Top 7 Disney Myths, Urban Legends & Creepy Secrets

[@nikkitucker5697]

Ex cast member here.. the submarines at Disneyland are haunted and I would love to see you cover that if anyone else had the same experience! 🐠

[@beckybratten1520]

Cool! How was it being a cast member?

[@davidhuapaya4450]

Oooooh interesting! I actually am interested to see this story if it is true!

[@yugioht42]

Discovery island was fenced off during early 2020 and the dock was removed. So right now it’s completely isolated and no one can go in. The last real footage was from the 2000s when someone snuck onto the island itself. There is just old falling apart buildings and remnants of work schedules and maybe some knickknacks of the museum side of the island. The weird thing is electricity still goes to the island and music plays. It gives anyone the creeps.

[@sonotswifty]

The last real footage was actually from 2017. A guy named Matt Swonsa uploaded his discovery island video to KZbin. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJKUnpSterOUmqssi=jWXnQy1e69rWshp6

[@MythicalHex]

I think there was footage from an urban explorer in like 2017 or something.

[@cannibalisticrequiem]

@@MythicalHex Likely Matt Sonswa

[@Zombiehawk.]

No someone did sneak on in 2020 which is what the body can footage was from. The person they were looking for was also recording on his end and posted is video on KZbin. That’s why they finally fenced it off.

[@maddiemoiselle9998]

I’m a former Toontown cast member. I’d say Roger Rabbit is much creepier than Mickey’s house and usually when we referred to Timmy, it was something happening at Roger. I once had an incident where I was walking through the ride at the end of the day as part of closing procedures and there was a locked door that was shaking as though someone was trying to get in. I was alone at the time.

[@arelisbatine1829]

oh my god! that’s pretty spooky

[@BedwellShawn]

I was walking back to my car after work one night from pacific wharf and I felt like someone was following me. The next day I had someone else claim that someone was following them as well… after that when I was there we walked back to the car together and not by ourselves

[@CrazyRockstar123456]

If Disney were to ever make a 'true' horror movie, they could easily do one on the numerous abandoned properties in FL.

[@cannibalisticrequiem]

Eh... I mean, technically they could, but I don't think they will because 1) Disney really doesn't do horror movies like that. They kinda had flukes with "The Black Hole" and "Something Wicked This Way Comes", but generally one of the other studios under the Disney umbrella like Touchstone Pictures, would be more likely to do something like that and 2) Disney is likely not going to let anyone - film studio or otherwise just walk around the premises of one of their abandoned properties, let alone shoot a movie there. It would be far too dangerous what with so much crap scattered on the ground and rusted objects that could give you tetanus, sepsis or other similar deadly illnesses from a scrape, cut, wound, etc that's not treated right away. Doing something like that could easily lead to a massive lawsuit aimed at Disney, and Disney does not want to deal with anything like that. Would it be cool? Sure. Would Disney let it happen? Not in a million years! If anything, and I doubt Disney would be willing to pay for any of this, they would build a replica of one of the abandoned properties on a soundstage and shoot there in order to avoid any disasters that could happen from filming on site. But again, that loops back to my point of, Disney doesn't make those kinds of movies so a Touchstone Pictures or New Line Cinema would be the one to do it, and two, they would probably have to get not just the greenlight to make the movie but the funding from Disney to film it, and I don't know if Disney is really willing to give any money to a horror movie production. Their reliable money makers are the parks, Marvel, Star Wars, Disney Princess movies and their Disney-Pixar movies, as well as the merchandise from all those brands. I feel like Disney probably doesn't see horror movies as being profitable to the company. (Do we know they could be, especially if they're good? Obviously yes. But Disney being old school, probably not.)

