BIG changes are on the way for Disney parks.
EPCOT is undergoing a huge transformation, and Disney California Adventure is preparing for the official opening of San Fransokyo Square. Just when we thought we couldn’t get any more news, Disney shared that an expansion is coming to an iconic part of Disneyland Park, too!
Welcome, Foolish Mortals — to an all-new expansion of the Haunted Mansion area at Disneyland Park! Disney has shared that in 2024, new additions “will build on the story and lore of the Haunted Mansion.” So, what does this mean?
Well, there will be an expanded outdoor queue to “immerse guests in enhanced theming…”
…and a new retail shop next to the ride exit.
According to Disney, the expanded queue will tie into the original stories and feature new gardens inspired by Master Gracey, Madame Leota, and the one-eyed cat. There will be a water fountain and gazebo accompanied by statues and landscaping. You’ll even be able to see a new greenhouse!
The new retail shop is located in the mansion’s carriage house which belongs to Madame Leota and will be a standalone shop that Disney is “dying” to tell us more about — just not quite yet.
As if that wasn’t enough, Disney also announced that enhancements are coming to the plaza next to Tiana’s Palace.
Construction on these areas will begin in January 2024, and you know we’ll be keeping an eye out for all the updates. Stay tuned to AllEars for more!
