DISNEY'S THE HAUNTED MANSION, PS2: i don't have a nose review (HALLOWEEN SPECIAL)

WARNING: CONTAINS FLASHING IMAGES
It's Halloween! And what better way to celebrate than by reviewing one the creepiest games Disney have ever released. No kidding - despite being marketed as a kids' game, this is surprisingly spine-chilling. Though the biggest surprise of all is that this has little to do with the Eddie Murphy movie. Rather, this game focuses on Zeke Halloway, who's recruited by medium Madame Leota to rid a mansion of evil spirits and to overthrow the evil Atticus Thorn. Or, as I like to call him, Barrel O'Laughs Barry.
This has to be one of the most underrated Disney games I've ever played. While the gameplay itself leaves a little to be desired, the creativity is outstanding. Each and every room has its own unique qualities, and while some are more impressive than others, on the whole, this game is a hauntingly beautiful representation of what a good Disney game can be. Who you gonna call?

alcohol is often refereed to as liquid courage. So replenishing bravery bar with what looks like booze is amazing.

[@jamieharrell5321]

That’s kind of true plus there is some alcohols like if you get drunk you can always like tell the truth i’m not so sure if that’s real or not but hey if they say alcohol is the truth serum well so is courage

[@nickk3077]

Dude, he totally does look like Ichabod, right?! I am glad someone else finally made that connection too!

[@Marwarluigi]

That Dark Reaper was the stuff of nightmares growing up as a kid

[@idonthaveanose]

It's terrifying for a kids' game, right?!

[@Marwarluigi]

i don't have a nose games yessir. It got a teen rating in the US, but nothing could prepare you even for the banshee ladies who gloomed from nowhere and scream at you

[@idonthaveanose]

I really do think 7+ in the UK is a really low rating. Okay, it's obviously got no gore or anything, but I would have been terrified of this game when I was 7. 😂

[@jamieharrell5321]

I won’t lie the reaper was scary but did anybody notice he did a shining reference When he was trying to break down the door

[@RikuHino]

I'm glad people still talk about this game it's really creative and a blast to play even though it's annoying sometimes

[@idonthaveanose]

Agreed. It's a bit of a hidden gem for PS2.

[@RikuHino]

@@idonthaveanose I like to think of the game as Luigi's Mansion if Capcom made it

[@idonthaveanose]

I actually consider it one of Disney's more interesting games. Okay, the gameplay is a little awkward but the atmosphere is great. Thanks for the comment btw! Good to know people remember this game fondly.

[@RikuHino]

@@idonthaveanose no problem m8 I'm glad people still remember it too

[@xXLunatikxXlul]

I absolutely adored this game growing up, I really loved the backstory and the fact it was set in an earlier era than what was shown, in the live action movie. So happy to see this gem of a game getting some recognition and limelight!

[@arfdoge9735]

this was my favorite as a kid, thank you for this review!!! i don't know where to find a rom and don't know about picking up another copy but i may just have to to relive this! i know you will grow!!!

[@idonthaveanose]

Thanks so much for watching! I've always loved this game, it's seriously underappreciated! Glad you enjoyed! :D

[@adamunderwood1313]

And here I thought this was a really bad budget game all those years ago and never got it.. But Dam! It doesn't actually look that bad.

[@StocktonJustin95]

I got this game for my 9th birthday, it took me and my next door neighbor like 3 years to finish it was literally the scariest thing i had played

[@TheNerdstalgicPodcast]

This game was fudging terrifying 😳 😬 i had this on the xbox original and as a family we stayed up late to complete it!

[@idonthaveanose]

This game was far too creepy for 7yos. 😂 I love it though.

[@xXLunatikxXlul]

This game was brilliant, hoping we get a port or remaster/remake!

I won’t lie I love this game but dude when you pause it there’s a creepy candlestick figurine that gives me the heebie-jeebies and the banshee dude I couldn’t touch the game for a week Plus kudos to D Bradley Baker and russi Taylor for doing some awesome voice acting Plus we miss you very much russi Taylor you’ll always be the best Minnie mouse

[@joeydecesari8211]

Just discovered your channel, excellent videos. You do so many reviews on games i wish, but never see people review. Can't wait to see you grow with your channel.

[@idonthaveanose]

Thank you so much! And welcome! :D This month's video is on the way VERY soon. ;)

[@TheLeadG]

I STILL play this game. This game is one of the most under rated licensed games. It’s funny this came out the same time as the movie and actually included tickets to the movie lol

[@idonthaveanose]

Agreed, I love this game

[@jamieharrell5321]

You know you mentioned so many ghost buster references I get the feeling Disney was inspired by Ghostbusters when making this game either that or Luigi’s mansion

[@kyleemerson4191]

My friend bought this game a while back, always thought it was based off the awful Eddie Murphy movie, might actually check it out!!😊

[@idonthaveanose]

Kyle Emerson It's a personal favourite- from a critical standpoint I felt I had to give it a fair score but personally, I really like this game. I would strongly recommend it.

