- When the Haunted Mansion breaks down while we are riding it, we are evacuated, which gives us the opportunity to see some of the classic Disney World ride with the lights on. Join us for this lights-on walkthrough of the Haunted Mansion at Walt Disney World.
The Haunted Mansion is a classic spooky tour through an eerie haunted estate at Magic Kingdom park in Walt Disney World Resort.
The disembodied voice of the Ghost Host is your private guide through the cadaverous realm of an eerie haunted estate, home to ghosts, ghouls and supernatural surprises.
Glide past a casket-filled conservatory, Madame Leota’s chilling séance room and a ghostly graveyard of singing specters as you attempt to find your way out. Beware of hitchhikers-these phantom pranksters may follow you home.

What do you think? Would you like to walk through the Haunted Mansion with the lights on?
Definitely!
a dream come true.
For me, the 'magic' is the technical, behind the scenes stuff like the workshop, maintenance room, the office... you know, the places where it's 'employees only!'
*Cast members only
I too, when I saw that, was all "ooh!" and "wow! That's so cool!" XD
It looks like the head in the floating bubble is just chillin'... chewing gum and waiting for the ride to start again. hahahahaha
LOLZ
Mc Kenna this commet made me laugh so hard
xD
CHRISTOPHER NOEL... What's your damage douchebag. No one said they didn't know who Leota was, McKenna merely made a joke about how funny she looked flying around and moving her mouth without the audio. Why'd you have to be a dikhead about it.
Mc Kenna Leota is just an impatient New Yorker trapped in a bubble. Confirmed.
How incredibly awesome...that alone is worth the price of admission
Brett Struble Once I saw space mountain with lights on it was pretty damn awesome
Goats are hot But I'm not a furry I did too lol
Did you look up? I heard it's like a mile high or something like that. X stories high?
@@sloosb me too.
Amazing how they can hide the inner workings and service areas in plain sight simply by controlling your perspective.
Shows how efficient they are with space too. In any theme park, space is at a premium so they have to use what they can.
With the lights off during the ride, and with everything moving around diverting your attention, you wouldn't even think about looking down behind you (and you can't with the Doombuggy limiting your vision)
And its also a smart idea to have repair equipment so close, so when the do nightly maintenance, everything is right there and doesn't have to be brought in from a farther off workshop.
Intelligence + Technology = Magic
Which is a product of the Disneyland imaginers
Don't hurt yourself on that edge, Picolas
Picolas Cage that’s the point
Picolas Cage so edgy
The little kid though! "You don't scare me!" "Is evacuate good?" "I wanted to see the ghost party."
Crystal Flame that kid is braver than me ^-^
He makes this video 10 times better
(he or she)
Or they
@@madisonbrooks5793 or it
Oh man I would of killed to do that. It must of been fantastic to see everything so closely.
I would kill to take that tour! I love the Illusions, but I am also very mechanical inspired, and would love to know how they did some of them. others I already know. but I wont say because it would ruin the illusions for people who Aren't interested in the mechanics in back opposed to the visual effects
Personally I'd like to see it with the lights on. They have been making it darker and darker each progressive year and some of the effects are being missed cause you cannot even see them any more! (no lighting in that area)
Read the book if you want to learn about the illusions
But it ruined it for the kids
I don't care if people think the lights on take away from the magic....This is THE RIDE that I'm proud to say, if you didn't believe in "Disney Magic" this was the ride to charm you. Thank you For sharing!!!
I'm touching the wallpaper! I'm touching the door!
I would do that!! haha
for real I saw guy get escorted off Splash Mountain he walked right past Brer Rabbit!!!!!I was like bro you're not going to reach out and touch him? that is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!!!!!!!
Rose Strife14 We got stuck on splash mountain and had to be escorted off. I touched his fluffy butt. There was no other choice but to touch.
