Haunted Mansion reviews
Theme Park Insider readers offer their ratings and reviews for Haunted Mansion, a dark ride in Liberty Square at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.
Written by Robert Niles The Mansion is the happy haunting grounds for 999 singing ghosts, though as the spiel says, "there's always room for 1,000." Trivia: unlike at Disneyland, you enter this mansion through the rear, and not the front door. Also, the ceilings of the "stretch rooms" here expand above you, where at the original Mansion at Disneyland, the stretch room is an elevator that descends to a lower level in the ride.
Readers' rating:
This was an amazing ride that could have went a bit slower to give you time to look at everything. I did not care to be trapped in a stretching room. The ride was outstanding!!! I enjoyed the riding backwards as well. - Meg T. Yes, this IS a must see! It is a masterpiece in atmospheric work. Starting from the graveyard (do NOT take the shortcut) with its interactive and incredibly funny elements (yes, this IS a haunted house, but a funny one) over to the signature pre-show, which is by now the most copied one in the world up to the ride itself. There is so much to see and to discover that you need to do this more than once. And don't be afraid, this is a little creepy and spooky, but as far from being scary as a ghost-themed-ride can be. There won't be monsters, only holographic ghosts being silly. - Chris W. Mild in boos and scares but a perfect 10 in automations! Its fairly dark and you do see some spooks! Its fun! 9/10 - B Higgins It is an incredible attraction with a great pre-show and very fun music. I loved the "ghost host's" voice. It would be a 9/10 but after being stuck in it for 30 minutes it became a 6/10. It was midnight though. - Edward Morgan Another PERFECTION rated attraction. So much to see that it takes repeated viewings. The new queue is also very entertaining. One of my top ten attractions. - Rob Pastor The best attraction at WDW, the Mansion is the pinnacle of WED design from the early years of the theme parks. It's really amazing, even though recent additions have tarnished it. - Sean Huckel More attraction and restaurant ratings: |
