Located at the Magic Kingdom of Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, as seen from the Liberty Belle Riverboat. The Haunted Mansion is a beautiful structure, which is one of the most popular buildings in Disney World.

As you walk through the creepy doors of the mansion, you feel a chill run down your spine, past the gravestones and into the awaiting chamber. Beware as the sudden darkness envelops you.

Watchful eyes follow your every move. The poor heart-broken and lonely bride. The dancing ghosts and those behind closed doors waiting for you. There are 999 ghosts haunting the mansion.

Actually, there are only a little more than 300 ghosts in the mansion. The only time you are in the haunted mansion is when you are in the elevator room. When you leave this room you go into a large warehouse which is where the ride is. When you’re passing by the poor soul trying to get out of the coffin smell the air because there are fans blowing the scents of flowers toward you.

The doors which someone or some bodies are trying to escape are made of an elastic material and are the most replaced part in the haunted mansion. Years of planning went into this ride. At first it was to be a walk thru but to accommodate the thousands of people who come daily the brains at Disney World decided to make it a ride in your Doombuggie.
