5 SECRETS You Never Noticed At Disneyland Paris

[@Kerberos.Cosplay]

One of my favourite Paris details, is in the walk through attraction in the upper levels of the castle, theres 2 sets of armour, and a statue of a crow, if you take flash photos of them, they reflect back the 3 colours of the fairies!

[@gertsmeekes]

True and they make sleeping noise

[@spengler2258]

So happy to see Disneyland Paris being covered. As someone living in the UK, Paris is the closest park and thus the one I’ve been to the most (I think the first time I went was when I was like 4, and the last time early January 2020). And as much as I like the Magic Kingdom and whatnot in Florida, Paris is still my favourite park and will always hold a special place in my heart.

I’m still sad about the Phantom Manor refurb. Their decision to give Melanie several other past fiancées takes away so much tragedy from the story... and I miss the cackling Phantom in the ballroom window, the rotting corpse of the Phantom at the end, and Skelanie. Oh well

As French speaker who’ve done Phantom Manor so many times since I was kid. The refurbishment was necessary

[@NanneEsqui13]

I think if it was tweaked to have been her father arranging these marriages instead of her dating them it would have made it easier to keep the portraits and also add to why she wanted to run away with the man she chose

[@disneyparksstarwarslover7638]

Yeah I miss old phantom manor too I miss the Skelanie corpse.

[@phantomology13]

Skelanie 😭 The old story was better. But the new visuals are WAY better. The old portraits looked pretty bad, the faces looked uncanny and the anatomy wasn’t great, like in one of them one of Melanie’s hands is visibly 2 times bigger than the other one. Also, the melanie animatronics were so uncanny and outdated. They looked straight out of FNaF

[@Cindacry]

Cool DLP castle fact that noone ever seems to know (even my CM friend when we watched the firework show with her!): The glass window at the very top spire, lowers and drops at the beginning and end of the firework shows to allow the laser star to come out, which is used in the castle-originated lasers within the shows. It's always sneaky coming out at the beginning and barely noticeable, at the end the star stays out for a good few minutes after the show finishes before slowly folding back in, and the window being raised back up, so nobody ever seems to notice it. It's so cool! Another thing: I'm an animation lecturer, and I always tell my students about this, but the art of animation building waiting room is THE best room on property. Apart from having original zoetropes etc etc, it has one of the original multiplane cameras setup in there tucked against a wall, imported from California. It's one of 2 or 3 Disney owned MP cameras still existing! We always so to cry and look at it before being ushered into the next room, we don't care about the attraction as such, we just want to be in that lobby!! I have loads more if you ever want em!

[@coyoteartist]

Just a note, Louis XIV helped popularized topiary, when he hired Andre Le Notre to design the gardens at Versailles. So the box trees actually have a French connection. On an additional for fun note, Louis XV and several of his friends actually dressed as topiary yew trees at the famed Yew Tree Ball in 1745.

One of the greatest tragedies of the current Disney Parks situation. Only things I can think of that feel worse are things like the unused People Mover/Rocket Rod tracks in Disneyland. The difference is, however, that the Space Mountain fix seems a lot more feasible than the Tomorrowland Track fix, which just makes it all the more maddening

[@annsmith9427]

Disneyland Paris is on my bucket list. I love how the haunted "mansion" is recreated in the Disney parks.

[@maxvandalfsen8273]

(Mansion) I had an annual pass for Disneyland Paris before everything closed due to covid. One of my favorite secrets in the park is found in the Thunder Mesa Riverboats. When the park opened it operated with two boats, a sternwheeler named Tom Sawyer and a sidewheeler names Molly Brown. Almost ten years after the park opened, in 2005, Molly Brown had an accident, causing her engines to overheat. She was put out of commission and Tom Sawyer took over her duties for over 6 years while she was put on a dry dock for repairs. During these 6 years, Tom Sawyer was also heavily damaged due to the lake partially freezing over because of Paris' climate. In 2011 Molly Brown was rebuilt from scratch and resumed operations, but Tom Sawyer was beyond repair and was parked along the side of the river, with Disney eventually building a silo around it. To this day (well not technically this day since the park is closed), when riding the riverboat in Paris, you can see the silo on your starboard side, knowing that the old riverboat is still inside, likely never to come out.

