Is it just me, or does Disneyland not feel the same when the Haunted Mansion is closed? The famed attraction is a staple experience in the first-born Disney Park, and any visit where we can’t enjoy its energy seems like a piece of the puzzle is missing. Well, worry no more, friends; the classic attraction is set to reopen its doors on January 18th!
After a significant hiatus in 2024, as construction began on the new exit and retail experience, there has been more downtime than usual on top of the annual post-Christmas closure to remove The Nightmare Before Christmas overlay. With the reopening, a new celebratory sipper will become available from January 14th, featuring everyone’s favorite demonic-looking bride. “Hurry back.” she will call as you walk through the park carrying your new drinkware, constantly being called to return to the only Haunted Mansion we are delighted to enjoy. Well, okay, one of two, if you count Walt Disney World’s version in Magic Kingdom.
Please don’t leave this one very long; I have a feeling this new bride sipper will be very popular amongst all the foolish mortals in the area.
