WDW Fact of the Day 4/13

[alpro2]

The menacing dark brick and stone gothic Haunted Mansion is adorned with chess pieces as ornaments atop the parapets on the roof. If you look carefully, you will see that all of the possible shapes of chess pieces are accounted for, except one - the Knight. There are two explanations as to why the Knight was left off of the roof. The first says that it is because it is always "night" inside the Mansion, while the other, and more credible explanation, is that the Knight is inside the Mansion, wearing the suit of Armor. He can be seen after the corridor of doors on the ground floor, near the grandfather clock.
