King's Island MY FIRST TIME! The Beast, Mystic Timbers, Fireworks, Phantom Theater Encore & MORE!

[@SuperEnthused]

MY FIRST TIME AT KINGS ISLAND - hope you all enjoy experiencing it with us! 💙💙💙

[@ChinaDollTravels]

I loved it

[@CortHiatt]

I loved what you said about The Beast! Just too bad my first loop coaster is no longer there, The Vortex.

[@calebmills2345]

My home park! So glad you went!

[@andreathompson1441]

I love KIngs Island and the blue ice cream (I’ll always call it Smurf ice cream since that’s what it was called there in the 80’s. PS they had the best Smurf boat dark ride back then too! 💙)

[@Ninjjulie]

My favorite Cedar Fair park! Love The Beast and that blue ice cream is amazing. ❤️

Wow! Kings Island!!

[@JohnKelly2]

If a show based on an extinct dark ride can make people who have never seen the dark ride fall in love with the ride, it's a damn good show!

[@SuperEnthused]

Agree!

[@DarvonBrown]

King's Island is really underrated and I am so glad you were able to experience it. I have a feeling Cedar Point is coming up and I am so excited. You are the best Jackie! 😃

I know I'm leaving this comment super late, but watching this one was really special. My wife went here all the time as a teenager so we watched this last night and she shared all her memories of the park. Thanks!

Holy Moley the voices in that live show!! The singers were incredible and the actors sounded so professional! I would have loved that even without having been on the original ride.

Sometimes there is also a male and female doing aerial work during the show.

[@thecnnrfamily1417]

THANK YOU for including so much of the Phantom theatre show for those of us who will never get to see it, we could feel your love for it through our tv and it was all smiles here in this household ! Another excellent vlog from you miss Enthused , the best Kings Island vlog I’ve seen our whole family loved watching it with our lunch today 😻

[@suerodriguez1226]

Good you loved King Island. best Video of your trip besides the Holiday World one Jackie.

[@SuperEnthused]

I think so too, Sue, so thank you!!

[@dennisud]

THE park I went to a Dozen times as a kid! Still. Great park. It's mind boggling that Disney World and King's Island are celebrating 50 years to as I was there at the beginning and later on too! Love the video and YES, I will hit this park to relive and live anew what was and is there!

[@patrickfairchild2330]

Can't beat a live show - such a throwback

[@angelakosar1003]

Kings Island gives me big Magic Kingdom vibes! Thanks as always for sharing the fun!

[@SuperEnthused]

Totally top tier!

[@greggseiter1412]

You’re in my neighborhood, we live 8 minutes away. I worked there in 1977-78, and played in the Clown Band ! Have a safe and fun trip !

[@UncleLupe]

We went to Disney to celebrate their 50th anniversary but it doesn't feel like the are celebrating the history of the park. This nighttime show gets you in the feels and celebrates Kings Island history. Another great video. Disney take notes.

[@SuperEnthused]

Everything about this really felt like a celebration of the park and its history, so well done!

[@shawndillon5827]

Kings Island is the best! And the blue ice cream is the best. Must have sprinkles though!

[@ThemeParksAndAttractions]

Another great video SUPER ENTHUSED love Kings island !

[@robbiehooley3639]

I REALLY hope they'll bring the Phantom Theater back! I remember that ride being really good! Kings Island is a great park, with so much to offer! I absolutely loved Mystic Timbers! The Beast, Diamondback, Orion, The Bat, and Adventure Express are all well worth riding, too! I'm happy you guys had a great time!

[@dreamy.reader52]

Amazing vlog!! I loved seeing everything and learning about the history of this beautiful park!! ❤

[@travisnoffsinger1703]

Every time I ride The Racer, I always have to take a look to see if Mr. Brady’s lost architectural drawings are sitting in one of those seats. 🤣🤣 Awesome video of an awesome park. Great job Jackie! King’s Island holds so much nostalgia and good feelings for me and so many others. I loved the old Hanna Barbera theming from my childhood days. I gotta admit some of the tributes to those times kinda hit me in the heartstrings. Totally agree that the Phantom Theater show was one of the best ever. We need to lobby King’s Island to bring back that ride and use those same performers as the voice actors! 🙂 Mystic Timbers is one of the best coasters around and The Beast is an absolute legend and one of a kind. Glad that you and Sam enjoyed King’s Island and hope you all come back again soon! 🙂

[@michaelschroeck2254]

Thanks for visiting my park! I grew up there. I worked there as a caricature artist for 7 years! A great park to visit!!

