A new behind the scenes video just popped up on the Disney Parks channel! It looks like they‘ve redone the load area and the pet cemetery’s landscaping! Welcome back Ms. April December!

That’s a really interesting rundown! This is completely random but I do think you might possibly be missing on Asian male. Isn’t Constance’s third Husband, the Marquis, supposed to be Chinese? In his actual portrait his race is actually pretty ambiguous (Asian? Eastern European?) and they’re...

Okay so I’m getting into this like- super late into the conversation, but like- one argument that I’ve seen brought up here is that something like the headhunters scene isn’t culturally insensitive because it was: A. Not the original intention to be malicious and B. ”Just” part of a theme park...

You’re right on the mark here. It’s really easy to notice these weird or unusual design choices in a still photo but in person? From the ground? Surrounded by people? This reminds me of the time they added that weird off-center window in NOS. I don’t think I’ve ever naturally noticed it without...

“Garde a l'eau!” *Splashing noises*

The horses have hundreds and hundreds of square inches on Mainstreet to roam.

Is anyone aware of what kind of construction is going on back there?

Finally! New pictures! I’ve been anxious to see what it looks like. I’m not the biggest fan of the color scheme on the half timbered sections, but it’s looking pretty good.

I come back to this thread every year. It grounds you in a way that a lot of documentaries can’t. The way the thread evolves as the events unfold is really heart wrenching. Truly a tragic day in history. Now, and forever. Never forget.

Cease! These dark arts have no place here. We dare not speak of the corrupted affairs that have transpired here in the murky past.

Okay, so minor update! Sorry for resurrecting a dead thread (no pun intended). So the Disneyland website just updated the Haunted Mansion photos a little while back. They went from this: To this: Now this might be the much higher contrast (or my terrible eyesight), but does the wrought...

Yeah, I was wondering what was going on with this project. There’s been a distinct lack of updates.

As one of those dweebs, we were really hoping for a more grounded Expansion pack this time around. A lot of rumors went around for hotels and farming. Instead we got Batuu, with Star Wars already being at the bottom of most Simmer’s wishlists.

I absolutely love this. Honestly I think he would have been an amazing fit, What We Do in the Shadows and all that. He’s worked with Disney in the past too.

I just realized that the Lincoln reference is situated directly next to the shooting gallery in the Carnival room...

The Haunted Mansion - Historical Inspiration Part 2 So all in all, the butler’s uniforms can quite uniformly fit into a decade of fashion. However, the situation with the women’s wear is much more complicated, spanning many more years. This outfit is much harder to pin down historically to any...

The Haunted Mansion - Historical Inspiration Part 1 I recently tried to track down the historical inspiration behind what is likely one of the most well known cast member costumes in the Disney parks, the maid and butler uniforms from the Haunted Mansion. The first thing to note about both these...

As someone who has always been interested in fashion both in history and in the Disney parks, I was surprised to see a distinct lack of discussion about them on the forums. I’m hoping to alleviate that with a thread dedicated to cast member uniforms, their designs, and historical inspiration...

What is this? Some kind of personal attack?

I know I’m a little late to the party, but the yellow building is still extremely fake-looking. I’m shocked they still didn’t refurbish it further. It’s like the McMansion interpretation of “French architecture”. The disproportionally large arch on the side of the roof supported by those skinny...
