Inside the Castle

[CP_alum08]

do we know what EXACTLY is inside Cinderella Castle? I've read multiple articles and it seems like most people just generalize or speculate at best. Obviously there is the suite and obviously there are missiles in the spires but what else? I've read control rooms, security offices, elaborate monitoring systems like what NASA uses...all sorts of things! What do we know FOR SURE?

Back up missiles for sure!!

My serious answer would be the suite and Cinderella's Royal Table restaurant.
My non serious answer would be missiles, Walt's frozen head, and the new NextGen mind control computer systems.

To the left is the basketball court, to the right the bowling alley and straight ahead is the cast member break room.

In all seriousness isn’t it just the suite and the restaurant. I wouldn’t be surprised if their is an office or two.

Suite, restaurant, styrofoam and rebarred concrete. Remember, forced perspective makes things seem bigger than they are. I remember hearing conversations with construction workers who worked on and how silly they thought it was to build a castle out of styrofoam.

To add to the above mentioned (Cinderellas Royal Table and the Suite) there is also the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique and CM dress rooms for the daily shows.
I wish they had a little something like DLR's Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough that way we could get at least a little peek inside the Castles wall confines

See this is what I mean, everyones answers have been different and no one seems to know 100%!

There are the shops at ground level...
The restaurant and it's infrastructure..
The dream suite.. which took over the storage and old switchboard area
Employee only areas to support maintenance and access to the outside of the castle.. including tinkerbell's launch platform

The only area of 'mystery' was the old switchboard and storage areas.. but those have been taken over by the dream suite.

I like to think Mickey Mouse has some kind of office in there. Somewhere to store his paper work, ya know?

There is a small room at the top with very low ceilings.I had to stoop down when entering it. And was met by the Fairy Godmother.She gave me a spot at the window to take some awesome photos of MK. At this point, I heard people talking behind me,and when I turned around,I was confronted by six or seven dwarfs,who kept touching me,as if to see I was real.At this point the door at the far end opened and in walked Snow White,in all her splendour. The dwarfs all bowed their heads,so I done the same..She just smiled at me and spoke softly " Nice to meet you Mr Hatter "..I was speechless ( for once in my life ).Well the rest is history.We had tea and cupcakes ( including peanut butter ) and exchanged happy stories. And we all lived happily ever after.

REALLY Mr Hatter .. you expect us to believe that ..
There is no way you would have had peanut butter

Whoo Hoo! I had a peanut butter toasty this morning and I kinda enjoyed it..I remember trying it as a kid 100 years ago,and if memory serves me right,I didn't like it..It's time for a Haggis revolution for my American buddies.

Getting back to reality...

Aside from guest areas theres communication equipment and infrastructure, lots of steel beams and bars, and the stairs up to Tinks launch pad.

It's not styrofoam, it's fiberglass.

Reality stinks.

 

[aladdin2007]

Are they still using th dreamsuite? You never hear about it anymore, or is that where George K is living now

 

[topher]

I have been through a few of the side doors into the castle and I have yet to see anything other than stairs that take you to the utilidors.
Directly below the castle, one level above the utilidors are the show prep/dressing rooms areas.
What I have seen is both cramped and magical... Perhaps magically cramped.

That will be the paenut butter
