sebastian banguis I’m with you buddy. I still call it Tom Sawyer‘s Island. I’m not into the whole re-branding thing for it.

[@KeepCalmContemplateYourChoices]

@@kmaprod Besides, it would feed into the old theming of Frontier land. Beck then it was themed to legends of the old west. So retheming it, or renaming T9m Sawyer Island to Pirates cove doesn't really do anything except promote the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.

I like Haunted Mansion Holiday, but Disneyland should leave it like this for the spooky season.

[@annarobbins213]

violetgraveyards definitely. Haunted Mansion Holiday is literally a Christmas ride. The fact that they change it for Halloween is just stupid and doesn’t make any sense

[@TherealRNOwwfpooh]

@@annarobbins213 But Nightmare Before Christmas is a Halloween X Christmas film, which is why the overlay spans the fall & winter seasons spotlighting Halloween & Christmas, with Thanksgiving as the afterthought holiday shoved into the middle between the other 2 & Veteran's Day being looked at no different than Memorial Day or Labor Day, in all honesty, to the point that it's even more forgotten than Thanksgiving itself has become.

[@annarobbins213]

@TherealRNO the movie is Halloween and Christmas, sure, but the ride is Christmas only. Have you ever been on it? The whole idea is that it’s the HM on the Christmas that Jack took over. They have a goddamn sign on the front saying 0 days until Christmas for cryin out loud. It’s not a Halloween ride.

The old entry area would become more themed landscape for the mansion to emphasize the sprawl of the estate.

It would have been super amazing if SOMEHOW they found the original Hatbox ghost and placed it in the mansion for it's one day 50th anniversary, but considering how we still don't know where Hatty ran off to, I doubt we'll ever find him. Although I'm wondering if maybe hatty maybe got re-purposed into another animatronic after it's mysterious removal the rough week after opening. Considering it would make a bit of sense. The only problem would be trying to figure out what animatronic resembles hatty form in the attractions from that point in time.

I recently stayed a night at a place that looks like the haunted mansion, and is indeed haunted itself. What spooked me the most was when I was in the staff kitchen and I opened the freezer. Near the back was a human skull. It wasn’t positioned to spook someone, it was actually almost well hidden. It was real for sure, and that’s when I decided to flee. And when I was speed walking down the hall back to the elevator, I heard a door slam behind me. Apparently the place is haunted by a cowboy ghost. People see silhouettes of a man with a wide brim hat, spurs on his boots and a leather jerkin.

I would like instead of Nightmare during Halloween, make the Mansion full of villains with Pat Carroll and the Ghost Host narrating, and have Nightmare characters, but no Christmas.

Why isn't anyone talking about the great singers at around 17 minutes? I mean the song was cool itself when it was there at the beginning but these guys performing it on that balcony/stage thing were great!
