I just read on another post that MK Haunted Mansion is coming up on its 40th Anniversary.

When is that and is there a possibility that they will have a celebration like the one they had at Disneyland?

Any Scoops?!? :mickey: :mickey:

I believe you are referring to the opening of the original Haunted Mansion in Disneyland's New Orleans Square on August 9th, 1969. Construction started in 1962. The mansion's exterior was completed in 1963, but the building stood empty for nearly six years while the imagineers debated and disagreed on the themeing and workings of the attraction.

The Walt Disney World version of the Haunted Mansion opened along with the rest of the Magic Kingdom in 1971. I wouldn't expect an anniversary event this year at WDW.

Ya, I wouldn't expect any events and since it was just refurbed I wouldn't expect any new additions any time soon
