Photo! The Scary Clown Slide in Disney World is 76% Less Nightmare-Inducing Now 🤡

The Keister Coaster (with arguably one of the CREEPIEST clown decorations) at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn is currently under construction and its refurbishment schedule actually got extended to the end of the year.

A Cast Member had told us that the slide’s signature clown had officially left the building and wouldn’t be back, but we hadn’t heard any updates in terms of what would be replacing our scary friend. BUT today we finally got an update and now we know what (and who) will be featured in the Keister Coaster’s new design!

Today, Imagineer Zach Riddley posted a photo on his Instagram (@thezachriddley) showing us the BRAND-NEW design that will be coming at the end of the Keister Coaster in Disney’s BoardWalk featuring…MICKEY MOUSE and his pals! We do see some scary knees and feet poking out from the left side though, and we’re not sure if a rather extreme facial expression from Goofy will follow them, so the nightmares may not be over yet!

One strange thing we noticed is that, in the photo itself, in the red design of the slide next to Mickey, the name of the slide is spelled “Kiester Coaster” when it has typically been spelled “Keister Coaster” (and is actually spelled that way in Riddley’s post and Disney’s website right now).

Riddley shared that the Disney World and Imagineering teams are almost done with the design. The photo shows the teams installing the graphic, and he said that it’s now Mickey and his friends who are “clowning” around as they splash down into the pool!

Will the resort’s signature clown get a small shout-out in this graphic? What other friends will be featured? We’re not sure (although that looks like Minnie’s flower in a corner of the pic) but we can’t wait to see the full design once it’s finished!

We’ll continue to be on the lookout for more updates about this slide and bring you all the latest.
