In a recent FreshBaked video David was wondering if they could be trying to get the attraction ready for a July opening for regular HM. This was based on Disney recently moving back the construction walls multiple times.
Since the queue work doesn't really affect the attraction itself I do wonder if they could get far enough along where they could open the attraction itself earlier than expected. I mean it would be a one month opening before switching back to HMH but at least it would be opened.

That’s the same reason I questioned why Mansion had to be down until August from the get go. The ride isn't really effected by this. They just need the queue and exit finished. With that said, what makes him think it’s July? The longer it goes on the more likely that we won’t see classic HM until after the holidays. Not sure what the motivation would be to rush and have classic HM running for only a few weeks.

I believe this is just adjusting the boundaries asap to give Fantasmic! some more viewing room.

His idea is that Disney knows how much its affecting the Park right now to have the entire west side past Pirates down starting May 1st. So they'd want to bring things back online as quick as possible. So even if its a month or so of regular HM its at least opened. And they can continue working on the rest of the extended queue so it'd be ready for the August start of the Halloween season.

Possible, but that is still a month away isn't it, no need to make that adjustment yet.

Isn’t there rumblings that they are also making updates inside?
I thought Dusty had alluded to that.

Maybe, but I wouldn't expect any huge changes. I think someone thought they might make changes to the Hitchhiking Ghosts, but never confirmed.

I had thought someone mentioned the entire graveyard was being dismantled and rebuilt due to age issues.

While that makes sense it doesn’t make all that much sense when you start throwing around July. At the point rushing it just to have it up for a few weeks as classic HM doesn’t make much sense. Especially in July which has been consistently one of the slower times of the year. Not to mention they’ve already been dealing with that strain for 7 months at that point. What’s another few weeks during a slow month? I like the guy and appreciate his consistent content but he has some interesting takes sometimes. I think he just stopped talking about Pandora going in Grizzly Peak like three days ago.

If that is the case it depends on how extensive the work is.
