NEWS: A Missing Ghost Is BACK at The Haunted Mansion in Magic Kingdom

Are you ready for a swinging wake?

Haunted Mansion

Yes, this is ANOTHER post about Haunted Mansion because we are OBSESSED with this ride, especially this time of year when we get all the new spooky Haunted Mansion merchandise and snacks in Disney World. We’ll use any excuse to ride this attraction, too, so, yes, we rode it recently to check up on a missing specter, and lo and behold, the happy haunt had returned!

So if you’ve been on the Haunted Mansion recently, you might not have noticed that one of the ghosts from the cemetery scene (where they’re singing “Grim Grinning Ghosts”) has been missing. We call him picnic ghost because he’s sitting at a table ready for a midnight picnic. Well, we have some good news: Picnic Ghost is BACK!

He’s back!

We occasionally see ghosts dematerialize from the Mansion — maybe they have wild vacations in the afterlife planned and just need a break from being a Happy Haunt — seriously, all the singing and shenanigans must be tiring! Usually, though, a ghost goes missing because the effect that creates it needs maintenance or refurbishment of some kind. There are so many of these ghosts, though (nearly 1,000!), that you may not even notice when one goes missing. But we’ve missed Mr. Picnic Ghost, and we’re glad he’s back!

Don’t forget that Disney World’s Haunted Mansion also now has Hatbox Ghost, too, like its West Coast version in Disneyland. There is still some controversy over where Hatbox Ghost lives in Disney World’s Haunted Mansion, but we don’t think he’s going anywhere anytime soon.