[@RamblingVlogger]

I’m absolutely loving this series! It’s so much fun watching you experience things for the first time and it’s like I am there and not recovering from surgery. You’re definitely helping me get through this! Safe travels! Send my best to Sam!

[@whobdis77]

so happy I went back to find this. Kings Island was my first theme park and for a midwest kid it was like walking Magic Kingdom. The tower with the fountains was so cool. The racers early on was their only coaster. Later was the beast. Still unique to me as it goes through woods and uses the natural landscape. Your analogy to a long train ride is pretty accurate really..even sounds like it at times if my memory serves me. The rest though doesn't ring a bell though as it's changed of course. Looks like the festhause is still there..always good for a beer when I got older. I always was jealous of those who lived close and probably played a role years later in moving to FL. This has me thinking of going up again taking a visit. Thanks as always.

[@peggynewton3904]

Don't know if anyone else would remember but there was a time with the Racer that one of the cars went backwards and THAT was an experience!!

[@wave17019]

Yes, remember the backwards racer. It was such a unique experience trying to hang on

[@sherrismith9002]

I remember. ❤️

[@SightseeingWithSavvy]

The backwards racer always had a longer line than forwards 😊

[@stormchaser419]

The Phantom Theater show really honors it's history. So many things done well in the play and performance.

[@SuperEnthused]

It’s wonderful!!

[@zakkgilbert9426]

Boo Blasters used to be the Phantom of the Opera. The queue in the first big room scared me so bad as a kid that I was bawling and had to be walked back out the entrance! 😂😂😂

[@ryanb1489]

Jackie thanks for bringing the 3 theme parks from my childhood to your vlog Kings Island Holiday World and Kentucky Kingdom. We could never afford to go to Disney when I was a kid so it was nice to see you experience these parks. Hopefully I’ll see you again when I’m at Disney August 14-17. Enjoy this gas money as a token of appreciation for all you do! Be safe ✌🏻🍻

I am so happy you went to King's Island!! I grew up going there with my family, we would go every summer the last weekend before school started. Watching your video brought back so many wonderful memories. The Beast and the Racers are two of my absolute favorite wooden roller coasters. Thank you, thank you!! Loved your video!

You and Sam add so much to the love of theme parks. Not everyone can afford Disney, and the parks around the country offer all the things that are old fashion America, from the food to the exhibits,farm shows and music. Thanks so much for the experience..

I’ve been going to Kings Island since I was little and know it very well. It was really fun to see one of my favorite vlogs experience it for the first time. It’s always been a happy place for me to escape to once a year and you seemed to really capture that special atmosphere that I always feel when I’m there. Thanks for including it in your trip! I always look forward to your videos, they’re so lighthearted and fun! A welcome escape from these stressful and often difficult days.

Glad you love Kings Island island as much as we do. Boo blaster used to be phantom theater, when it first opened it was Enchanted Voyage. Woodstock coaster used to be called The Beastie.

[@karenjarrell5978]

How fun!! Such great memories! Hearing the theme song to the Enchanted Voyage brought it all back. The Enchanted Voyage was a ride similar to the Small World ride @ Disney World. A cute little boat ride in the AC but that song.... lol! If my memory serves right, the wooden western town was home to a "train robber" style ride on the train and in its early days had animal exhibits similar to a zoo. My days at KI was in the 70's and you can say that a LOT has changed over the years. Thanks for sharing your visit!

Enjoyed this very much. The first time I was there was in the early 1970s and the Snoopy area was Hanna Babara area which was good. Not only The Brady Bunch was there but they also filmed an episode of The Partridge Family there too.

