Haunted Mansion Gift shop not done after all! + Fantasmic News!

[@DrStarlander]

The Madame Leota gift shop still needs some dormer windows, a cupola, and some ivy on the roof -- it's just to too huge to be that unadorned. And the building needs a stone foundation to look grounded to the earth and historic. These are easy, cheap additions that would add immeasurably to the historic, picturesque quality and sense of theming.

[@RaechelSykes]

It needs a bulldozer. I wanted to like it, but I do not.

[@Pab-B]

The Madam Leota Tuff Shed. No matter how much stuff they tack on that thing, it will still look out of place, out of scale, etc. Lipstick on Piglet.

[@CC86CA]

Oink oink

[@Cornberry]

I'm usually not pessimistic, but my issue with Leota's gift shop is the shape of it and how it encroaches on the views of both Mansion and Tiana's. I feel like no matter how good it's decorated, it will be an unwelcome sight.

[@ScanFan_Ed]

Agree. That building is very much an eyesore sitting there.

[@DrStarlander]

@@ScanFan_Ed The photos posted today of the shop interior are fine. I don't have qualms. But it absolutely does not look like it justifies the intrusion of this structure. I'd rather a couple of smaller fortune-teller tents/carts in that spot.

[@randolphwilliams2365]

Agree

[@demonoid7469]

As former Imagineers have stated...that building is a complete and total failure on all levels...It disrupts the size, scale and sightlines of the whole area and takes away from the Mansion proper...Nothing they can do with it will ever justify its intrusion. Another massive failure from the current crop of so called Imagineers...

[@madamerebecca_]

Totally agree

[@kwaidan4968]

Cuz he’s a shill for Disney, he actually defends Rachel Zegler and thinks Snow White is gunna be box office hit… He’s cooked

[@gabedl2834]

Yeah I noticed that also

[@fafolguy]

The Madame Leota shop is Creole Cottage architecture that can be found throughout New Orleans and also in less populated areas around the delta. According to the original press release from when the concept art was shared, the shop is inspired by the old location of Marie Laveau’s House of Voodoo on bourbon street - which had almost the exact same shape. Because it’s brand new the biggest difference between it and the architecture it’s modeled after is that the siding is perfect and the paint is fresh. And it works really well as a transitional structure between the stately mansion and the bayou setting because it is common to both urban and rural areas of Louisiana. It’s fine if you don’t like the aesthetic, but this building reflects the culture and history of the city beyond the rich folks who lived in the Garden District mansions, and they got it exactly right.

[@lcflngn]

Helpful view, and definitely the only positive one I’ve seen. Love to see some photos or something from WDI proving your point.

[@wheelindisney5874]

Good to see the set dressers are finally getting around to Madame Leota's. I'm really surprised Disney would take down construction walls around a building that isn't show ready.

[@DrStarlander]

First, let's hope the outside is still not done because that huge roof needs something on it (dormer windows, cupola, ivy...). And the hanging props are all hanging from cheap zinc-coated Home Depot hardware...someone rush a can of spray paint -- at least -- over to Disney (since period-appropriate hardware is clearly out of the question 😒). And all the white plastic exterior outlets are so ugly and distracting! DO we have to look at these all year long so they can...what?...put up Christmas lights? Anyway, there's lot's to do to bring this up to (former) Disney quality. But, yes, it was a bad move to take down the construction walls before it was done. Just like it was a bad move for WDW to release that terrible POV of Tiana' Bayou Adventure. Self-inflicted wounds.

[@Armanios]

Surprised you didn't mention the new and improved seat cushions they installed on the Big Thunder Mountain trains. Mush more comfortable and less sliding around in your seat.

[@michaelsullivan3581]

Thank you for sharing this! A big and welcomed improvement!

Excellent video today, Fresh Baked! I am so happy that the long Indy film is back!

