Unfortunate news at Kings Island this evening. Individual entered restricted area near Banshee and was struck. Sounds very reminiscent of the Raptor/Batman incidents. More information regarding it...

Good morning! Creating this thread a day in advance at Kings Island will be making an announcement tomorrow regarding their 2024 addition(s). Lately there’s been some rumours of a new coaster in Planet Snoopy, with markers having recently been sighted behind Flying Ace Aerial Chase, where they...

As I was watching videos on the GP's take on Alton Towers' SW8 (which I didn't find much on), I wondered; Is this coaster actually going to be as cool and exciting as we think it will be? We know how Mystic Timbers turned out, great ride with a cool story but an absolutely crap shed that...

I went to Kings Island last Saturday with a friend and we both agreed to ride Beast in the front car (we got the third row, the first car). The ride started and we had a bit of fun. Something seemed off, though. It was way rougher than I remember when I was in at least 7th or 6th grade. I...
