Mickey's Halloween Party, Pt. 3



The last Fantasyland Dark Ride for this visit focuses on Snow White's Scary Adventures.



I didn't really notice anything new…



but did my best to capture a few details that are easily overlooked as your Mine Car zips by each scene.



It will be interesting to see how this classic Dark Ride gets updated when it goes down with the rest. Hopefully it will be done as well as the Alice attraction.



Dopey is my absolute favorite character in this movie; so glad he is featured here, too!



I had never noticed the cracked egg on top of the organ before.



Here we have the original hater; she just can't let happiness alone.



It's not jewels that she is after though.



This part of the attraction could stand a little sprucing.



The transitions from plastic jewels to cutouts are a little jarring.



A few menacing hecklers:



The transformation scene. So simple, yet so effective.





How many kids have had the daylights scared out of them by this Old Crone?



Making the poisonous apple:



A detailed view of the witch's shelves:



The trees in the forest are a real bear to photograph because it is so durn dark. Thus…a Dark Ride.







Somehow I actually snagged this shot of the Old Crone and the hologram apple.



I also managed this panorama of the final scene. Be sure to click on it to see it at full-size.



And the poor Old Crone, just about to meet her death.



I'm not sure if this is new, but I had never noticed this lit window outside of the Peter Pan attraction before:



A detailed shot of the contents:



NEXT UP: The Cadaver Dans!

  1. It's not new. The contents may have changed over time, but the Peter Pan window display has been there since New Fantasyland opened. That's the beauty of Disneyland. No matter how many times you've been, there's always something newly discovered.

  2. I never noticed that weird and creepy creature on the detailed view of the witch's shelves. Creepy. I love it!

  3. It may not be new but I've never seen it before either. Great eye. The weird part is I make a point to stand in parts of Fantasyland and look around at things just to enjoy the details. I still missed it. mixed feelings on all dark rides in Fantasyland being redone because I love the effects in how they are now, but time marches on and if they can do it better, I'm sure Walt would have wanted it to be "plussed." I wish them luck. If Alice is any indicator, they'll all turn out fine.
