" would make good driver for 2024 pass sales.

I'm at least happy that the bag limit includes purses that actually exist.
