Disneyland's Haunted Mansion SECRETS They DON'T Want You To Know!

[@GOLF4METOO]

What a great collaboration of this video. You guys should do more of these production together. It was so informative. Btw Chris, you are so fortunate to have such a beautiful and witty wife as Amanda. You guys have a wonderful Christmas.....Hatboxghost.

[@provostparkpass]

Okay you're going to make us cry! Thank you! This means the world to us. We're happy you enjoyed this video and we're happy that you are here!

[@co-hostamanda3240]

Thank you!!!🥰🥹☺️

This was fun, thankyou. As to the Haunted Mansion, I will always remember as a kid in the mid 60's when they put it on hold for the World's Fair, the white Mansion building was just sitting there with the wrought iron fence around it. When we would go to the park, walking around New Orleans Square, and to Tom Sawyer Island, and to the Indian Camp, Mother would tell us that it was a Haunted House, and that was why it was just sitting there with nothing happening at the building. While they were waiting to open it. As to Pirates vs Haunted Mansion, I use to enjoy Pirates of the Caribbean more than HM, but then they started to go and try to make it politically correct, which spoiled the playful fun of the ride, (like how they spoiled the fun of Roger Rabbit). and then they started shoving "Jack Sparrow" into the attraction, which after a while seemed to cheapen the event of the attraction. So now it's hard to say which I enjoy more. I do remember as a kid, dreaming of living in the old swamp shack playing the banjo. So now what makes the attraction, or either of the two fun if I get to ride it with someone, especially if they have never experienced either of them. Oh, and forgive me, but I feel that the Holiday overlay, (nightmare before Christmas) is too long. Why couldn't they do the Muppets holiday or normal in one of the empty buildings in DCA? Oh, and "Hat Box Ghost". I don't want to win anything (other than getting to share with you my idea for a series of videos for Miles). I just wanted you to know I am watching. God bless, and Merry Christmas, Ps, I hope you still have the same PO box. Always, your Uncle Martin

Chris, Amanda thank you so much for the shout out it meant so much. Mom was so surprised, it put a smile on her face and she loved it 😁

[@co-hostamanda3240]

Aww yay!! So happy to hear that!

[@provostparkpass]

So so so happy!!! HI!!!!

[@megandmickey]

Another amazing video! Thank you for putting so much effort into your channel! My friend actually met you both at the park and she told me how sweet you both were. Hopefully will run into you guys one day! And Hatbox ghost :)

[@Riverwhomper]

Chris you should totally do a canoe secret revealed. There's a lot of history in the river itself. There's history in the dry dock. There's also funny cast member stories that operate the canoes. Could do the history of how the rivers of America has changed over the years even with the shape of Galaxy's edge being put in.

[@provostparkpass]

Yes Yes YES!!! love the canoes.

[@dennistavoda1463]

Hatbox Ghost, (with a toast to the Hatchback Hosts😁) Anyway I digress, the Canoes, Rivers of America, it's water recycling & how it's shoreline views changed over the decades. [Chris could wear a coon skin cap, Amanda: Pocahontas garb, ??¿ just thoughts,,,] Oh & Caribbean Mansion, see I could never settle for anything but both, ❣️ 🏹🕵️🎯🦌🛷🎄🎅🏽🤶🏼

[@cindyleavitt8948]

Haunted Mansion always!!! I prefer the original Haunted Manion rather than the Nightmare Before Christmas. Nice to have Amanda on today! Hatbox Ghost!

[@provostparkpass]

[@puddin6796]

Hatbox Ghost Another great video….my wife & I will be at Disneyland in 4 days for our 1st visit. We are staying at the Grand Californian for our anniversary & can’t wait!! Since we’ve been to Disney World #1 Haunted Mansion #2 Pirates

[@provostparkpass]

Happy Anniversary! and thank you!!

[@emjaydee77]

Hatbox Ghost. Thanks for always having fun and informative videos. I feel like a tour guide when I go with my friends to Disneyland. And I just repeat all your awesome info.

[@jennaaldrich1009]

Hat Box Ghost. I agree, Amanda, Chris's knowledge of Disney is top notch! And it's all because of his great personality and the way he respectfully built a relationship with Disney cast members!

[@sharkbaitmuhaha9448]

We love you and all the joy you bring to everyone! I would like to shoutout to my daughters Z and Em.

[@provostparkpass]

Thank you so much be sure to watch the Disney treats video that comes out on December Wednesday December 11 2024 for your shoutout!

[@jdguitarmusic]

Love when Chris & Amanda do videos together! I do enjoy the HatBox Ghost in Haunted Mansion, and have great memories of the classic Haunted Mansion from back when I was 10 to the present day.

