The Haunted Mansion for Halloween, Pt. 3



Next on our Halloween Haunted Mansion tour, your doombuggy has gone uphill and entered the corridor. Any interest in this wallpaper? I thought so.



One of the times that I rode the HM, the doombuggies broke down and we had to walk off the attraction. With the lights on. Don’t think I didn’t go crazy taking pictures as quickly as I could. I would never have noticed these amazing details on the doors.



With the lights off, this is a very difficult area to get decent shots of. Still, I try!



If only they put a real cast member in the suit of armor to scare the crap out of today’s guests. That would be golden. In my early days of going to the Park, I used a flash. Shame shame shame.



One of the original Rolly Crump details that survived the final design was this amazing chair:



One of my favorite tableaus is the coffin slowly rising up and down:



The thirteen hour clock; ever noticed the shadow of the hand/claw that swipes across it?



And then…and then…the seance room with Madame Leota.



That face and that voice; you’d have to smoke a few packs a day to capture the original one just right.



Want to read the spell book? Let me know how it works.
