A new selection of Haunted Mansion merchandise has arrived at Disneyland Park, including a Madame Leota Loungefly backpack, Hatbox Ghost Spirit Jersey, coffin-shaped mug, and more.
We found all of these items at the Emporium on Main Street, U.S.A.
The Haunted Mansion Coffin Mug – $24.99
This coffee mug is shaped like a coffin, with the titular mansion attraction’s logo on the front.
The other side depicts the murderous bride guests discover in the attic portion of the ride, who perpetually recites her wedding vows with a hatchet in hand.
‘There’s Room for One More’ Hatbox Ghost Glow in the Dark Spirit Jersey – $84.99
This Spirit Jersey glows in the dark and features the famous Hatbox Ghost wandering the graveyard of the mansion, with “There’s Rom for One More” written on the top.
He is accompanied by a mummy and hatchet-wielding bride.
The front is mostly plain, with a “Haunted Mansion” logo included.
Haunted Mansion Handbag – $29.99
This zippered handbag comes with a strap and features the classically dark and striped mansion wallpaper from the stretching elevator room, with the dual-candle holding gargoyles.
Haunted Mansion Crocs – $64.99
These Crocs are black, blue, and magenta, with charms included.
The charms are based on various characters and iconography from the Haunted Mansion, including Madame Leota and the Hitchhiking Ghosts.
‘Welcome Foolish Mortals’ Ear Headband – $34.99
This ear headband is topped with menacing eyes, and is mostly blue and teal. One ear depicts the entrance to the cryptic manor, with “Welcome Foolish Mortals” prominently displayed, while the other ear has artwork of various mansion characters previously seen on the pair of Crocs.
The backs of the ears are plain black, though the eyes peer both directions.
Hatbox Ghost Fan – $14
This fan is retractable, featuring the Hatbox Ghost and various ghoulish imagery surrounding him.
‘Time to Party’ Glow in the Dark Sweater – $59.99
This sweater, black, magenta, and lime-ish teal, depicts the ballroom guests pass by in their “Doom Buggies” during the ride.
The back features no artwork.
“Time to Party” is written in the bottom left, and the sweater itself glows in the dark.
The Haunted Mansion Glow in the Dark Hat – $29.99
This hat also glows in the dark and keeps things fairly simple, with “The Haunted Mansion” logo placed on a black background and mansion wallpaper artwork on the brim.
“Foolish Mortals” is etched on the back…
…along with more menacing eyes watching from below.
Madame Leota Loungefly Backpack – $88
The Madame Leota Loungefly backpack is inspired by the blue-haired psychic medium in a crystal ball who summons the mansion’s spirits. Candles and floating musical instruments abound.
On the back, the text reads “Madame Leota: Knower and Seer of All,” with a Haunted Mansion logo placed in the “O.”
A cat stands on one side.
The other showcases a set of twinkling candles.
On the inside, this backpack’s lining features more artwork, including the ballroom scene from the glow in the dark sweater.
A musical note strap is included.
The Haunted Mansion
This classic Disney attraction can now be found at several Disney Parks around the world. The first iteration opened in 1969 at Disneyland as part of the New Orleans Square expansion. Two years later, it was an opening day attraction in Liberty Square at Magic Kingdom, and in 1983, it was an opening day attraction at Tokyo Disneyland, too.
The Disneyland Paris version of Haunted Mansion is named Phantom Manor, while at Hong Kong Disneyland, Mystic Manor is a completely different attraction that draws some inspiration from the original whilst avoiding references to the afterlife out of respect toward traditional Chinese cultural precedent.
The Hatbox Ghost was in the original Disneyland Haunted Mansion on opening day. Technology had not quite caught up to the ghost’s vanishing and appearing head, however, so the effect only lasted a few weeks before disappearing for nearly 50 years.
This effect returned to the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland in 2015. He appears at the end of the attic scene, after the Bride “greets” guests. The Hatbox Ghost will soon be installed in the Magic Kingdom version of the Haunted Mansion, too.
New ‘Haunted Mansion’ Movie
The upcoming “Haunted Mansion” film follows a doctor (Rosario Dawson) and her 9-year-old son (Chase Dillon) moving into a haunted mansion in New Orleans. Dawson’s character ends up calling in a priest (Owen Wilson) to exorcise the manor. They also get help from a widowed scientist-turned-failed-paranormal expert (LaKeith Stanfield), a French Quarter psychic (Tiffany Haddish), and a historian (Danny DeVito).
Jamie Lee Curtis portrays Madame Leota, and Jared Leto serves as the Hatbox Ghost. Curtis called the film “modern, fresh, old-fashioned, and scary, but not scary like a monster movie. It’s scary, like a Disney ride, and funny. If you go on that ride, there’s a lot of humor as well as the scary, ghost-y stuff.”
Curtis, Wilson, and Stanfield recently worked the Haunted Mansion attraction at Disneyland to promote the film.
During the “Studio Showcase Day 1: Celebrate the Magic of Disney and Pixar” panel at the D23 Expo 2022 in Anaheim, the new “Haunted Mansion” film debuted a trailer to fans. Director Justin Simien took to the stage to speak about the project and detail some of the cameos audiences can expect from Winona Ryder, Dan Levy, Hasan Minhaj, and more.
Walt Disney Studios will present a behind-the-scenes look at “Haunted Mansion” during Midsummer Scream — Halloween & Horror Convention in Long Beach, California, this July.