Jessica Cirullo *There was no other choice BUTT to touch
Ah ha hahh is funny
awe I feel so bad for the little girl that couldn't get her ghost party lol
Not gonna lie... if a ride breaks down while I'm on it and I have to be evacuated, I would really love to take a walk like this!
Layne Ditto!
Thats why they take the safest most cinematic route
Me, I’ll just make the ride stop
Not if it’s a coaster though 😳😳
i wish they went the other way through the ballroom attic and graveyard
for safety they cant but i know if you work the haunted mansion or sometimes cast members get to ride it lights on theres so many perks being a cast member
Without sound, Madam Leota looks like she is chewing gum
Lol, the little girl. "Is an evacuation good?!"
If it's the haunted mansion, yes.
PackageIsHere
If it’s Disney, hell yes.
I’d totally wanna stop and look closely at everything. Like the book at madame leota’s table, and the library stuff too haha just to see what it says
Man, I have wanted this to happen to me SO BAD for years and years now. I’d even pay extra money for a walking behind the scenes tour of the full mansion like this lol. Consider yourself lucky! The closest I’ve ever gotten to this was one time when we went through most of Pirates with all the lights on and another time when we had to evacuate Splash Mountain and got to walk through most of the entire ride with all the lights on as well. Always such a cool experience, especially when you’ve ridden those rides more times than you can count and really love taking in all the details of a beloved attraction like this. Plus, if the ride does break down and you end up having to evacuate, you always get a free fast pass to come back and ride it again later. Getting stuck and having to evacuate a ride like this is just a win-win for everyone! Really hope this happens to me one day!
I love this "backstage" sort of look at The Haunted Mansion. Thanks for sharing.
"I'm touching the wallpaper!" Hahaha Love that! I would have had that exact same reaction.
I always dreamed one day getting stuck on the mansion and walking out. I great way to enjoy all the details you don't normally see.
That is amazing. I’m surprised it’s so clean.
I'd imagine they keep it very clean, due to the fact that people like to dump cremated remains of their loved ones in the ride. So the ride gets vacuumed on the daily with a special vacuum to clean it up.
ShellyAmpora cant tell if your being sarcastic (jk but like what if you weren't)
Quasar5 Aj nah, people really do dump the ashes of their dead loved ones in the ride for some reason, I’ve heard it’s a huge issue.
In fact Walt Disney himself wanted the mansion to be clean because he didn’t want anyone to think the decoration was real dirt
I recently listened to a podcasts interviewing a h
Janitor at Disney who has worked there for decades . Cleanliness is of utmost importance. Pretty sure the guy wrote a book about it too
I love the uniforms that they have the cast members wear for this attraction. It makes it so much better!
0:57 I like the little "Ha!" at the end of the knocks!
Cool beans! I got to do this in the graveyard section at WDW. I was so close to the graveyard fence I had to lean on it to get out of my car. Turns out that it's not connected to the ground, so I almost broke a piece of DisneyWorld history by putting my weight on it :)!
I've also done this at the Indy ride at Disneyland- it's even BETTER there!
Jabroniville I'd LOVE to walk through the graveyard and the attic with the lights on!
My boyfriend and I had a walk through/evacuation experience on Winnie the Pooh.. lol. Not as cool as this though!
I had the same thing happen to me
That bird on the chair looks so real!
I've been on this ride twice when it HD as stopped. Once around the ghost piano player and once while descending on our backs which was quite comfortable actually. But the ride starred back up, so we never got to walk out.
This ride has huge capacity. Shown when evacuating the large number of people to get out. SO supremely cool to see this marvel behind the scenes. Most impressive!
At about 3:10-3:12 there’s an orb. See it? It darts from right to left really quickly. It’s not a bug or dust. It’s one of the happy haunts. The haunt isn’t happy with all the mortals touching stuff.
Geez, even with the lights on, it's creepy as heck. And the clock's still running backwards!!
