Haunted Mansion Refurb

[JustInTime]

Color Changing LEDs are the worst choice for the Haunted Mansion...that is so-o cheap carny... and seriously, , color changing LED floodlights are so 5 years ago...there should be something more special... They could digitally map the front of the house and projectall kinds of effects....which would be so much more interesting than color changing LED floodlights...ugh

Disagree. What would be projected? The whole point is that the haunting is inside. The outside is supposed to be plain yet slightly mysterious. I prefer the LED's to projections.

But what about the full scene that occurs outside at the graveyard of the mansion?

And? That's already there. I can't change or debate that. However, protection mapping hasn't been done so debating the idea makes sense.

Projections like these at night would look pretty cool. Maybe not as scary(being considerate for the little ones). Hitching Hiking Ghosts/Hat Box Ghost? Maybe spiders?

I'd love projection mapping as long as they kept it simple, i.e. lightning flashes / moonlight through clouds and maybe candles/shadows in the windows.

The Tree Of Life is a great example of projection lighting done right.

There are shadows/things in at least one of the windows of the HM at night. One just needs to know where to look.

It would be nice to see occasional bat projections or fog projections at night across the bldg.

Looks very much like the dark parts of Disneyland Paris' Tower of Terror. I like it looks fresh and good. It's nice to see Disney doing routine maintenance with the Mansion and Tomorrowland like they should.

Yeah, there's this shadow that you see in the window at night, but it doesn't look like anything.

Maybe there adding the camera and screens for photopass/memorymaker

Just pointing out that the haunting aspect is not secluded to the indoors. Outdoors makes just as much sense as indoors. I'd be cool with projections, as long as it's not over abundant. Quick ghost crossings here and there would be fantastic.

Technically it's actually not suppose to. They dropped the ball the first time with that stupid interactive crap they added in outside. The whole idea is the mansion looks omnimous but not completely haunted. Haunts don't start until inside.

But the swinging wake occurs "outside"...

Well thats a verrrryy loose theme considering the queue as you pointed out. There's so many elements outdoors that lend to haunts, that in my eyes it would make sense. Personally I have no issue with the queue.

Yes, but not until after Madame Leota ferries our "sympathetic vibrations" to the ghosts who respond by materializing, which does not happen until *you* are already inside. Bats and fog don't cross this line, but the ghosts aren't supposed to be visible until they are summoned mid-ride.

True, but there are non-physical-apparition haunted things that happen before Leota: portraits, floating candles, moving books, playing piano, knocking doors, sounds...
