Actually, the Father from CoP's name is John Peabody and he's from Middleburg USA. :wave:


Now...let me get these straight :confused: Originally for both DL and MK's HM (even though MK never got it)...the hatbox ghost was on the RIGHT and the bride was on the LEFT. But shortly after DL's HM opened and by the time MK's HM opened...the bride was on the RIGHT. After both HM's have been refurbished, the bride is now once again on the left hand side...now as an axe murdering villian, incidentally her last husband would have also had his head chopped off, and the Hatbox ghost is all about is head being chopped off...

What would be cool is if they bring back the heart beating effect...have the constance figure either with some projection or 3D heart structure beating and pulsing...maybe you could even see the veins running through her body...and thus the new hatbox ghost once again has his head dissapear and reappear everytime her heart beats. :D

I read some where the whole heart beating thing scared the kiddies, so if that's the case I unfortuantely wouldn't get my hopes up!:rolleyes:

Yes but the Bride was where (In DL) the piano playing ghost is now.
Here is the WDW equivalent
About where the suit of armor is standing in WDW is where the original bride was in Disneyland.

The original WDW Bride was on the right from the beginning' obviously. Oh' and here's a pic of the original WDW Bride.

Also I believe WDI tested Connie both with and without the heart and decided she looked better without it and yes that is why the Bride switched sides.

The other big one is that when the WDW Mansion first opened there was a corpse tied in a spiderweb in the area which is now the Endless Staircase which had a screaming sound effect. It was removed pretty early for obvious reasons.

Yea I've heard a lot about this "Spider-man". I would love to see a picture of what this originally looked like. But I don't think there are any anywhere. :(

I'm actually pretty sure that's why they originally removed it. Because it was wayyy to intense for some people. After all, it is a corpse hanging in what is a kid-friendly ride.