[@jenniferkubo3374]

Hatbox Ghost! The gingerbread house is the highlight for me in the Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay.

[@a963852]

Hatbox ghost 👻 Haunted mansion is my favourite ride!! My husband proposed there Friday 13th many years ago so it will always hold a special place in my heart! ❤️

[@MrExtraordinaryEmily]

Wait 26:52 omg is this why there are two dancing monkeys in the ballroom scene during the holiday overlay ?!?!?! I have ALWAYS wondered what they are doing there!

[@KM-nb6jk]

Love love Haunted Mansion. One of my faves from when I was a kid. Hatbox Ghost was such a good addition. You two are the best

[@provostparkpass]

YOU are the best! thank you! we're so happy he's in the mansion.

[@seanrobertson4656]

We love the Haunted Mansion Holiday & Hatbox Ghost & Chris & Amanda! Merry Chris-mas!

[@provostparkpass]

Merry Christmas!

[@JessicaTatone]

Loved meeting you guys a few nights ago! Thank you for all the amazing tips & tricks! Pirates is my fav btw 🥰

[@provostparkpass]

HI! loved meeting you!! thanks so much and one day we'll do a pirates deep dive!

[@JessicaTatone]

@ Yes, You definitely should! I can always count on you guys for the best of the best on anything Disney!

[@anthonydoucette66]

You guys are so amazing by doing these videos. Thanks so much for doing these videos. Oh also Hatbox Ghost. 🎉🎉🎉🎉Woohoo!!!

[@marcmooney9293]

Haunted Mansion is my pick between the 2 epic attractions! Love them both though. THE HATBOX GHOST was a great addition and just has that quintessential Disneyland vibe!! I always felt like we escape out the attic window and that's why the hitchhiking ghosts follow us home!

[@joelupo2112]

This was great! Anything Haunted Mansion for me is a winner. Even better was seeing the two of you doing this video. Great chemistry together!!! Great job again!!!

[@tequila_joe7828]

HI AMANDA!!!!! Good to see you involved more in these vids! You guys are AMAZING. Love you both!! Chris, your messages to us are overwhelmingly positive, warm, and loving. You guys are the BEST!

[@co-hostamanda3240]

💚💙💚💙💚💙

[@beckbudd10]

I love your videos so much!! You guys are so kind and so fun!! Thank you!!HatBox Ghost

[@provostparkpass]

Thank you!! glad you enjoy them!

[@bradrriddle]

Pirates of the Caribbean, definitely. Just as much atmosphere + much larger scale = better overall experience.

[@mwatkins5220]

You guys are great together! Love this video - great content. It’s great having HatBox Ghost here in Orlando now.

[@gabrielaorozco5959]

Pirates is my favorite because everytime I go to Disneyland or Disney World. Pirates take me back to my parents taking me to Disneyland ❤

[@kja1964]

HatBox Ghost! Chris and Amanda, Salutations and Happy Holidays! Hope your Holidays are Merry and Festive! Thank you both for all the great content you bring to your channel! As for our choice between The Haunted Mansion or Pirates of the Caribbean, Pirates all the way! 🏴‍☠️ Much love to you both! Ken and Zaida Allred

[@provostparkpass]

Ken and Zaida, THANK YOU for the love and we agree, Pirates is amazing!

[@provostparkpass]

Thank you so much be sure to watch the Disney treats video that comes out on December Wednesday December 11 2024 for your shoutout!

[@MelodyLane-uw8sq]

Hatbox Ghost!!! Haunted Mansion Holiday is my Favorite

[@anneendicott1382]

HATBOX GHOST. I never thought about there being two parts to the Haunted Mansion - one creepy and dark, the other, more lighthearted. I totally see that now. Thanks, Amanda, for pointing that out and thanks to both of you for always bringing such an enjoyment of life to each video. Love you guys! 💕💕💕

[@TerriR1818]

Hatbox Ghost. Haunted Mansion is really my favorite but of course Pirates runs a very close second. 💖

[@ericiancarr]

Any video with Amanda and the HatBox Ghost rocks!

[@provostparkpass]

[@EricHull]

We got to see the Hatbox Ghost - and Amanda in the same day! now you want me to pick Haunted Mansion or Pirates... oh boy...

[@rachelghoul1835]

It's always a treat when Amanda's in a video! Personally I love the Haunted Mansion more than Pirates, but I'd still love to see that Pirates video too! Let's make it happen! It'd also be great to see one about the Jungle Cruise someday. I was surprised you didn't tell the story about the... Hatbox Ghost.

