That place...
The Haunted Mansion I have seen on YouTube videos...
The same Disneyland attraction...
Some in original look...
And most of the time...
The Scary Christmas version...
The one that Jack Skellington took over back in the 2000's...
The Haunted Mansion before Scary Christmas was big.
The place looked like it was built around 17th or 18th century.
The spooky manor was green and beige. The Haunted Mansion has three floors. Probably that's how high it is. And four pillars at the main entrance.
It was actually completed before 1970's. Pitifully, Walt Disney himself passed before finishing the dark ride.
It's really, really, really beautiful.
The scarecrow with a Sandy Claws outfit looks like the Pumpkin King. It's missing the white beard. The black belt and boots. No white trimmings on the suit. From Halloween Town yours truly. Slightly covered in Christmas lights. It lit up for the night.
The white exterior was covered in strange and unusual Xmas decorations. Including Jack-o-lanterns all over.
The scroll of a Christmas equation on top of the manor. It seems that it was the Jack Skellington's handwriting.
The countdown clock hung above the front door of the Haunted Mansion. It's only counting down to Days to Xmas.
Wreaths with a skull each on the outside balconies.
More Jack-o-lanterns all over the manor. There was a coffin-like sled on one edge of the place.
Candelabras above every wreath.
The whole Haunted Mansion was festive for a Scary Christmas.
Evergreen garlands. Black-and-white-striped bows. And etc.
Even the tombstones got decorated too.
I had to see everything. The tombstones. The white carriage. The decorations. A mix between Halloween and Christmas. I take glances about a few seconds or a minute. I was obsessed. I didn't know I was living in a fantasy. The best fantasy so far.
I looked up at the Haunted Mansion. Everything that I'm seeing is definitely the Halloween Town material.
The door got opened itself.
That took me a surprise. For a moment.
The bald butler appeared from the main entrance. He was friendly.
"Come this way, miss. Come this way."
I was being expected. I don't know if I was petrified or bone-thrilled than bone-chilled.
The normal people would fear the haunted places. And decided to be a coward and move on and lived like everyone else.
Unlike them, I am one of the strange and unusual people.
I do not believe that the dark attraction and the Pumpkin King's terror would scare me.
I have seen The Nightmare Before Christmas lots of times. I have first saw it since I was little. Nothing will put me in a situation where I screamed for life.
No hesitation for me. I followed him.
I got in the Haunted Mansion.
The Haunted Mansion Holiday excitement is coming soon! Next part is comin' up!