Bonn Afide 😨😨😨😨
That dude that was guding them out totally sounds like he would do the voice sound effects for that very ride too.Did the peeps at least get a fast pass or something ?A free desert coupon ?something?
it'd be one of the best things if this happened to me!! I knew the Doom Buggies can spin, tilt, and so on, but I didn't know that they are so "unstable" that you can actually get thrown from one!! Is it the track the Buggies run on or some chain under 'em?
With ours it said “a happy haunt has disrupted our tour, please stay seated and we'll continue shortly”
That happened with ours too! Thee doombuggy stopped in front of the singing busts. That tune is still stuck in my head lol
Actually, hold on, mine was a year ago too! Was this in Florida in late July 2019?

It's amazing how the lack of a simple element like darkness can take away the whole mystique of this ride.
You got to touch the wall, NIIIIIIIICE and see the multi stair scene UP CLOSE. I'm jealous lol.
To me this would have been even better than the ride itself
Disney should release a Blu-ray of every ride and how it works. That shit would sell like hot cakes. Everyone wants to know how the magician does his tricks.
that's the greatest tour for me when i visit disneyland .when a ride breaks down and you get to see what the ride really looks like
I think walking through a dark environment outside the safety confines of the doom buggy is scarier 😄 nice behind the scenes footage !
Cool! I always thought it would be scarier to walk through the ride. Indiana Jones broke down on us last week but we were 10 steps from the end of the ride :(
Thank you for posting this, this is an experience almost nobody gets to see!!
happened to me at Disneyland Anaheim ,way cool, the ride failed when I was at Madame Leota,they turned the work lights on and wow all the secrets came to life!
For an evacuation..that took pretty damn long. If that were a fire that would've been tragic
liveand learn I would guess that there are emergency exits they would use for a real emergency. This evacuation was not life or death.
We don’t stop the ride for a fire. We have a special procedure to keep the ride moving to get people out quicker. If the ride stops, an emergency evac is called. This is very obviously not an emergency evac and there are emergency exit doors throughout to allow quicker exits.
That was a very fun video how did you feel walking through the haunted mansion rooms did you feel like you were watched and did you hear any haunted disembodied voices and im happy that you survived your walk through the haunted mansion
Okay,Disney needs to hire more overnight maintenance workers and pay them better so they wouldn't have this issue
Actually, malfunctions like this occur most often for two reasons, and they both have to do with safety, well maintained sensors, and people thinking they can get away with something.
1.) a safety harness is unsecure or was not deployed correctly. On this ride, it means at the beginning, a guest didn't pull down all the way on the safety bar and the CM in charge of checking it (which they have to do in the dark) did not catch it. Sometimes guests will do this because they want to be able to lean out further than they should to view the ballroom.
2.) Something was dropped on the track that could impede movement. This can be a bag accidentally dropped, again hard to spot in the dark, but sometimes guests drop or throw things on purpose so they can feel they special they left something on the ride. The haunted mansion notably has a problem with people leaving ashes or personal items of the departed.
this is so cool!!!!! I got to do this on the great movie ride
I did it on Splash Mountain.
omg, was Elphaba still there?
Is it true that in the area around Leota there is a hole? I was told it was implemeted to stop people from climbing out and reaching her
I believe so.
Think of a donut, But the actual donut is the donut hole, Y'know?
GingerTyPerior Some1 commented that they store the Nightmare Before Christmas stuff down there! What u commented could be real☺
This video is the HM in Florida. They don't do the the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay in Florida like they do at Disneyland in CA. You can see in the video (if you watched it) with the lights on that there is a black catwalk type ring walkway around the Leota scene.
I've read other stories that CA is different and it used to be just an open hole (for a storage area below) but someone freaked out when the ride stopped in the room while they were riding alone and tried to climb out in the dark and fell down to the concrete floor about 12 ft below and got hurt bad (broken bones) and apparently was stuck down on the floor below in pitch black for over an hour yelling for help but riders just thought it was part of the show for the ride. In CA they supposedly since the incident have some kind of a net system around the hole in the Leota scene to catch anyone who tries to climb out and falls in.
