For the first time, we are pleased to bring you a shocking parkeology-exclusive video. This is hard-hitting, explosive material that you won’t find anywhere else, since it was captured by our own Teevtee, who also did the write-up. The video is at the end of the article and it is indeed SHOCKING. It is not […]
Castaway Keys
We have a substitute parkeologist today, but I want you all to behave yourselves. No spitballs or switching seats. Especially since it’s my sister. She’s usually found on her own blog writing clever homages to Jane Austen, but she’s crossed over today because, well, she’s musically inclined and her sharp eyes (ears?) caught this little […]
Life Size Pixie Hollow
Tinkerbell wasn’t always this popular. Sure, she has been kicking off fireworks shows for decades now, but that was just because it was sort of her job, not because little girls were clamoring for more Tink. And while it’s definitely a thrill to see her glide down from the castle’s tallest spire, older Magic Kingdom […]
Beams So Clean You Can Eat Off Them
Okay everyone. I’m here to confirm for you that there is something big happening at WDW. I’m not referring to the press event of last week, which announced the return of the Main Street Electrical Parade. You haven’t missed any new ride planning sessions, or rehearsals for the next major show. And no, we […]
Epcot Flamingos Once Roamed at Mexico Pavilion
Though it is not known for live animal exhibits, Epcot flamingos once hung out on the shore of the Mexico pavilion in World Showcase.
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. Ben Franklin, yes, he’s important. Washington, sure. But perhaps no patriot stands so tall as that immortal giant who carved himself into history with the simple act of […]
Ken Annakin’s Jungle Cruise Crate is Actually a Sneaky Swiss Family Robinson Reference
In this, the second part of our 28-part series entitled “The Crates of the Jungle Cruise,” we discuss the label of another crate that is lying off to the side on the Jungle Cruise exit dock. Actually, there are only two crates of interest (crate #1 was discussed here), so I’m going to have to […]
