The graveyard of old Kings Island rides

Have you ever wondered what happens to rides when their motors have stopped, their wood turned rotten and steel to rust? Since Kings Island’s opening in 1972, a lot of attractions have come and gone. The former rides graveyard on display during the Halloween season at Kings Island allows guests to grieve over deceased rides from the past that are lost, but not forgotten.