[@marktatum7075]

I was at DL yesterday, talked to a railroad worker during an (extended) wait at the NOS station, and he told me what I'd suspected: the track from Hungry bear to almost ToonTown station (almost tunnel to tunnel) is relatively new - only 7 years old, from when they rerouted the train to make room for Galaxy's Edge (incl the famous first-time left turn). So that section doesn't need to be done. Only Main Street station through Tiana's Tunnel still needs replacing. Will happen early '25.

[@Brian-12345]

Good. That’s what I suspected…that the section of track around Rivers of America was only a few years old and not in need of being redone.

[@adriannec4188]

26:39 A lot of the new stuff - the hanging bells, bunches of dried herbs/flowers, etc seem more Mama Odie than Madame Leota. Seems to me like the theming is a bit confused…

[@DrStarlander]

What's worse is the props are hanging from brand new zinc-coated eye-bolts and carabiners anyone can get from Home Depot or Ace Hardware rather than using period appropriate (or just weathered/painted) hardware. It's sadly like a high school theater class is constructing this building and they only get to work on it during class on Tuesday's and Thursdays.

[@darleneboice2855]

Thanks for all you share. Appreciate all of your work to supply great content. Hope you and your family have a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

[@MichaelWalchalk-i4z]

I go to Disneyland once a year and 70% of these construction updates I would never even notice but I do appreciate the info and find it fascinating.

[@DrStarlander]

The shop opened yesterday, and while the interior is much better than the exterior, there are some ways to improve it: 1. The purple walls are too flat. A distressed stencil-painted version of the Haunted Mansion wallpaper pattern would bring texture and tie-in to the attraction. 2. There is no focal item tall enough and up-front enough atop the loft to block the view of the HVAC vent (i.e., the green settee is too short). The idea of the doom-buggy inspired chair is fantastic, and a larger version flanked by a side table and "dead" plant, up front, would provide the focal point the loft needs. 3. There is a vast volume overhead the entrance which could feature a hanging planter of "dead" foliage which would add nice texture to the space and bring the nature in. 4. As seen in the concept art, drapery on either side of the entrance door would add intrigue and foreshadowing from outside the building, luring guests in. 5. The casework on either side of the side-door is cartoonish, perhaps this could be improved with a different paint/distressed look. 6. The silver frames around all the mirrors need some distress/patina. 7. Ideally the overall light level is reduced with more spotlighting of specific vignettes and ,merchandise.

[@toshibavoodoo]

Madame Leota's gift shop has fallen far below expectations. 😢 Disney needs to realize that they can't get away with putting a lazy shed next to an iconic attraction.

[@Brian-12345]

True, Pirates should not be on Lightning Lane, but neither should Ariel, and we all know which way that went. I don't believe for a second Disney will honor their word to the "temporary" nature of LL on Pirates. They spent money installing scanners, they gained the control they wanted, and they won't go back.

[@JeremyWomack]

The story behind the Indy ride and why we're on it should always remain. I understand why they took it away, but we were long past shut-down restrictions. This idea of bringing it back for the holidays and removing it again, only to possibly bring it back, is giving McDonald's McRib vibes. It's not a good look if you ask me. Seasonal things make sense because there's a reason they are seasonal, i.e., The Nightmare Before Christmas overlay. This does not make sense.

[@justintime1234]

It blocks Tianas Mountain which is kind of sad.

There is a simple way to fix the gift shop look and proportion. Extend the Mansion estate brick fence around it. It should not be outside the fence.

Everyone approaches the Haunted Mansion from the east and receives the full-on introductory effect of it’s exterior appearance. Only Splash Mountain is obscured on what was already a winding path. I don’t see anyone having a nervous breakdown that the only thing visible from the Adventureland entrance are the bathrooms. How is it that anyone is this wrapped up in every single toothpick of the place? Ever hear of the people that got locked in a bakery overnight? They were hungry and ate every “baked” thing around. The next day . . .they threw up.

[@lazman111]

I find it a little much at times, but people who want to keep track of the park for fans of the park, It’s probably never enough. It’s the same way with other amusement parks from what I’ve seen people just get invested in a place where you can step away from reality. But I always wonder when do these bloggers find themselves wanting to do something different in their lives. Most of the contact creators on KZbin seem to have about a 10 year span and then they realize the money is not bad, but if you were to amortize it out over the hours you really don’t make that much because there is a lot of work that goes into make these posts. But I will say some of his information has been helpful when I’ve been at the park and that is appreciated. But the rest of it’s kind of just…..

