Are you Dying to go to WDW ?

They're expensive as far as funerals go, but once you factor in the unlimited Mickey ice cream bars...

"enjoy a complimentary, unlimited selection of artisan meats and cheeses while you stare at your loved one's cadaver..."

Death, amongst other things, is highly skirted around in modern Disney.

But death happened in Frozen and they make bank on that. They use death in their movies as major turning points in the story lines. Heck, look at the Lion King. If death didn't happen, the entire story would have changed.

As scary as it may seem, death is a part of life and even Disney has accepted it, maybe not in funerals but we have seen ride/show/movie deaths.

On that note, I will never ever ever watch Old Yeller.

As funny as it is, barring a major change in company beliefs, we would never see something like this. There are a small handful of "no-no's" in Disney Parks, and death is one of them.
"Maleficent didn't die in Fantasmic, she was just defeated by the power of dreams"
"They didn't die on the Tower of Terror, they just went to the Twilight Zone"
etc.
Death, amongst other things, is highly skirted around in modern Disney. Same goes for politics (say what you want about the HoP, but it has been kept as apolitical as an attraction about political figures could be), sex, and crime (the real kind).

They do have it represented in the parks, but not much. The zebra in Jungle Cruise comes to mind. They also did have a pre-opening version of Kilimanjaro Safaris where Big Red didn't make it.
