Grim Grinning Ghosts (The Screaming Song)

Grim Grinning Ghosts with the original pop up screams. In the early years of the attraction, the pop ups in the graveyard would scream and leap up in time to each verse of the song.

0:00: Singing Busts 1:00: British couple drinking wine at a table 2:00: Tea Party Ghosts 3:00: Mummy and Old Man 4:00: Opera Singers 5:00: Headless Knight 6:00: Prisoner (gravelly voice) and Executioner (light voice); All this time I thought that this was the Executioner and Headless Knight until a couple of months ago when someone told me. Good job! I wish the Mansion soundtrack from the parks did it like this; instead they combined the Knight and Opera Singers on the same track.

[@sampeacaml9307]

Both versions are good.

[@biddleeewho4181]

Uhhh... Isn't the exocutioner the one with the gravely voice?

[@atsmithson]

@@biddleeewho4181 I think he does have a gravely voice.

[@christinajones7775]

The prisoner has the light voice and the executioner has the deep voice.Sorry to make you mad if you are. But you did good on the whole time stuff. A+

[@fivebearrugs]

@@christinajones7775 The video credits Candy Candido as the little prisoner and Bill Days as the Executioner, which is funny if you think about it: the big, hulking, menacing executioner has a light, gentle voice. 😄

[@alantic1]

the screams makes this song even more cooler!!!!!

[@jimbodeek]

Now, all we need is the Mariner's "la-da" vocals, and then the Graveyard scene should be complete.

[@RedwoodTheElf]

Probably got complaints of kids getting too scared. Now the ghosts pop up, but with no screams.

[@christinajones7775]

You are right Kids were scared but Disney muted the pop up ghosts so kids can be less scared but at Tokyo Disney there still in the attic a SCREAM!!!

[@aemiliacarolphonetube9749]

I wish I got to experience that but I was born on Christmas eve eve eve eve 2004 so I never got it 😭

[@foolishmortalstudios841]

And now in 2023 they don’t even “Pop up” anymore at WDW, they sorta just peek out between each verse.

[@joinmarch76]

5:59 Hi, Candy Candido! Long time no hear!

[@MrJohnffrey87]

That is Candy Candido's voice starting at 5:58 the other voice might be either James MacDonald or Wayne Allwine because he sounds like Mickey Mouse.

[@alexrocks366]

Chief from Peter Pan?!

[@fivebearrugs]

I almost forgot...there's an 8th track: the musicians playing (the only track without the electric guitar)...and I guess a 9th if you combine them all, which we all know sounds really, really cool :)

[@sampeacaml9307]

The one with the xylophone?

[@fivebearrugs]

@@sampeacaml9307 Yes, I believe so.

[@ColeWalker]

Are you going to remake this now that two early 70’s recordings with the actual screams have surfaced?

[@Josh4344]

Grim grinning ghosts come out to socalize!!

[@jimbodeek]

*Pop-up Ghost screams*

[@fivebearrugs]

Interesting...where did you find that out? I never knew that!

[@TheKoolman89]

The fearsome five was once the fearsome four for a while until they added the fifth since the leader bust broke

[@fivebearrugs]

Because it's all the different variations of the song; notice how the song is only a minute long.

[@collinpolivka8419]

FUN FACT: The screaming sound effects from pop up ghosts were used from 1976 to 1983.

[@aemiliacarolphonetube9749]

The scream died but _A Christmas story_ came out

[@ColeWalker]

*1969-late 70’s

[@ComicAuzi]

@fivebearrugs The "Singing Busts" are known as The Phantom Five in every Haunted Mansion except the Phantom Manor which has only four. Shame. Good job though.

[@jimbodeek]

Actually, The Phantom Five are the graveyard band. The Singing Busts are the Mellomen.

[@tylermannor4290]

Disney please bring the screams back

[@captainrexfan911]

The ghost that says start to streak sounds like Mickey Mouse don't you think I mean for years I always that hey whats Mickey doing in this song I find it pretty cool if you think about

[@HyperMotionDX]

[@MrDisneyguy]

why did disney remove the screams from the ride

[@sampeacaml9307]

Yeah, why?

[@jimbodeek]

Maybe they were too scary for kids?

[@christinajones7775]

@Jimbodeek you are right kids got very scared. One man on the ride got scared to death by a pop up ghost scream. And thought it was so SCARY

[@PikadrewTheCreeper]

The headless knight sounds a bit like Achmed.

[@jetraydude]

Somebody should make a video of all of these playing at once.

[@webzter2661]

jetraydude YESSS!!! WE NEED TO TELL PEOPLE THIS. I AGREE WITH YOU.

[@christinajones7775]

It's already a thing?

[@fivebearrugs]

I don't think so...as he actually IS a knight, and has been referred to as such.

[@jetraydude]

It only says "The Sreaming Song". XP

[@ComicAuzi]

@MrWARIOBARTOKPARCOXD Download the soundtrack from the Streching Room and then cut it away from the rest of the track. That simple. :-) Good luck!

[@MrDisneyguy]

@dorahater1 very funny, but reasonable

[@realSanta420]

isn't "Headless Knight's" actually called the Headless Horseman?

[@HimeRoseChibiChan]

Where can I find this version?

[@aemiliacarolphonetube9749]

😱

[@realSanta420]

but the name is "Headless Horseman", sure hes a knight but his name is "Headless Horseman" just like how we are human but we have names too

[@Fire-Wolf-The-Wolgan]

@MrDisneyguy Maybe they thought it would too much for the kids.
