You mean Disneyland? Yeah, it's likely to be a similar type refurb.
Plenty of lights-on photos and video floating around. Riding with lights is like riding through a giant erector set. :lol:

I'm guessing it looks pretty dilapidated, huh? Heh, I know that some pictures were posted with the lights on, but I didn't want to look so I didn't ruin it for myself. But yeah, Disneyland's was really bad until they did the full overhaul, and I would LOVE to see WDW's done the same way or similarly. If they did a completely DIFFERENT rendition, I wouldn't mind that, either, but it's just so... "blech" in its state right now.
And as for Haunted Mansion, I'm sure it would definitely be open by Halloween and the party, because I think they want to sort of celebrate a "rebirth" of the Haunted Mansion when Halloween comes around, and it would draw an even BIGGER crowd because people will want to see all the changes. Their goal would probably be August/September time period if they close it for most of the summer.

You have no idea. If the park had been open late on that last night....things would have likely gotten ugly. Like ambulance ugly.

No, it's not. I like what quality to bring to debate instead of actually explaining why shutting it down when it doesn't infringe upon any peak season is stupid.

Official dates of refurb often aren't official until the day the ride is closed. But I would seriously doubt it's down in November. Although I could see being down day-to-day for smaller concerns they didn't fix up before MNSSHP.

I do. I'm obligated not to share them, but I have them for my own, private enjoyment.
Yeah, that's about right.

I'm still waying for why closing it for part of the summer and fall is more stupid than closing it for Easter, Spring Break, New Years, Christmas and Halloween. Or is that opinion just based on not really knowing the way things work?

Ok...here's two.
One of Leota not looking herself, and one of the hallway scene. That should be a good taste.

It's very easy to think that closing a ride during one's vacation is dumb. It should therefore come as no surprise that the person who said it was dumb for the HM to close this summer has a vacation planned for 6/21/07-7/1/07...someone's bitter.

I think it's wrong to close rides during people's vacations. It's also wrong to let rides fall apart.
Man Disney's unreasonable.
Ideally there's a plan to have it open again by October - give or take a week.

Yeah, it makes complete sense. The absolute best time for the Mansion to be closed is from late summer until Halloween. October and September are dead, and the late summer is far friendlier than the Holiday weeks.
