What Inspired ‘Haunted Mansion’?
@justinsimien #greenscreen The Haunted Mansion movie came into my life in spring of 2020 and has removed decades of my youth and FINALLY is starting its rollout. I can finally talk about it and share stuff so… what you wanna know / see 👀👀👀
Although some may think that the movie inspired the famous ride at the Disney theme parks, it was actually the other way around, per the official Disney website. “Inspired by the classic theme park attraction, Haunted Mansion is about a woman and her son who enlist a motley crew of so-called spiritual experts to help rid their home of supernatural squatters,” the film’s description reads on the website. The first Haunted Mansion ride was opened at New Orleans Square at Disneyland park in California on Aug. 9, 1969, with the Magic Kingdom location in Florida opening its own two years later. Now, there are a handful of Haunted Mansion rides across Disney’s various parks around the world!
