Welcome, foolish mortals, to the Haunted Mansion. I am your host, your ghost host. Kindly step all the way in please, and make room for everyone.
Haunted Mansion is my absolute favorite attraction at Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. From the graveyard to the stretching room to, of course, the famous ballroom scene — the details and illusions within this attraction are just incredible.
But what if I told you that you can visit the 999 Happy Haunts without even leaving your home?

Before we dive into how to visit this classic attraction virtually , let’s take a dive into the background of The Haunted Mansion.
The Haunted Mansion is a popular attraction located in both Magic Kingdom and Disneyland. The popular dark ride takes guests through a mansion of haunted characters while riding aboard a Doom Buggy. The spirited Haunted Mansion adventure will be guided by the “disembodied voice of the Ghost Host” as he is your private tour guide “through the cadaverous realm of an eerie haunted estate, home to ghosts, ghouls and supernatural surprises.” Beware of hitchhiking ghosts!
