The Portrait You’ve Never Seen
This is one of those spooky things that I love about the Haunted Mansion. The lost portrait. I guarantee that unless you have been on the ride during some sort of extenuating circumstances (such as an evacuation), you have not seen this picture. Yet it is right there, staring back at you with those creepy […]
Atlantis is Waiting
When Christopher Robin backed up that giant dump truck, cackled maniacally, and pulled the lever, he buried Atlantis forever beneath several metric tons of pliable playground flooring. Now youngsters crawl through Winnie the Pooh’s house and clamor over Piglet’s Crypt-o-Wheel of Doom, never realizing that just 20,000 leagues below the surface, guests once explored the […]
Two If By Sea
American History is ripe with heroic tales of patriotism, many of which provide dramatic backdrops to Disney attractions like the Hall of Presidents. Lincoln is well documented.

Ken Annakin’s Jungle Cruise Crate is Actually a Sneaky Swiss Family Robinson Reference

Those wonderful Disney name puns show up on a chalkboard, and there’s that cage with the bent bars, obviously for holding gorillas (or small children). But my favorite detail doesn’t look like a joke at all, and unless you are intimately […]
Lost in Animal Kingdom

I remember we both found this area […]
Haunted Mansion Stretch Room Secrets That Make It Work
How does the Haunted Mansion stretch room work? Here’s a breakdown of 11 hidden factors that bring the whole scene together.
Spook Hill
I love a good roadside attraction, and as it happens, there’s a pretty cool one not too far from Walt Disney World. It’s called Spook Hill, and the idea is that if you park your car on Spook Hill and put it into neutral, your car will roll uphill! You can find these sorts of […]
