    Former WDW Cast Member and I did a backstage tour of this ride. My favorite fun fact is that in the ballroom, essentially impossible to see on the ride, there's a book of Florida tax laws because the only things certain in life are death and taxes

    Another reason that they have those raven animatronics is because some of them are actually cameras, like the one mentioned in the ride from the attic to the graveyard.

    I remember once riding this in Magic Kingdom and the ride stopped for a few minutes as we were looking down on the ballroom scene. It's one of the best places for that to happen as you get to fully look around and see all the different things happening.

      Yes! This happened to us when we rode it a bit ago too in Magic Kingdom (FL) and it’s so amazing when you get to take it in. I never noticed the dueling guys coming out of the portraits before because I’d focus on the bottom but when you’re stuck there you get to take it all in! Such a beautiful scene, I wish it went slower around it

    Woah wasn’t expecting to see Offhand around these parts but I’m glad y’all had him on! Haunted Mansion is probably the best, most complete overall attraction in the parks, imo, and I love learning more about it. If y’all haven’t already looked, Offhand has a Halloween video that is about four hours of all of times he has talked about the mansion and it is really a great watch, especially tonight on Halloween. Highly encourage you check his channel out if you haven’t already and like stuff like this!

    I am a huge HM fan and visited Tokyo Disneyland this past July. The inside of the Mansion is pretty much identical to MK's original HM. It still has the neon spiders instead of the staircase and the original bride. The outside of the house is a little different, it also has a carriage house.

  • @averyeml
    @averyeml Před 10 měsíci +6

    That “Haunted Mansion was once workshopped to be a water ride” tidbit is just that monster mansion ride from that one Six Flags park.
    My theory is someone knows that there is creative connective tissue between the two (I don’t remember the details but I wanna say some Imagineers worked with Six Flags) and wherever he got that fact the people who wrote it just overestimated how much the Disney crew brought over to Six Flags with them.

  • @christygatto
    @christygatto Před 10 měsíci +6

    It's interesting to me, as someone who loves amusement parks, that I'm not a huge fan of Disney. I don't know if it stems from the fact that as a child in the 80's everything was broken when I visited Disney World. I was 6 or 7 years old when we went for the first time. I only have vague memories. But I remember the stretching room actually being the only part of the Haunted Mansion that freaked me out and it was mainly because it gave me a bit of motion sickness. I remember liking the haunted mansion mainly because it didn't break down. 😂. There were so many rides not working while we were there. The ones that did work broke down. We had to be taken out of the peter pan ride by ladders. And we got stuck multiple times in It's A Small World. Which was the worst ride to get stuck on with that god awful song. We waited forever to ride Space Mountain only to have it shut down just as we were about to get on. As a rollercoaster lover Disney was a disappointment to me. At the time they only had Big Thunder Mountain and Space Mountain neither of which were super impressive. Although not being able to see where you're going in Space Mountain gave it a bit more of an edge. We went back when I was a teenager and I remember thinking everything was either made for little kids or adults I think I was a bit jaded at that point. 🤣 I hope to go back with my nieces someday as they love Disney and have been a few times. We're thinking about planning a west coast trip and hitting up Disneyland this summer.

    Can't believe no one brought up Monster Mansion at Six Flags when Ryan mentioned the rumor that Haunted Mansion was intended to be a boat ride. It was actually designed by ex-Disney Imagineers, so it feels like a non-canonical version of the Disney ride.

    I don't even love Haunted Mansion, especially the overlay, but it is ALWAYS on my must-do list because it's just so iconic and nostalgic, and the lore is so rich. One of my first memories of it is going on it when we were the only ones in the stretching room and that just made it more terrifying as a kid 😂

    I like that it's allowed to be shockingly dark but also fun and light. The entire ride if you're on it for the first time, you're almost 99% certain you will get murdered until it turns out the ghosts are just drunk 60's beatnik guys with no interest in you.

    I agree that the guests die by falling out the attic window into the graveyard. That’s why the caretaker and his dog are scared looking at all of us as we pass him. We’ve just become ghosts.
    As for the queue, my dad raised my brother and me on puns, so mine was the only family I’ve known that could stand in the line and genuinely laugh at the tombstone puns.

    Note on the moms on phones - keep in mind it’s typically the moms organising everything. Booking the next ride on the Genie +, putting in a mobile order or reserving lunch, etc…it really takes away from the overall experience but that’s the system for now. :/

    15:23 if u want to see a ride encapsulate that concept look at monster mansion at six flags over georgia. iirc a guy who worked on things like the country bear jamboree was comissioned to help design and build a ride at the beginning of the 80s for six flags to replace their old brer rabbit dark ride. they concocted the theme of a flooded georgia plantation house that has been occupied by monsters in the wake of its abandonment. its the most technically impressive non disney dark ride of the era and it traumatized many a child in the atl area. 107 animatronics, some of which standing 13 feet tall, and they manufactured a unique fur texture that was mold resistant so they could have so many furry characters on a water ride

    I'm in Florida so I'm a Magic Kingdom kid. I try not to go on busy days and I might or might not wait an hour... But, I will come back to the Mansion several times that day when I know the line will be shorter. 30 minutes is acceptable. (And the Mansion gets ridden at least twice or it was an unsuccessful day. I think the most I've ever ridden it was 5 times in one day. It was a very good day.) Love the discussion. (And ugh, yes, the bride effect... I don't know if there's enough PLUS-sing possible to fix that!)
