Missing: Hidden Mickey In Haunted Mansion Dining Table

[Xethis]

I read someplace once that in California, a radio station had some sort of contest & the winners got to spend a night in the Haunted Mansion & they turned the stretching room into the sleeping quarters. It'd be cool if they did something like that again in Florida.

Again, I'd give my eyeteeth to have private access to the Haunted Mansion. One of many things on my 'bucket list', lol!

You can get a small taste of it on the Keys tour but nothing real indepth like the CMs get. Out tours start at 7AM way before the park opens so the attraction isn't up and running yet.

Guess I'm just gonna have to work for Disney someday. Wife & I keep joking that when we get older & want to retire that we should move to Florida & both work at the World. I'd have no problem playing the part of a creepy old butler at the Mansion, lol. Or an old & crusty pirate for that fact, ha ha.

This took place last year and a very close friend of mine was the head show designer that created the "bedroom" the family slept in. He did a fantastic job with it.

Lol, not only am I butt-hurt, but I am butt-hurt AND jealous, HA HA HA. Lucky dude!

Any pictures of that even exist?

does anyone know the criticism behind this and why WDI doesn't want the plates arranged in a hidden mickey? seems everyone wants it, so why not keep it..? I also want to say this is the most interesting thread I've read on WDWM in a long time


BTW, I am a CM. How do I go about scheduling one of these backstage tours?

Talk to one of your managers. Ours always took us on team building trips before park opening. That's how I was able to go on a behind the scenes tour of HM.

I know the podcast Inside the Magic did a feature on it when it happened and had some video footage on their website.

Thank you to all the CM's and everyone else who has posted interesting and little known facts about the Haunted Mansion.

I hope this thread continues to grow!

I will third that opinion! Great thread. It will definitely change my experience of HM the next time I ride.

As far as little things I can think of and don't think there's a potential problem with sharing, are people here already aware of the Ghostly Trio?

I was told about the plexiglass by the senior mechanic on the ride. Maybe it's not true. He said they put it there because a guest hit the glass with something and it broke. I do know there is another glass panel in a wooden box behind the fireplace.

 

[Somebody]

Someone please tell me how to post a picture. I have some close-up pics of books and sheet music scattered about the ride.

 

[enoe01]

you have to go to photo bucket and upload ur pics there. Then u will copy the code for the message board and paste it into a reply message on this thread.

I rode just this past Monday, the 23rd and the Plates were back to there "Hidden" Glory. I know, because I pointed them out to my Friend who is out here for vacation.

I too, still need to get on the HUB and schedule a CM tour, sooooo looking forward to it

 

[JustInTime]

I want a CM tour. Anybody willing or have any tips?

 

[harveyt0206]

Awesome thread. I just love our WDW Cast Members who offer those behind the scenes glimpses. More please.....:lol:

Thanks Neverland!!! I knew someone here would have the answer. That is too bad that the picture has gone missing. It is really great that the picture remained there for so long though. I hope it shows up again and earns its rightful place back inside the ride. I think that is a great tribute.

Thanks again

Erik

No worries. The photo is still there.

I'm sure then everyone is aware of the references to Nightmare Before Christmas in certain areas of our HM??

Sad to report I'm not sure if I do. I am however aware of the Jack Skellington Book that's on the floor in the Attic scene

 

[raven]

There's actually 3 other Jack's in that attic scene :animwink:

And a Sally! The NBC book is also on the table in the library.

I did not know about the HM or the Jack Skeletons. My daughter is going to be thrilled when we go down and we hunt for them during the ride. We are starting our drive down tomorrow, but arrive at WDW on Sunday. I can't wait, I will be looking for them Sunday night!!!:sohappy:

BTW, this is the best post!!!