[@marylou.d6379]

Kings Island and Cedar Point were our go to parks growing up in Ohio. we had another cool park, Geauga Lake, which was adjacent to Sea World Ohio. it closed a while back. summers were never boring in Ohio. it's good to see you and Sam enjoying all this

[@Sarahgingersnap]

Thank you so much for this!! I spent the majority of the summers of my adolescence at King's Island. Phantom was still open then and the park was owned by Paramount the last time we went.

Hi Jackie and Sam! So happy to see you two in my neck of the woods! Of course, I’m very partial to Holiday World, Cedar Point and Kings Island being at all parks multiple times myself. I was a bit bummed that your experience on Diamondback wasn’t your fav. But I have heard that it’s developed a rattle over the years. My family happen to have the best experience on diamond back, it was only a month old when we had our first experience… The guy seating people at that time asked if we had ever written diamondback before and we hadn’t and he said well you need to ride in the back then escorting us all to the back car. It was a night ride. I have never experienced anything like that on any other roller coaster since!! DA BEST!!

[@ChinaDollTravels]

3:38 I love a headrest on a wooden roller coaster 🎢 too

I’m so bummed you were at KI and I missed you! We have passes and go all the time! So glad you got to experience it though! Make sure you come back!

[@ktj4691]

The first time we went to King's Island, the lines were so low that we got to sit on The Beast and go a couple of times without getting off. Back in the day, when Paramount ran the show, they had a Nickelodeon section with the BEST suspended kiddie coaster called Runaway Reptar. I guess it's still there but themed as something else now.

[@SuperEnthused]

I would have LOVED getting to ride back to back!

[@MrKillerRC]

Mystic Timbers is great. It has no trim brakes or mid brake run. Fast and smooth from beginning to end.

Kings Island is where we go and get season passes cause it is 30 minutes from home.. Mystic Timbers is my favorite and of course the Banshee. Glad you enjoyed the park !!

[@GregsDisneysadventures]

So awesome too see you at my home park totally love kings island

[@christybrainard6134]

I'm telling my age here a bit but I went to Kings Island the first year that it opened. The phantom theater was a favorite ride of mine and I was so sad when it closed. The boiler room was the original ride exit. Finally my daughter sang in show choir with the Maestro of the show several years ago and he has preformed at Kings Island and a local dinner theater since he graduated. I'm glad that you enjoyed our local park!

[@wave17019]

Jackie - The shaded park you were in with the Kings Island History markers used to be dedicated to all the Paramount Films when Paramount owned the park. Wayne's World AMC Pacer car sat in there along with a huge model of the USS Enterprise

[@Sportyfamilia]

Night time show was pretty cool 🥰 keep me enjoying! Can’t wait to see what other awesome experience you’ll show us! 💙💖

[@becklyn]

Thank you so much for the video!! I used to go to this park on school trips back in the Paramount days (Phantom Theater was TOTALLY my favorite ride, btw!). When I got older, I really enjoyed Cedar Point, and that's usually where we'd go, but my family went here for a couple days last year, and we absolutely LOVED it (even more than Cedar Point)! We also fell in love with the overall theming, and that's pretty much what sold us. We're actually going back next weekend, so your video was perfect timing to help get me amped up even more. ❤️ Also, non-related, you were totally right about Fort Wilderness. We just got back a week and a half ago, and we cannot stop thinking about the campground and our overall stay. It was so magical! Thank you, as always, Jackie!! ❤️

[@hayleymullins537]

The Woodstock coaster used to be called the Scooby Doo back in the 70’s. It was my first roller coaster. So glad you and Sam had a great time.

[@MikoHazuki_247]

We used to go here every summer back in the 90s, when it was owned by Paramount. Taking the backwards side on The Racer was the way to go! So many rides from back then are long gone now (Vortex, King Cobra, Top Gun), but The Beast was always the ride I came back to, over & over. I think this video has convinced me to go back; the last time I went was about ten years ago & it had lost some of its luster. So glad that Cedar Fair has plussed it up & given the park the love it deserves!

[@XMirandaX]

Paramount really ran the parks into the ground. Cedar Fairs really saved these parks. Now the landscaping is awsume and better world class rides are here. Top Gun is still there, now called the Bat.