It would have been awesome if this happened at the Ballroom scene.
I LOVE this ride💖thanx a bunch for posting😗
I wonder what they would do for a person like me who can’t walk at all if this would happened for me while I was on it
1:60 wait... all of that was right behind the clock? Hidden in absolute plain sight? I'ma try to look backwards when I ride. Perhaps I got the layout incorrect while you were walking or you did a sudden cut and I didn't notice. If it truly IS hidden in plain sight, that's so surprising that NO ONE notices!Of course, the backing shell of the Doom Buggie does restrict your view looking back lol.
Siena H even if you stick your head out you’re likely not going to see it since they only light key parts of the scene and it’s also very dark
Siena H I looked up the ride's map and seance circle is right behind the clock! I'll try to look behind me the next time I go!
It's just as beautiful with the lights on.
Oh gutted, I know everyone is saying they wished it'd happen to them to see backstage but personally this is my favourite ride and I'd hate to spoil the magic - by the way I clicked before realising and paused to comment (I shall now back away with my eyes closed 😂)
I wanted to scream at my screen, "MADAME LEAOTA! YOU ARE A FLOATING HEAD THING! GET THE DOOMBUGGIES WORKING AGAIN!
Sooooo Lucky!!!!
I still want to live in there.
OMG! Madame leota has BLONDE hair! I always thought it was blue!
MrAwesomedude808 That was probably the lights that made it appear to look blue. Yes she's a blonde.
I have been trying to get stuck on this ride forever!
I wish this happens to be one day.
What a perfect opportunity to sneak from the line, find a hiding spot, spend the night in the mansion. Just make sure you have snacks, flashlight, and empty bottle, and wet wipes wirh you.
Some people don't realize how high up they are. One kid jumped out at the Crystal Ball scene for a better look or to snag a prop, and ended up falling 16 feet to his death in the darkness.
Does Disney have a behind the attractions secret tour?
Did anyone else notice the bell floating next to Madam Leota?
hard to believe an attraction that was built in 1971 continues to entertain millions of people each year, over half a century later
When Bobby and Jeanne socialize!!!
Ironically having to be evacuated at the highest point on Splash Mountain would not be as intoxicating an experience.
Sooo Cool! Leota looks like she's actually floating - What is she attached to?????
Tom Crossman Creative VERY VERY thin cables
Am I the only one the loves the way the rides smell.
Ah yes, the smell of human ashes being spread by the friendly neighborhood nutcase.
@@tdwp0610 now I'm all nostalgic for Disneyland.
I legit got stuck at the same part, but we just sat there for an hour, didn't get to evacuate.
I've never been to Disney, and u can tell it in what I'm gonna say .I always thought the haunted mansion was a walk through .Anyway for some reason with a haunted elevator.
Disneyland's Haunted Mansion has a very nice indoor queue that's kind of like a walkthrough. As for a haunted elevator that would be either the Stretching Room at the Haunted Mansion (it's a little preshow) or the ride experience of The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.
I know im one year late lol. Walt did plan the mansion for a walk through. After Walt passed the Disney imagineers decided to make it a ride through!
It originally was. The ghost host was an actual host, or rather a floating lantern, leading you through the mansion.
Not sure when it changed.
Was the crowd getting unruly toward the end of the video? Sounded like a lot of shouting was going on.
It kinda kills the magic, but heck, it's still fascinating to watch--to see how all of it works.
thank you for this! it gives me an idea how the new Leota works. I bet I could figure out mechanically how to set it up.
I would've taken cute instagram pics with the iconic purple HM walls... lol
I love it -- the black raven is still looking around at 0:58! "Where's Madame Leota?" "Oh, she's just hanging around somewhere...." The funny part is that these guest are getting a small taste of what the original concept was for the Disneyland Haunted Mansion -- as a "walk thru" attraction (before the "Doombuggies").