[@gracekim25]

Wait isn’t the movie based on a theme park ride?

[@jamieharrell5321]

Actually the movie was pretty good plus I love the fact that Jennifer Tilly was Madame Leota she was one of my favorite actresses

[@jamieharrell5321]

@@gracekim25 It was more based on the ride and some parts of it were based on the movie but mainly the ride

[@gracekim25]

@@jamieharrell5321 you lost me when you mentioned the movie in that sentence 😅 are you saying the GAME is based on the ride and parts of the movie then?🤔

[@Vanstrudel]

Thanks for the trip down memory lane! I played this game over and over until I had the confidence to play Nightmare mode, which was a great feat for me at the tender age of 9 or 10. Used to scare the shit outta me, but in a good and exciting way!

[@idonthaveanose]

Thanks for the comment! Glad you like this game, it's an old underrated favourite! :D

[@Faded_Chew]

Just found your channel while looking for a review of this game. Love your style of commentary, and your editing is great. You deserve more subs than you have. Speaking of subs, you got one from me! Can't wait to see what else you have planned for the channel! EDIT: Forgot to mention that I love the tidbits of humor you throw in. :P

[@idonthaveanose]

Thank you so much! It's very much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed. I'm actually surprised at the positive response this review has received - I had no idea this game was so fondly remembered. Thanks again for the comment and sub! :D

First off, solid review style. Subbed! Secondly, so glad to see this game being highlighted in such a fun way. I bought it second-hand a few years ago and I love it so much that I do full playthrough of it once a year on Halloween. Now if you'll excuse me, I noticed you have a Shrek 2 review! Awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

[@idonthaveanose]

Ahh yay! Thank you! :D And welcome! I aim to upload a video once a month (or when I can). Thanks for watching, hope you enjoy Shrek 2 too!

Can you review Noddy's Magic Adventure for the PS1, please?

[@idonthaveanose]

IdentFan101 Wayside&HorselandFan I've never played this but it sounds like a masterpiece so I'm adding it to the list.

[@supermariof0521]

@@idonthaveanose What I'm left wondering is that if Disney were to redo "The Haunted Mansion" as a Walt Disney Animation Studios animated movie, you think that could be a cool idea?

[@idonthaveanose]

It would but I've a feeling it would be a lot tamer than this somehow. They'd have to capture the atmosphere and much of it could be lost due to the loss of the interactive aspect.

[@supermariof0521]

@@idonthaveanose Point taken.

[@clintonbailey9343]

Nobody exists that game The Noddy magic adventure no one review that Gameplay

[@GenAqua]

I never finished this, but it's a good game.

[@ADHD.Pictures]

Instead of 999 souls you have to capture it could’ve been 666 souls you had to collect that would’ve gave your objective a more darker tone☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

[@nashanator100]

The 999 souls was a nod to the ride it was based off which makes it more practical

[@gracekim25]

I thought you were going to reference the nightmare before Christmas game🤣 2021 Watched 2020

They always never because they don't liked

[@gracekim25]

Huh?

[@stefanoiulli5462]

Despite this Game is Rated T in the US in Reality the game is not a horror aimed at teenagers and adults Like Most of Modern Horror Games or Old Games With True Sense of Dread (Like Fatal Frame Series) Disney the Haunted Mansion is a Videogame for Small Children who approached the first survival horror Game, Had it been released in 2005 During the introduction the introduction of the E10+ rating It Would Have Fitted Better With the UK pegi 7+ Rating although it is only a Horror game aimed at Primary School children Some Moments in general in the Later Phases of the game that has become more and more thrilling or Scary Compared to the First Phases (From the Tutorial to the Billiard Room)

[@clintonbailey9343]

Survival horror Is so spooky haunted house Spooky video game Like Scooby doo first frights Scooby doo unmasked Scooby doo and the spooky swamp Scooby doo mystery mayhem Scooby doo night of 100 frights

[@natejoe9924]

This game looks fun I never got a chance to play it

[@idonthaveanose]

I would recommend it. It's always been a personal favourite even if the controls are a bit awkward.

[@supermariof0521]

Imagine if Walt Disney Animation Studios did an animated version of "The Haunted Mansion"?

[@idonthaveanose]

If it's anything like the game I'd sure as hell watch it.

[@supermariof0521]

Though seeing as how its Halloween, which do you think would be more scary? 1) Disney remaking "The Black Cauldron" with a B-list celebrity as The Horned King 2) The Magic Buffers being a portal to hell 3) Sony Pictures Animation doing a "TUGS" movie?

[@idonthaveanose]

A Black Cauldron remake would actually be one remake I'd welcome. I hate remakes usually but that movie is underrated. Heavily flawed but underrated. Oh TUGS! I haven't seen that in years, haha!
