Disney4me Posted August 18 Report Share Posted August 18 ‘Tis the season of all things Haunted Mansion, although we might argue that Haunted Mansion should be popular year-round. Haunted Mansion in Magic Kingdom But it is the season where we get new Haunted Mansion merchandise and snacks (again, why not ALL year-round, Disney? HUH?). So we wanted to talk about this ride that makes spooky season even spookier (especially during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party). We decided to ask YOU, our DFB readers, about something that people do on this ride that annoys you, and let’s just say YOU ANSWERED. That’s right, we went on Facebook and asked you, “What’s something people do on the Haunted Mansion that drives you CRAZY?” Y’all came up with a LOT of comments. Whew! So here’s what you told us. Taking flash photos Okay, this is one that we hate, too, because it’s against the ride’s rules! The Ghost Host LITERALLY tells you not to take flash photography, after all. Dulcie answered our question, “Take flash photos or text the whole time! Yes, both are distracting. Haunted Mansion Shyan added, “Flash photography/recording with flashlight on.” We were actually surprised at how many of you mentioned this. Flash photos on Haunted Mansion are obviously a real problem on the ride. Stephanie has a solution for those who do it: “Flash pictures, on ANY dark ride. Disney jail immediately .“ Disney World Is Getting 8 New Rides! Talking loudly in the stretching room Okay, we’re just going to say it: the stretching room is part of the ride, and you should NOT talk through it. To quote DFB reader Sean, “Talk so loud in the stretching room I can’t hear the Ghost Host. That’s some iconic dialogue I’m missing!” Maureen sums it up perfectly, “Talk loudly in the stretching room! Just because I’ve been on it 20 times doesn’t mean I don’t want to hear the Ghost Host.” Don’t talk here!!! Nancy added, “TALK in the pre-room and the stretching room. SHUT UP!!!!! I want to hear Paul Frees, not you.” SAME, Nancy, SAME. We’ll also point out that several of you mention people screaming during the pre-show and ride, and yes, that bothers us, too. Older Disney Fans Are Sharing the “Shocking and Annoying” Things Younger Generations Do Reciting the dialogue Along with the talking, it’s also annoying when others are reciting the dialogue. Stacey commented, “Recite the stretching room spiel loudly.” If you can’t help yourself, you can just whisper it or mouth the words. Seriously, people! Julie agreed, “Recite the entire pre show or talk during the whole thing.” Keep your mouth shut, people. This seems to be a HUGE problem in the stretching room — yes, you’ve been on this ride a million times, but there are people in there who may be riding Haunted Mansion for the first time. Rob said it best: “Nobody thinks you’re cool because you memorized the ghost host in the stretching room. No one. We’re all judging you the rest of the day. Everytime we see you.” We Couldn’t Believe Our Eyes When We Saw This Disney Ride Model Pushing and shoving The stretching room is just an annoying place, in general. That’s probably because everyone has to crowd into the room, and once the doors open to join the ride’s queue, people just start pushing and shoving their way through. Like, what’s the hurry? You’re already pretty close to getting in a Doom Buggy, we promise. Angela answered, ” I hate it when people try to push their way through you when the doors open or when they’re practically climbing over your back when getting in the narrow part of the queue.” Yep, it’s the WORST. Yes, it gets crowded in here, but pushing is not necessary Ben-Angela said, “The line…like, dude, it’s a constantly moving ride and we’re all gonna get on within just a few buggies of each other. Don’t push me, DEFINITELY don’t push my kids, and don’t separate my family.” Karen also has a problem with the pushing and shoving: “Push in to the next room. My family always gets separated because someone always pushes through to try to get to the front even though half their family is still way in the back.” Hatbox Ghost says to stop pushing and shoving Susan prefers to wait it out, “Push and shove when it’s time to leave the stretching room. I usually wait until they rush out so I don’t get trampled.” Some other annoyances include standing up inside the Doom Buggy, spreading the ashes of deceased loved ones on the ride (yep, that really happens), and leaving gum on the seat (ew). 8 Disney World Rides That Seriously Need To Make a Comeback So the next time you ride Haunted Mansion, remember that it takes no effort at all to be mindful of other riders.
