Kings Island to retire Boo Blasters dark ride

Posted | Contributed by PhantomTails

From the official Kings Island Facebook page:

t’s the end of an era as the Boo Blasters on Boo Hill family dark ride will close to make way for future development. Since 2010, the young and young-at-heart have created cherished memories working together to blast whimsical ghosts, ghouls and goblins back to the underworld on this classic indoor attraction. 👻🪦 Guests will have until Monday, Sept. 1 to take their final rides on Boo Blasters on Boo Hill before its curtain is closed for good.

You would assume the ride system will come back as something 'new'?


Nothing to see here. Move along.

We would hope. There's rumors of maybe a return of Phantom Theater. But also could be a whole new theme. The thing that makes it tough to figure out is the question if they are renewing the Peanuts IP license. If they do then that becomes a possibility. Otherwise it's possible for a Looney Tunes theme, the return of Phantom Theater or removal is an option.


Watch the tram car please....

Just move the second B a little bit and you'd have a compelling theme. Upcharge-able, even.

There are some screenshots floating around that claim KI set a survey a few years ago asking for interest in what was basically a Peanuts-themed version of Midway Mania. Presumably if they did that they’d remove the current ride system.

I think once the bill comes in for changing all the Peanuts stuff they will renew, they just want to play ball with the estate it seems.
