Haunted Mansion Mistake

[graphite1326]

Huge, HUGE, HUGE!!!! mistake. At the beginning of the ride the narrator says there are 999 ghost with room for one more. HOWEVER! When you exit he says one will follow you home. Well I have ridden it at least 10 times (probably a lot more but using 10 makes the math easy). 999 - 10 = 989 so there at the most only 989 ghost.

Just sayin

They don't stay at your house... they have to go back to work.

Seeing that thousands and thousands of people ride every day, there must be many ghosts joining every hour. Think about it, where else would you rather be in the after life.

 

[DisAl]

It is NOT a mistake. They are making room for when the Skyliner opens.

 

["El Gran Magnifico"]

Yes. But he also says...."There's always room for one more.....any volunteers?"

So simple math would dictate that if there were 1 volunteer for every ghost that followed you home = 999 happy haunts in perpetuity.

You must not have listened to the entire thing.
They will follow you home until you return. Fail on you. You returned and they were back in the mansion.

Yes but still for the two years I had not been there they were with me. So when I am at home it should be at least 998 for everyone else after me.

HMMMM that is a theory only. AND the if this was the case the 999 number must fluctuate. The narration should be changed to "about 999"

 

[The Pho]

There are 999 happy haunts. But who knows how many unhappy ones, those would be the ones to follow you home. The happy ones want to stay.

 

[Raineman]

There's nothing that says the 999 happy haunts are the same 999 that resided when the attraction opened. There are thousands of people around the world passing away every day-I'm sure for every ghost that follows someone home, another one is waiting to move in.

 

[JIMINYCR]

Not too long ago there were posts regarding guests "depositing" family ashes in the parks. So the answer is....Everytime someones remains are left behind, the occupancy rate in HM increases. They need a place to stay, theres an open invitation, theres always room for more.

 

[JohnD]

If we wanted to get really morbid, how many people die every day (apparently 151,600/day)? HM is an exclusive residence. Wouldn't be hard to keep the cap at 999.

ahhh that does make sense

I think they are going to need 3 or 4 more Haunted Mansions for all of the new Ghosts coming from the Skyliner.

They have a queue, so everytime one leaves.. another gets to come in. We complain about the lines for getting in, some of those guys have been waiting for years.

Why have they been waiting so long? Did they miss the deadline?

Sort of -- their Fastpass expired.