[@ddcs0s]

Abandoned places especially in Florida would create way to much risk to ever use as filming locations ... typically a production will either build a set or take a place that's been taken care of and make it look abandoned

[@oliviababb4936]

Putting aside the risk of tetanus/exposure to sharp, rusty objects, Disney shut down a waterpark property (which was supplied water by a local source of naturally occurring H2O) when they realized their natural source was tainted, and a kid picked up a brain eating amoeba on their property and *died*. I'd rather step on something sharp and tetanus-ridden, and undergo subsequent treatment as many times as theoretically possible over the course of a year than contract a brain eating amoeba while happily swimming and die from the experience. But maybe that's just me. What do you guys think?

[@laiceevalerio4966]

What??

I work at tower of terror! I’m so happy to know that Disney Fans will finally learn about the B being a 13, most people skip that detail completely!

When I worked at Disneyland, there were stories about Walt Disney's ghost haunting the Golden Horseshoe Saloon at night. I had a closing shift there once, before having heard said stories, and while rearranging the chairs, I kept having an uneasy feeling that there was another presence in the room with me, but I never saw anyone.

[@israeldillard9872]

Hilarious.

[@redfishbluefish5151]

I can definitely believe the stories about people thinking places on Main Street are haunted. I worked CP at Disney World, and I was told never to go down into the kitchens at Tony's by myself. And of course, I had to ONE TIME, and it about scared me half to death. Pots banging, unexplained creaking, and with most of the lights turned off. I grabbed the trash I was supposed to get and got out of there ASAP. I probably just freaked myself out, but still, really creepy.

I have to say, I was fortunate enough to do a backstage tour of tower of terror and my tour guide took off Ceaser's head to show us (the body is bolted down) and then later when it was time for us to ride, both shafts were down! I think because he messed with Ceaser, the ride broke down for our tour.

[@crazyfire9470]

#whoops

[@DruidsAndConnors]

Imagine being on that ride and as it ends you look over to see Caesar without his head, then later going back to your hotel room, only then do you read this comment.

[@jadasimmons8801]

This happened on my tour as well!! It was a couple of months ago. We did end up getting to ride after a bit of a delay

[@faithcaroline7]

You should make more videos like this. I’ve heard lots of Disneyland and World ghost stories, especially about the Golden Horseshoe in Disneyland. Love your content by the way!

[@lenee8959]

To be honest this probably explains why I’m so happy and bubbly but also enjoy a more gothic tone. It was Disney that raised me, after all.

[@iamthesayyadina]

Yet another former Disneyland Cast Member here, (New Orleans/Bear Country Attractions '77-'84.) Can confirm it was a handgun that made the hole in the glass in the Mansion ballroom.

[@notaverygoodhost]

The glass cracked in a web pattern so it was easy for Imagineers to put a spider on the glass rather than replace it. There is a problem though, as my last visit, I noticed that the glass appears to be cracking further than where it originally cracked. Eventually, the glass may shatter

[@TPMvids]

It is! Look at you knowing your TPM videos👍🏻

[@HunterTheHero]

@@TPMvidsI also discovered a connection to the previous video: when they forget to say good morning to Caesar and that the ride breaks down, it’s similar to the story of George, the welder ghost on Pirates.

[@SlipperySoap]

I agree!

[@SlipperySoap]

​@HunterTheHero, I noticed that, too.

[@lenee8959]

I have heard many spooky Disney myths, and I always take them with a grain of salt until I hear collective evidence. And most of the time, with those confirmations, some of the myths, while creepy, aren’t as horrific or dramatic as people say they are.

[@ygmrt]

Watching you talk about Discovery Island is a dream come true! It is one of my favorite abandoned places ever, would love to watch a full video dedicated to it!

[@MsSavagechef]

I would think the Toontown haunted spot would be the Bennie the Cab ride where the little boy fell out of the cab and died. Or perhaps in Tomorrowland, where the young cast member was crushed between the walls in the circular theater. There were a couple of Matterhorn deaths, a Monorail death, the runaway Mine car death, the three People Mover deaths, the stabbing, the parking garage death --have I forgotten any?

