WELCOME!!!
Son of Beast is a wooden roller coaster located at Kings Island near Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Son of Beast is billed as the sequel to The Beast. Son of Beast has been considered by many roller coaster buffs as one of the biggest "busts" of all-time, due to its massive bumpiness and jerkiness throughout the ride. At the time of its introduction in 2000, Son of Beast was the only wooden roller coaster in the top 10 categories that are dominated by steel-based coasters for track length, height, speed, and drop. Estimated cost of "Son of Beast" was $20,000,000 and it was built with 1.65 million board feet. The sign located at the entrance of the ride features a large wooden box covered with chains, rope, and metal straps. The front of the box is ripped open, suggesting a large creature of some sort tore its way out. The words, "Son of Beast" are located in the center of the hole.
