Does anyone have the page for the Phineas prop head?

For context, I remember seeing this page a few years back (2-3 years ago,) where it was someone who posted about their Phineas HHG prop head - an original, park used one. It had painted eyes and had a black/grey paintjob. I personally think it was the original '69 one.

They said that they got it off of a cast-member for around 40-60 bucks (can't recall the exact amount,) and were surprised the cast-member accepted that price. I did have a photo of this page saved, but I can't find the photo nor the page anymore.

If anyone knows what I'm talking about, or has any link to it, please let me know - thank you!

The Haunted Mansion 2003 props

I'm wondering if anyone has, or knows someone who has or is selling props/costumes, anything in the movie "The Haunted Mansion," from 2003. The only things I'm not looking for are the Rick Baker zombie costumes/masks/prosthetics. If anyone can help it would be appreciated!!

Anyone notice the Candle Man in the We Call it Imagineering video?

https://x.com/Soundwave3000/status/1777712043740610686

​

Anyone notice him in the video, I think he is bigger than the small one they put in the attic. Maybe it is something they are adding for the Mansion's reopening at Disneyland?

Lost haunted mansion effect?

I read somewhere that when Disney world first opened the music room used to be different and was wondering if there was anyone who knew if this was true or not, apparently instead of seeing the pianist shadow being casted by moonlight we didn’t see him at all, but then lightning would flash outside the window and reveal his shadow on the floor.

Looking for a monster book sold outside Haunted Mansion in the 90s

When I was a kid in the 90s, I picked up a book about all the different kinds of monsters from a wagon cart stand outside the Haunted Mansion. I don’t know if it was official Disney merchandise or not. Shot in the dark, but does anyone know which book I’m talking about?

A rant about HM merch

If you look back to the park merchandise they had back in the 2000s to early 2010s (pre momento mori. Despite having significantly less merchandise the quality was better, they had figures of the characters, shirts with designs from the actual ride, then after momento mori opened they introduced more home decor and other items but still felt like the haunted mansion, but then after the late 2010s the quality has significantly decreased, (aside from the statues and artwork) most of the current merchandise seems to be cutesy fanart slapped on T-shirts and other basic items, other stores like Spirit Halloween have much better stuff that are replicas of things from the ride.

Thought you all might enjoy my latest DND character

Ambrose Ravenswood is a character for my DM’s spooky Victorian era campaign setting. Obviously his outfit is a nod to our lovely Butlers and his power comes from his relation to our Dear Sweet Leota, who he consults as a sort of Warlock Patron.

Insider scoop: What really went down with Florida's Hatbox Ghost

Per Foxx Nolte, former (and extremely knowledgeable) Magic Kingdom cast member who trained on many rides, particularly the Haunted Mansion, for a long, long time. They have published a whole book on just this version of the ride (With more coming on the topic of MK as a park) which you should absolutely check out. And an outstanding blog, which you should as well, all regardless you believe what they said over at MiceChat:

Apparently the announcement of HBG at WDW was kind of a spontaneous choice by Josh D'Amaro and came as news to everybody working at WDI East. Current WDW president Jeff Vahle is apparently really against investing in historic park products and is also the current significant stumbling block to getting anything done with Journey Into Imagination. As a result Vahle apparently earmarked a bare minimum to put HBG in Florida. In order to place HBG on the roof as at DL would require significant structural work due to the weight of the mechanism, as well as the necessity of sliding the figure out of the scene backwards in order to do any work on him (This is why there are doors behind him at DL and a shutter at WDW). This means they had to decide on another place to put him that was already "ready". Apparently pleas to place him in the Attic or Graveyard were ignored. I made a few further suggestions through a friend, but I guess once they decided on the Endless Hallway that was that. All subsequent explanations are either excuses or rationalizations.

So what many had already speculated. The decision came from the top, the budget was limited, and the imagineers did the best they could under the circumstances. Foxx absolutely knows what they're talking about, I have no reason to not believe what is said here.

Mansion Furniture

Hi everyone, I’m thinking of getting a haunted mansion tattoo and I had an idea to get the furniture from the seance room but I can’t find any good quality photos of any of the pieces. I would love if anyone could share any photos they might have, even any other furniture within the mansion. Basically anything that looks ornate and Victorian but is also uniquely mansion:)

Stretching Room Measurements?

Hello everyone,

I'm currently working on a project regarding the stretching portraits from Haunted Mansion Holiday DL and I'm having a lot of difficulty getting accurate measurements of the stretching room to scale the portraits down properly. Out of curiosity, anyone out there know the dimensions of the room and/or have a copy of the blueprints I can reference?