[@HunterTheHero]

On my visit to Disneyland yesterday, I asked a cast member in the Emporium if they seen that ghost, and they did. They described it as a young girl.

[@lyndisrobin]

Great video (as per usual)! Honestly, I love these darker videos from you. You should make them more often! The Golden Horseshoe is one of my favorite allegedly haunted. There’s a great video series from a former cast member about it, you should check it out! Also- about the hole in the glass on Haunted Mansion: apparently Disney used to sell B.B. guns in Frontierland by the Shootin’ Gallery and a little kid shot a hole through the glass. But that’s just what I’ve heard.

[@bjsdemon]

The main thing I've heard about the Haunted Mansion one is that someone bought a BB gun over in Frontier Land before getting on the ride. Not quite sure how it actually happened, but I think they also went on to say that one of the illusions spooked them and they fired the gun in reaction. All in all though, using a fake spider to cover up the hole is an ingenious way to fix a problem that would have been a headache, and possibly months downtime, to fix otherwise. In order to replace the glass, they'd have to remove the roof, carefully remove the pane, carefully install the new one and then replace the roof before cleaning the debris from said repair before the ride was fit to reopen. Three months downtime at least

[@chrisdaven4775]

Ik right. Honestly, he’s the best Disney KZbinr that’s unofficial

[@SlipperySoap]

TPMvids, I'm glad that a rubber spider 🕷 came in handy for the haunted mansion ride! But I couldn't help but notice that the myth about the dummy is so similar to the myth about George the welder who died working on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride! I don't think that any of the myths in the video is true, but I think that the story about the hole in the glass is very likely to be true! 😊Keep up the great work!

[@Frankencelery05]

is the story about george true?

[@SlipperySoap]

His death is true, but the rest of the story is what I consider to be a myth!

[@lindsaylala5964]

Hey TPM, I've been a fan of Disney for a long time. I've grown up going to WDW, and when I found your channel I was able to indulge in my Disney obsession. I am trying to start my own channel, and was wondering if you would be willing to give me a few tips as to how and what to film and deal with copyright issues. You do your videos really really well and I wanted to see if you could help me. I do have problems like I can't drive to WDW whenever I want since I'm not old enough to drive, but my family does go pretty often. Hoping you can help... also, the abandoned island is a bit freaky, but still rather fascinating. Thank you for giving me wonderful information to share with friends and family!

[@meowspots]

I work at Carthay Circle in DCA. I have never experienced anything supernatural, but apparently, there's a ghost of a little girl, wearing a white or yellow dress, in our building. Back when DCA was still a parking lot, there was an accident where a shuttle or tram hit a girl and it dragged her body some amount of distance. I think a handful of people have seen her ghost, and one of my coworkers has seen her and talked with her.

According to my mother, her second oldest brother always had good luck with Friday the 13th's while they were growing up! He was actually a pretty lucky person in general - she's recalled stories where he would call in to the local radio station and he'd win large supplies of soda pop for their family of seven kids (which was a real treat for them as they grew up living paycheck to paycheck and scraping by everywhere they could), or how he would often find money on the ground while they were walking somewhere and stuff like that, so 13 was actually a very lucky number for him! I wouldn't say that I've always had the same luck as my uncle did, although I do remember getting lucky with winning a contest or two at school on or near a Friday the 13th every now and then! Plus, my favorite number has always been 13 anyway, so when it brings me a bit of good luck, I'm always grateful!

[@popcornproductions2]

My theory about the park being haunted (BEAR IN MIND I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT GHOSTS) is that there's souls of people who never go to go to Disneyland in life exploring the park. Maybe they call cast members names because they directions?

All the dark rides used to have a bad ending, in Peter Pan you would get shot by Captain Hook at the end and "die", in Snow White the queen would push the boulder on you and you would "die", dark rides got their name from being dark and scary.... all of the original Disney dark rides were designed to reflect that and all had bad endings but were changed as more modern ideologies came into play, Mr Toad's however remains unchanged and still has it's original ending.
