The Haunted Mansion is one of Disney's longest running and most popular dark rides. Since it's grand opening in 1969, the attraction has become an iconic piece of Disneyland.
Thanks to everyone who suggested this video as well (sorry but there's just too many of you guys to mention everyone by name in the video)

I'm completely on your side about keeping the Haunted Mansion as original as possible. They're making another Haunted Mansion movie with Guillermo del Torro as director, and while I'm sure it's going to be amazing, I really hope they don't let it influence any changes they make to the ride the way they did with Pirates of the Caribbean!

I was disappointed that they tossed the pop-up ghosts as it was the only part of the ride that I ever thought of as being "scary". I also thought the bride with the glowing red heart was always memorable and was confused as to why they removed her.

@memelord7643 5 лет назад

I read the backstory its actually pretty horrifying the backstory is basically she was a money whore i think that was the case what she kept on doing is getting married and chopping off the heads of her husbands that's why she's always weilding an axe and the pictures altered to the heads being removed

When we got to the hall part of the ride i noticed the new suit of armor but didnt think anything of it but right when our car got next to it the damn thing lunged at me . I screamed bloody murder and the guys in the car behind us laughed their ass off !

@theshape7214 3 года назад

@charzakwinn1398 6 лет назад

I love how the Claude Coats' train of thought for a darker scarier haunted mansion was later echoed by imagineer Jeff Burke, and how a much darker and grim version of the Haunted Mansion found it's way to Europe in the form of Phantom Manor in Disneyland Paris. You can still see how Phantom Manor's design also harkens back to earlier designs by Harper Goff. Phantom Manor or "Ravenswood Manor" as it is unofficially known has quite a tragic backstory, and lacks most of the whimsical elements the Original American versions have. It is funny to see how all these versions have similar, yet different themes.

@johnwatson3948 6 лет назад

9:40 - saw that by the 1990’s they had also gotten rid of the ghost shrunken heads that popped up behind tombstones in the graveyard scene - they were scary but maybe people were grabbing them or something.

@thulcandran 6 лет назад

The pop up ghosts in the cemetery are still there. They were never removed, they just have a tendency to break down a lot so they might not be working on any given day.

@shawnjorgensen2951 6 лет назад

Very interesting but how did you not include the gun shot in the dancing scene and how the only way to replace that glass is to take the roof off? That is like my favorite trivia about the ride.

@satanicsuicide666 5 лет назад

When I went to California a few years ago, I rode this version of the ride multiple times just to see if I could spot where the glass was hit. I love how they fixed it on the cheap too! Instead of ripping off the roof, and closing the ride for months to repair. they put a fake plastic spider on it and left it as is because it looked like a spiders web. I think it was a brilliant idea, and a very cheap yet effective way to fix the ride without closing it down for months on end! :D

As for the bride changes, I would have mentioned that the tone of the bride was significantly changed in the 90's. Before, she was mysterious; you weren't sure if she was sympathetic or threatening. The change in the 90's made it much clearer that she was sympathetic. The picture at 9:32 is one of WDW's brides.

I find it interesting how the Mystic Manor, Disneyland Hong Kong's version of the Haunted Mansion, shows more light-hearted elements that was more child-friendly spooky.