[@gridley]

Sure wish the high-tension SCE power lines were buried back when DCA was being planned. I read that similar lines were undergrounded in London before that city's Olympic games in 2012. Tom Sawyer Island at DL to me looks better from its main side (the Fantasmic side) than the island at WDW does. But if they get rid of the MK's RoA, that will be the least of the shortcomings they need to be dealing with. In turn, the store next to DL's Haunted Mansion is a new shortcoming.

[@lindamemo5224]

The inside of Leota’s looks amazing. WDI posted on insta so apparently WDI did have a hand in this barn. Opened today

[@FunAtDisney]

I want to totally debunk the whole “this is built from a kit” - because it wasn’t! Micechat just posted some photos and you can clearly see the ridge beams, framing, etc. are totally different. #1 - Leota’s has a steel frame. The “Armstrong” kit is all wood. #2 - Leota’s had horizontal composite siding (cladding), the Armstrong has vertical wood siding. #3 - The framing of the roof beams on Leota’s go front-to back and on the exterior are clearly for looks - but that feature is not on that Armstrong kit. And finally, this is California and the standards and building codes for earthquakes, fire, etc. Disney in no way could use a “kit” for a commercial structure used by the public.

[@DrStarlander]

Yes, but the fact that you even have to "debunk" this says a lot.

[@FunAtDisney]

@@DrStarlander Yes - I agree!

[@TELarkin61]

Having lived through the whole Mid-century-modern era, Parkside Market just looks like old, outdated buildings that have been torn down. I understand this architecture is new to many, and while some of it is appealing, some just doesn't hold up well. I don't feel regression is progression in this instance.

[@DrStarlander]

I agree. I understand the nostalgia around "Googie" mid-century architecture, but the people who are nostalgic about it (like me) are getting older. They may need to "sell" this aesthetic a bit more with some overt thematic environmental props. For example, Hey Brickey just made a great video about the Viewliner train that ran in Tomorrowland, which was built using a 1954 Oldsmobile 88 engine/dashboard. Disney could park one of those near the Parkside Market to substantiate the era of the architecture and as a nod to Disneyland history.

[@Cheiron19]

The crane at Disney World next to the Big Thunder is not one that gets moved around, unless it's going to a new job site. They would not have erected the base unless they were going to put it to work. It probably can reach across to the other side of Big Thunder and that's why it was placed where it's at.

[@zeroconsequences]

That's a great idea for the Cozy Cone Motel. Those individual cone stations always bottleneck especially at night.

Hopefully they demo espn zone and star wars trading post in the future for the disneyland forward project

[@kentslocum]

Despite my skepticism regarding the planning and foresight of Disney management, I am confident that ESPN Zone and Star Wars Trading Post will eventually be demolished. That is why they haven't bothered to build a more permanent mid-century modern security checkpoint and entrance on that side. The reason they haven't demolished them yet is because that land will be very valuable for the Disneyland Forward project. I imagine that space won't see any significant overhaul until Disney begins construction on whatever replaces that parking lot between the Toy Story/Mickey&Friends parking structures and Downtown Disney.

[@ilovegodzilla]

It’s hard to reconcile the grand plans that Disney announces when there are basic maintenance issues that are ignored for years.

[@WindowtotheMagic]

Yep, that’s why I don’t bother trying to figure it out. Plus, it’s not my job or my responsibility, so I figure I shouldn’t waste my energy on it.

[@Omega_Mart_Employee_K1Z]

Well, they had a really shitty ceo these last 2 years so he didn’t let any kind of basic management get done. So now we have a slightly less shitty ceo replacing him for now until they find a better one, so they’re making sure the park is in good condition before the new ceo comes in

Yes, crane operators can work without seeing the load by relying on signalers or riggers, cameras, monitors, load sensors, and two-way radios.
