Giga coasters are all the rage but nothing will ever come close to The Beast!! The smell of the grease on the track to the chains clicking up the hill.. What an absolute perfect roller coaster. I have probably ridden it 500 times in my life and each time was better than the last. My dad tricked me into getting in it when I was just tall enough to ride it. He said it was the Beast-ie.. which was the little kids version back in the 80’s. He told me they hadn’t finished painting the IE on the end.. I was so scared but loved it so much. Lost my old man 5 years ago and anytime I think of that coaster I think of him with the best memories ever. Miss you Dad!! But we all gotta keep riding!!

WOW, just rode this thing for the first time today and got a night ride. All I can say is just wow. This roller coaster is great in a different way than all other coasters. I haven’t been legitimately scared on a roller coaster since I was 10. When I rode this thing in the dark I was fearing for my life and constantly bracing for impact, never knowing when the next turn full of insane laterals would take place. It really can’t be compared to any other coaster in this day an age and I really recommend a night ride. I don’t even know how this stacks up against all the other coasters in the park and even the coasters I’ve ridden. This truly is a once in a lifetime experience.

I rode this ride my first ever time at kings Island this past Saturday!!!! I freaking loved THE BEAST and I see why everyone loves this roller coaster!!!🙂😎 It did not disappoint!

I’ve been on many coasters. This my favorite of all time due to you can’t see much of the park, in the woods, tunnels and being freaking awesome. Try at night or in light rain.

This made me cry. I miss Kings Island so much. Lived in Miamisburg and my grandparents in Monroe and we always used to go to Kings Island every summer multiple times. This brings back so much nostalgia of a time I can never return to with people who are no longer around. I wish to return one day to this park and ride this masterpiece once again.

This is literally the best ride at KI imo. And there's no way you can change my mind that the best time to ride it is at night.

the RAWR! when she goes through the helix will always always give me chills

I love this coaster more than my children.

That's the thing - The Beast isn't really a thrill coaster by today's standards. Its only really intense moment is the big helix during the second half of the ride, the rest of it can almost be compared to a mine train. What The Beast is, however, is a playful and scenic romp through the woods. It's not trying to toss you out of your seat with huge airtime or blow your mind with constant intensity, it's taking you on a wild tour of the most untamed part of the park.

It’s crazier when you ride it. It feels like it is exponentially gaining speed, and that you are going to be decapitated by the tunnel entrance on the left. I’ve never heard of incidents, but you are literally right next to the tunnel, so I bet somebody could touch it. Once you are in the tunnel, it literally feel like you are in the fastest, actively derailing coaster in the world.

you'd get a smoother ride if you asked for a middle seat (in the middle of the car, not in the front or back seat)

They can build all the hyper coasters they want. NOTHING ON EARTH compares to a ride on the beast. For optimal riding, wait until a light rain has slicked up the track a bit. You FLY down those hills. The force of hitting those circles is not comparable to anything else I’ve ever experienced. Except for Son of beast which was the worst ride I’ve ever ridden.

@unrequited8200

From the top of the lift hill of The Beast to the lowest part of the track is a 201 foot height difference. So, in a way, The Beast was like an early attempt at a hyper coaster... definitely sheer insanity for something from 1979!

I had the absolute pleasure of riding this ride at night with a light fog. It had rained earlier in the day. Me and my buddies were lucky enough that after the rain had stopped a fog started to roll in. By time the nightride had come, the whole park had been covered in a layer of that fog. That is a ride I will never forget. By far the best rollercoaster experience I have ever had, and most likely will ever have. Sure, there are taller coaster. There are faster coasters. There are overall better coasters. But this ride? This ride is nocturnal. Once that sun goes down nothing even comes close