[@kefke44]

I think you’re talking about the “Mark Twain”. Also Disney did announce (a year or two ago at D23) they were going to restore it and put it back into service. Fun fact, when the Molly Brown is closed for refurbishments and they move it into the dry dock, they move the Mark Twain out of the dry dock and park it at the boarding platform under a big tarp.

Best castle of all the parks , hands down !

[@LuckyLatias1996]

Apparently the black grave originally was for a character that never made it into the final cut of the ride, thats why there was no inscription on it. The tomb is now associated with Melanie

[@disneyfan8178]

(Mansion) Maybe the black grave was intended for (wait for it!), Jean Laffite!

[@SecretsDisney]

But Mélanie is trapped in the Manor, it cannot be her inside the grave...

[@LuckyLatias1996]

@@SecretsDisney That makes sense, I heard it was Melanie's because it is right next to her parents one. Considering there is no inscription like Henry and Martha to say who it buried there, It could be anyone's. I personally think its for Melanie maybe an empty grave they put there because she wasn't seen for years and they assumed she was dead. Maybe it is a nod to the Beating Heart Bride, we can only theorise.

[@doombuggywa]

The Beating Heart grave made more sense that it was the bride's grave before they changed the story. When you entered the bride's bedroom she was an old woman meaning she had lived her entire life waiting for her groom and died of old age. But now they've kept her a young woman clear up to the bedroom. Oh and I don't know if they still do it but smoke would also come out of the chimney outside.

@@BlairSlavin Euro Disney was a financial disaster, that's why so many projects were cancelled and downscaled. Frank Well's death in 1994 was the final nail in the coffin.

[@BlickThePancake]

as a dlp nut, I think that the lore for phantom manor is that melanie is more of a dickensian Miss Havisham character, I remember earlier promotional materials talking about how she eternally waited for her groom in her wedding dress, I'm not sure if the tomb is hers, but all the recent updates have sort of strayed from the original concept - so it becomes a little bit confusing!

[@GPXBrent]

A small detail I don't see mentioned a lot - on Main Street, if you look to the right when walking into the park, you'll see a building that has the exact same shape as the original Sleeping Beauty Castle. (it's visible in 4:12 in the video)

Here's an interesting story I came up with in regards to the unmarked sarcophagus: Melanie Ravenswood wasn't the only child of Henry and Martha, there was a son named Franklin or Frank as he liked to be called. Frank was the oldest and the Ravenswoods were actually a happy family with Henry actually being caring devoted father. However Frank had a weak heart since birth but still managed to be a healthy ideal weight for his height and bone structure. Frank was also a good brother and would get very angry if anyone was rude to Melanie . One day in the 1850s Frank and Melanie went into to town. Frank was going to have a few drinks in the saloon while Melanie went to pick up a few things in various stores for home. They parted ways and Melanie started across the street. However she soon found herself in the path of on coming stage coach that was speeding. Melanie froze with fear, but Frank rescued her just in time only to die of heart attack as a result. After that Henry changed as he blamed Melanie for Frank's death. Frank was buried in the sarcophagus that Henry had commissioned but left unmarked because of denial.

[@Cece46654]

I like that story... Even though in life he had a weak heart, because of his self sacrifice to save his sister, if you put your hand on his tomb, you can feel his heart beating strongly.

[@___David__]

"As it's known now, Disneyland Paris"...known by Americans and foreigners. Because we Europeans at large STILL call it *EuroDisney* since that's the original AND superior name 😝 You're gonna LOVE Phantom Manor when you visit (perhaps in 2022 for the 30th Anniversary?). However, one correction: Phantom Manor does NOT have an attic scene. Never had. So neither Constance nor the Beating-Heart Bride were ever present there. After the Ball Room you've always gone into Melanie's bedroom. The black tomb is supposed to be Melanie's grave. One detail to look for: If you go ride the Molly Brown around Big Thunder Mountain, when you reach Phantom Manor at the end of the ride, look to the middle window at the front of Phantom Manor, right above the door. Melanie will be there looking at you! 😁 Oh, and we DO have the Evil Queen in Snow White's Scary Adventures opening the curtains at EuroDisney as well ;) Ah. And "Mansion".

The Bandstand exists in DLP owing to the entrance gates. Unlike MK or DL, there's one directly behind it and in line with the castle. The imagineers needed something to obscure the castle from outside the park. They wanted the reveal to happen once you rounded Main St.