04:30 poor kid 😟
having to walk out of a ride is one of the coolest experiences you can have. i had to do it on Monsters Inc.
It really is!
Wished they had filmed the floating candlestick spot
I got stuck at that point once. Just as we entered the attic (Disneyland) and had to watch the candle floating by over and over for about 10 minutes 😂
This was pretty cool, and it's proof that we're all overgrown kids.
Synick Tjerevis a child in every adult heart.😁😁😁
recognizing coordinator Robbie's voice
OH my! Wish I could experience the behind the scenes works behind the magic on my absolute favorite ride!
It looks like schematics and replacement parts for the ride vehicles/ track.
I would think that would have to be the most surreal experience, being stuck on a ride at Magic Kingdom, or any ride for that mater at Disney World. Which got me to thinking what other cool rides would be awesome to get stuck on? BTW, i wonder how long The Haunted Mansion was down?
der22672 I'd love to get stuck on either Pirates, or Peter Pan's Flight. As much as I enjoy Small World...that music just keeps going and going and going. I couldn't do that!
Amanda Torres you'd love it for about the first 20 minutes, then you'd never want to hear "A Pirates' life for me" again. And yes, this is speaking from experience.
metropod between 2003 and 2009, we had annual passes. Not only did my husband and I get to listen to the music from Tampa to Disney, but in the parks and then we heard it every night lol. Our kids had the CD though I'm not sure which volume. It had Pirates & Off to Neverland. Some kids listened to Barney over and over...ours did Disney songs. 😃
If you know WDW, so you know where that one area is for the Pirates line that has the chess board? We used to use that spot to cool off too. I'm sure it is nothing to somebody working there all day though! I could handle a few hours for sure! Actually, I have been wanting to get passes again. Maybe we'll do a challenge 😂😂
I got stuck on Big Thunder Mountain once. They evac you through the mountain so you get to see the insides of the structure. it is and always will be my most magical moment. I actually got stuck with a bunch of cheerleaders and a camp counselor. there's a video on my channel of how they distracted the kids from freaking out. it was awesome!
Evacuating from pirates was pretty cool. Someone had to get in the water and back our boat up from the jailed pirates with the dog back into the previous room with all of the pirates on the street. We walked down the street and up a staircase that took us outside behind all of adventure land. Not too shabby!
I'm amazed that they let you photograph... oh... you Scofflaw!
Wow That's Crazy Awesome!!
I love to walk through The Haunted House the hallways would be fun !
This ride broke down when we were on it about a month ago. It was really kind of cool, actually.
I hope this happens to me one day!
So cool with the lights on
0:22 - That's an effect that NOBODY talks about. With the lights on we can see a boom arm of some kind (behind a scrim, I think?), but what is it doing? What's making the little astral light trail it's leaving behind?
I just learned yesterday that you are actually in a huge warehouse not in the actual mansion (except for the stretching room) which is cool but kinda creepy
I always assumed they would walk you out the nearest fire exit. But that would put guests outside backstage and break the entire day's illusion as opposed to just the one attraction. Now the props crew will have to go back through the entire ride and replace all the cobwebs...haha
I love watching this !
That was AWESOME! I always hope that would happen while I was on it. I would love to see all of that stuff up close..
I'd love to do this, I am severely visually impaired and the haunted mansion is my favorite ride
Awe your blind I feel so bad awe
I can't watch this video enough! So wonderful!!!
dude, this is cool! behind the scenes!
Do you get something special if this happens? Like a death certificate? That would be cool.
Mediahound no not even a fake one.
a cast member at the end said they’ll get fast passes
This is the one ride that I hope to get evacuated off of, one day lol!!
OMG, this is a dream come true. I would be crying tears of joy if this happened to me :D
i had to evacuate Monsters Inc, but it wasn’t as awesome as this.
oooo... please leave the theater through the door to your left.
used to work this attraction