[@barbarafromnj309]

Can I say Haunted Pirates??? lol. Love when you do these videos. It is appreciated. Before I forget….. HatBox Ghost

[@johnnymeeker]

HotBox ghost is my families favorite character at Disneyland. I grew up in DL. My first time was way back in 1976 when I was 4. My entire family would go multiple times a year. Back then we lived in the SF Bay Area so it was a fairly short drive (8 hrs) lol. Over the years it's meant so much to our family that it has always been the #1 ride at any amusement park. Here in 2024, other than my 2 sons, everyone else has passed on and permanently resides in the Mansion! Thank you Chris for doing videos as its now my only view into the World of Disney!!! Sending much love the middle of nowhere Kansas.

[@kerrizor]

Hi Amanda! Always love it when you join Chris on camera!

[@co-hostamanda3240]

Hi!! Thank you so much!!!!❤😊

[@provostparkpass]

💞💕

[@sfxtd]

The HatBox Ghost is one of those original ideas that was not originally successful, but was eventually properly realized at Disneyland in 2015. I love the original Haunted Mansion and the NBC holiday overlay is also great, but my favorite will always be Pirates of the Caribbean. The scale, immersion, story, effects, ambiance, fun, music, Blue Bayou, animation, and water all combined under Walt Disney's personal guidance, make a unique and wonderful experience that has long stood as the ultimate dark ride.

[@RaechelSykes]

Ooooo Amanda is back to her beautiful hair color again. You look amazing. ❤

[@provostparkpass]

🖤

[@co-hostamanda3240]

Thank you!❤❤

[@2dietetics]

Hat Box Ghost! Chris and Amanda, just wanted you to know that we adore your vlogs! We even bought your pin, and are going to use it as one of our clues on Christmas Day to announce to our boys that we’re taking them to Disneyland for the very first time!

[@andrewiphone]

We love your depth of knowledge !! Hatbox ghost

[@provostparkpass]

Thank you!!

[@disneylandtoday]

The Chuck E Cheese reference had my friend and I rolling, never would have guessed that in a million years, but I love the HatBox Ghost and I look around the corner waiting to see him every time I ride the classic and holiday mansions. Thanks Chris and Amanda!

[@jjjordano62]

PIRATES IS SO MY FAVORITE! Haunted Mansion is the cool side-kick.

[@videoaccount1947]

Thank you, Chris and Amanda, for yet another look at Disney details, including the HatBox Ghost.

[@ShowMeMoFun]

I love that you're both on this video, such great energy. Pirates and Haunted, I can't choose a favorite but Haunted Mansion is slightly in the lead. Was happy when the Hatbox Ghost returned.

[@co-hostamanda3240]

Thank you!!❤❤

[@provostparkpass]

thank you so much! appreciate it, we have fun together!

[@Imawnch]

Hatbox ghost I can't choose one! Pirates and Haunted mansion are equally my favorite. 👻🏴‍☠

[@davebuntemeyer4669]

Original Pirates of the Caribbean and then the original haunted mansion, but having the hatbox ghost back is great

[@rachelleturpin2840]

Pirates!

[@NH_NORCAL]

Great team and wonderful info on all your videos. Thank you!! Hatbox Ghost

[@Opp4.]

Hatbox Ghost! Ooh Muppet Christmas Carol overlay would be AMAZING!

[@TomServo1138]

HatBox Ghost Long time watcher, first time commenter :) I love your channel. Thanks for all you do!

[@co-hostamanda3240]

Thanks for being here!😊

[@ryan7032]

The Haunted Mansion has one of the most convoluted histories of any ride ever with how they kept switching directions for everything yet it's still considered the best because they put their very best into everything without compromise (other than the ghosts being illusions) The ride went from one walkthrough to two identical walkthroughs. Then had a couple versions including the Museum of the Weird with one of them being a restaurant. Then when it became a ride they couldn't decide wether it should be one giant moving platform or a boat ride. Even after they made the Doombuggies they had plans for a separate attraction in the space the extended queue is now! Don't even get me started on the specific characters like the hatbox ghost !!!😉

[@tpalsson]

Love that the Disney Imagineer knows who you are! They should do a special effects with you as the Hotbox Ghost Chris!

[@jray831]

Hey guys. Love the history of The Haunted Mansion at Disneyland. Amanda, great dress. The phrase that pays is…..Hatbox Ghost

[@vrodtrippin]

Hatbox Ghost I can never decide between Pirates or Haunted Mansion as my favorite at DL.During the holidays it is HM, but the rest of the time it's a flip of the coin. The 1st time riding HM as a kid the hallway with the noisy doors gave me goosebumps. I loved watching horror films as a child when my mom was asleep. That hallway brought back the same feeling. Then it was a party in the cemetery. Thanks for your fun video.

