I just watched this Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster video, in it we see how a WildMouse can be widely themed. Ah, we also have a Screen Wall Elevator (similar idea to the one I imagined for the Mickey and The Watercolor Adventure), cool

THAT LOOKS AMAZING!! IT NEEDS TO HAPPEN!! The Villains definitely need more representation in the parks. While I know there have been hopes for a Dark Kingdom 5th gate for the parks, I think the possibility of a villain-themed land is much more realistic. It would be a great way to bring some thrills to the magic kingdom ( which is a good park, but more geared towards younger guests than the other three parks). I think the Mickey's Water Color adventure sounds a lot like Fantasmic: The Ride....which could be very cool! I would love to be able to walk through Maleficent's Castle in the queue for that ride. And a wild maus ride to escape from Cruella De'Vil is inspired. I know many want a Yzma coaster, but I think Cruella DeVil is a far more iconic villain to get such an attraction. (I also think an Emperor's New Groove coaster would better fit Adventureland or a South American expansion of Animal Kingdom).Well, hereās the thing...
A friend of mine, Hilma, āborrowedā this stack of classified files from the WD IMAGINEERING GENERAL QUARTERS.
She knows Iām a fan of theme parks, so she let me have a look on it. What she doesnāt know is that I took some pictures to share with you, my friends
It looks like itās an pretty old proposal for an addition to the Magic Kingdom that has long been demanded by fans. It has a ton of information and some sealed red envelopes (which Iāll show you as soon as I figure out how to open it without a trace).
I hope you like what youāre going to see and I ask you to, please, keep this info to yourself, we do not want Hilma to lose her job at WDC, right?
Sincerelly, Wow

I think the Dr. Facillier Voodoo Lounge sounds like the most interesting attraction, though with him likely playing a big role in the Princess and the Frog retheme of Splash Mountain, I feel that Disney would want to give a different magic-driven villain the spotlight for such a show. I would move the Snuggly Duckling to a Tangled/Corona land, but keep all of the other proposed restaurants in Villains Village. Maybe the Snuggly Duckling could be a transition between Villains village and a potential Fantasy Springs-like land on the northwestern side of the Magic Kingdom (north of Tom Sawyer's Island).
Is Barnaby a reference to the villain from Babes and Toyland? That would be a fun little Easter Egg for older Disney fans. Knowing the Disney company of today, they would probably demand the tea-shop be named after a more modern or famous villain, even if it doesn't thematically make sense.
Glad that you like the idea, @Ghost93 , thank you for your thoughts!
. As it's not an attraction and is in the transition from a fairy tale area (Fall Garden) to the cosmopolitan part (Winter Polis) I believe the IP involved won't make that much differenceā¦ The Queen of Hearts could also serve tea, right? She just needs to enslave the Mad Hatter 
Yes, I think the same way, I believe that a Land of Villains is much more feasible and guarantees the possibility of duplicating to other parks...
Despite the villain theme, Villains Village was designed for the family, there are no strong emotions (maximum BTMRR trill level).
I never thought that way, but I believe "Fantasmic:The Ride" fits like a glove my idea.
Cruella is quite a character, her ride itās like Mr Toadās Wild Ride on steroids
It's the idea I like most (ops, can a father have a favorite child?), but Splash Mountain's overlay will really mess it up - despite the crowd asking for it not to happen in OR I believe it's inevitable.
In fact the restaurant and the dam tunnel was thought of in this area mainly because we already have the Rapunzel tower there and because of the rumors of turning It's A Small World into a Rapunzel ride.
Yes it is! And yes it was thought of as an Easter egg for the elders

Hi Wow, Sorry it took me so long to get back and respond to the invitation to review your work. All in all I find it exceptional. From presentation to artwork and storyboards all of it was cohesive. I love the idea in general as well. Wether it is for one of our contests or for our own imaginative relief projects like this are awesome to see. I love seeing new ideas. Canāt wait for the next one.

Iām a WDW RR fan so I would love to add a another train stop to visit VV. One other note labeling anything with āHellā probably wouldnāt pass Disney review but naming it āHadesā wouldnāt even cause a blink. They would be funny like that. I do really love the two tunnels.
Hi @Skipper2 ! It doesnāt matter the time, Iām glad you stopped by! I love the WDW RR too but I think a little challenging finding a room to add a stop in Villains Village (itās a neat idea though). Maybe behind SPRING DUST with a fancy bridge supporting the transition between the Fantasy and Villainy (pretty much like the ātunnelsā you liked).
Dang! Youāre right about the āHellā wordā¦ The correct was De Vil Manor, I just thought itād be a more dramatic name
Iām managing to āopen the red envelopesā to detail the rides. Hope get this done this year but itās hard finding time to play with this project.
Thank you for your time and thoughts!

Your concept art is on point man! I love the drawings and photoshop jobs. I donāt know how you do it, I canāt even photoshop a mustache onto my sisterās cat.
Thanks, buddy. I work in the Creative field so design tools are not big deal. In fact I wanted to make the presentation slides with real folders and props but I got lazy hahaha.

Although it could be cool, Iām surprised you went with Dukeās restaurant. Because heās not really a villain or even a main character in a film.
Hey @itsy bitsy spider , thanks for stopping by! Iām glad you shared your point of view.
Well, we actually have Dukeās Cafe and Calās Restaurant. Both are there to harmonize with the āNew Orleans styleā ambiance and Dr. Facilierās Voodoo Lounge. It is important to remember that these are the two places that Tiana works doubling the shift. While the places aren't villains per se, I think those places drain all of her energyā¦ Sometimes a workplace that doesn't value you can hurt you as bad as a powerful villain
