News Walt Disney Imagineering Files New Haunted Mansion Permit for Set Installation

[Bocabear]

Hopefully, they can refresh it and then turn to the Hollywood Tower. Back in the day, we kept the place shimmering but things have fallen since then. It’s sad to see standards drop and guest satisfaction plummet but I simply couldn’t keep everything elevated forever.

It is a shame they never constructed an actual Tip Top Club dining experience... That could have been an amazing thing... Fully fleshed out Art deco ballroom with a separate set of elevators with a separate entrance...
The Space elevator restaurant is OK, but I would prefer to dine at the Hollywood Tower Hotel...
Perpetual night time and a storm passing though every half hour or so... what a thing that could be....
It could also have a Speakeasy cocktail lounge $$$ Just sayin'

AT least you are still there. They decided your sister hotel looked better with ugly paint and an oil rig attached to it.

Maybe Mark Rober is the new set installation?...

Well this indeed may be something more than work "no guest would notice".

I'm hoping it's exterior work to prepare it for the new Cars/Villains layout. They can start by removing the extended queue to prepare for a new Cars and villains walkway going past HM.

Dear Disney: If you want build something that would print money: Haunted Mansion Themed TS and attached Lounge.

I didn’t say guests wouldn’t notice the work. The work itself will be noticeable and impactful. I said most guests won’t notice the changes when it’s complete. That was specifically in reference to the permit for set installation where few if anyone will notice the changes. This is refurbishment of existing facilities, nothing new.

I have struggled with depression for 25 years and have had suicidal ideation many times. I literally barely escaped one attempt. The Ghost Host hanging seen is never in my thoughts while having these problems.

Thank you for sharing your perspective.

I’ve been told again there is exterior work coming. So this might be related to that?

How about this as noticeable to guests: Lengthen/strengthen the landing area as you exit the attic and move the Hatbox Ghost there, comparable to the DL version. This puts him where he should appropriately appear in the ride AFTER the seance scene. We can hope, right?

I was told it wasn’t related to a strength issue.

I was told it wasn’t related to a strength issue.

Which was also stated multiple times in the relevant thread. People just kept ignoring it.

Thank you for sharing your perspective.

You are very welcome. The problem for many people who have suffered from these kinds of feelings is that they don't openly talk about it or feel ashamed of it. Having open conversations about such topics can be very helpful for people who struggle with them.

I have been waiting for this day for nearly fifteen years, I just wish it wasn't because of Cars.

It would be the best possible thing they can do so obviously they won't do it.

It was a finance issue because the idiot who is running the resort right now wouldn't give WDI the money.

Whatever the issue, do work so it can be placed there. How's that?

Suggest it to Jeff Vahle, not that he will listen.

Sadly.
