I have a mission for those of you reading this. I used to have a DVD I watched frequently as a kid- it was a WDW trip planning video from either 2004 or 2005 (I found both videos on Youtube and they were very similar). On the DVD, there was a special menu button which allowed you to view special “trailers” (pretty much short 1-2 min promo videos) for each of the main rides located in the park. For example, there was one for Pirates, Dinosaur, Splash, and more of the main attractions. I especially recall the HM one beginning with the chilling voiceover “This is the story of a house...but not any ordinary house...”
I swear I’m not crazy and these epic promos do exist somewhere. They are part of what got me so interested in the Disney parks as a kid, so if anyone knows what I am talking about, could they share or provide me with a source? Thanks!

I know which one you are talking about...It's the 2003/04 Vacation planning dvd...Unfortunately, I looked high and low to find anyone who had uploaded the Attraction trailer sub section...The only thing coming up is the main video..

Yeah that’s the one. I couldnt find the promos online anywhere either. Hopefully someone can find them on here. I found them to be really cool.

Your not gonna believe it......But, just now...I found it..

THAT’S IT! :) There were so many of these on that dvd. Dinosaur, Kilimanjaro, Splash Mountain, and ToT for sure had them. Mainly all stock footage from theme park promos and other parks (note the Phantom Manor skeleton footage in the video), but the narrations and vibe I get from them are just so nostalgic and cool. I’m gonna keep looking for my dvd and try to upload the rest.

Is this one?
Edit-I'm dumb and didn't watch to the end. It's for Disneyland.
Sort of. A lot similar to the HM video found above. No real advertisement for the park at the end rather than the ride title. Nothing that would be shown typically on television unless it was used for bumpers inbetween the park tv channel on resort property.