[@bonharris9191]

Hatbox ghost I love your videos! So much information in your videos that I never knew! Thank you for everything! Happy Holidays!

[@Pilot801]

Hatbox Ghost Man, you guys are just so fun to watch, especially together! I love your videos, and I love getting to interact with you each year at FanX in SLC. Keep up the good work!

[@grimrides]

HatBox Ghost - thank you so much for your content, I always look forward to seeing new videos! Happy Holidays!

[@nipperstyx]

I was excited to see the HatBox Ghost from watching Chris. The history adds to the fun of being in the parks. Thanks for making a great time even better.

[@dankohlmeier6081]

The hatbox ghost is one of my favorite things at the Haunted Mansion. Another great video!

[@natgoofy96]

So fun to have you both doing these. Thank you...... HatBox Ghost

[@lisagrigsby2894]

Hello, Chris and Amanda! My favorite ride is the original Haunted Mansion.

[@Rob-.]

Chris and Amanda, thank you for sharing your passion. I love all the Disney facts. My Great Uncle worked for Disneyland, from construction to his retirement. So I have not only a special connection, but started hearing facts from when I was very young. You continue filling me with more facts, thank you. HatBox Ghost

[@toniehrlich4591]

I had major surgery and can’t go anywhere. Your videos have helped me through horrible pain and sleeplessness nights. I have a 17 hour surgery in February. I know I will have your videos to get me through it. Haunted mansion this year really looks like they added lots of new things

[@jamescrawfordsr.1715]

Just like the HATBOX GHOST I am loosing head over your video. Thank you Park Pass for the fun and optimism you bring to us.

[@craiglaw7578]

I loved your video’s and your passion for Disneyland! Whenever we go into the Haunted Mansion… we look for the Hatbox Ghost. You bring Disneyland alive for us; we love you!

[@michaelsullivan3581]

The Hat Box Ghost is one of my favs. I also love Zero. Great video!

[@nicolejohnson4896]

Haunted Mansion was always my favorite growing up, and still is. Thanks for all the love you give it! And, I definitely love that "HATBOX GHOST!" I love the NBC overlay, and couldn't see it being Christmas Carol (though Muppets Christmas Carol is our fave Christmas movie, hands down).

[@aaronsteele7585]

Thank you Chris and Amanda for sharing the history and fun facts! I too love the HatBox Ghost! I do have to say that the Pirates of the Carribean has been and always will be my favorite ride! 40 years later and I will never change my mind.

MoOar Amanda! HatBox Ghost cus why not?

[@RenDisKenn]

The Haunted Mansion is my absolute favorite Ride!!! I was 7 when it opened and was lucky enough to ride the first week it opened. Can’t say if I remember the “ Hatbox Ghost “ or not. But what I do remember is that the jumping ghosts in the grave yard were terrifying. 😮 Thank you for all of your work and dedication to the secrets of Disneyland.

[@loosebacontrails666]

Pirates is my favorite!! hell yeaaah you guys are so awesome! Thank you for the great videos as always!! Cheers and happy holidays !! Hatbox Ghost! 😎🎁🎁🎂🎂❤️💙

Haunted Mansion since i was 4! I love Rolly Crumps art and contributions to this ride and it has such a special place in my soul. Loved the Muppet Haunted Mansion and wish they would take over the mansion! Hatbox Ghost!

I’ve only been to Disneyland twice and never been on the Haunted Mansion. I need to check out the Hatbox Ghost. Also, Amanda is awesome to see on the videos.

HAT BOX GHOST :-) Chris and Amanda thank you so much for all you do. Amanda my wife, my kids and I met you and miles a few months ago when you were sitting outside of Indie! You took a few pics with my fam and I and it meant the world to us! We normally watch your videos on tv as we as a fam are eating dinner at the dinner table! Sending all our best wishes to you and your family! Merry Christmas from Mikie and the Santos Family!

[@rosielou14]

HATBOX GHOST!!! We love the holiday overlay. My 4 year old calls it Jacks House! 😂

[@charlesgiddens8687]

What a cool video. Definitely liked when you compared all the different Haunted Mansions” from all the Disney parks. I have never heard of the theory that you are falling and become the 1000 ghost just after you pass the Hatbox Ghost. It’s certainly an interesting take on why the doom buggy turns around as you descend into the graveyard. Happy Holidays and have a Happy New Year to you and your family!
