With its memorable hitchhiking ghosts, stretching portraits, and the unforgettable “Grim Grinning Ghosts” tune, the attraction has become one of the most iconic rides in Disney history. For generations, guests have enjoyed boarding their Doom Buggies and venturing through the mansion’s spooky corridors, encountering all manner of ghoulish delights.
The Haunted Mansion has such a lasting appeal that it continues to be a favorite for many Disney park visitors, proving that its charm—and its spirits—are truly timeless.
Now, guests staying at Walt Disney World Resorts can bring a piece of this beloved attraction into their rooms with the new Hey Disney! Haunted Mansion soundscape.
This exciting feature, accessible through the Hey Disney! voice assistant, allows visitors to immerse themselves in the world of the mansion without ever leaving their resort. By simply saying, “Hey Disney, play the Haunted Mansion soundscape,” the eerie and whimsical sounds of the mansion come to life, filling the room with an experience that’s both familiar and chilling.

The soundscape recreates the atmosphere of the attraction with creaking noises, distant howls, and, of course, the beloved “Grim Grinning Ghosts” melody. This ambient audio transports guests back into the heart of the Haunted Mansion, allowing them to relive the ride’s most memorable moments from the comfort of their hotel room.
It’s a perfect addition for fans who can’t get enough of the mansion’s unique vibe or for those who want to carry the spooky spirit with them even after park hours.
The Hey Disney! service, introduced with the help of Amazon’s Alexa technology, has been available in Disney resort hotel rooms since early 2024. The voice assistant, themed to look like Mickey Mouse, offers guests an array of Disney-themed services, from character wake-up calls to weather updates, trivia games, and room service requests.
The introduction of the Haunted Mansion soundscape is just one of the many ways Disney is continuously expanding the capabilities of this service, ensuring that guests have even more ways to make their stay magical.
In addition to the Haunted Mansion soundscape, Hey Disney! offers other themed soundscapes and experiences, allowing guests to enjoy different aspects of Disney’s parks and stories whenever they wish.
Whether it’s starting the morning with a cheerful greeting from Mickey or unwinding with the ambient sounds of a classic attraction, the service brings a whole new level of interactivity to a Disney vacation.
What makes this even more special is that the Hey Disney! voice assistant isn’t just limited to resort hotel rooms. Disney fans can bring the magic home by using the service on their personal Amazon Echo devices. That means the spooky charm of the Haunted Mansion soundscape can be enjoyed long after the vacation ends, adding a touch of Disney magic to everyday life.
For die-hard Haunted Mansion fans or those who simply love the idea of bringing their favorite attraction into their personal space, this soundscape is a must-try. Disney’s innovation in blending technology with timeless attractions like the Haunted Mansion shows the company’s ongoing commitment to creating immersive, unforgettable experiences for its guests.
So, if you’re staying at a Walt Disney World Resort, make sure to give the Hey Disney! voice assistant a try and let the sounds of the mansion’s 999 happy haunts follow you back to your room. Who knows? You might even be inspired to whisper, “There’s always room for one more.”
