2021 Haunted Mansion Holiday Gingerbread House at Disneyland
Take a look at the 2021 Haunted Mansion Holiday gingerbread house at Disneyland!
Halloween will be in full swing at Disneyland Resort from Sept. 3 – Oct. 31. A highlight of Halloween at Disneyland is always the makeover of the Haunted Mansion!
Haunted Mansion Holiday will return for its 20th season this year! This merry makeover of the eerie estate is inspired by “Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas,” which celebrates the collision of Halloween and Christmas.
Disneyland is giving us a first look at this year’s gingerbread house, which graces the mansion’s Grand Hall.
Celebrating 20 years of houses
For 2021, the team decided to pay homage to all previous houses in celebration of this beloved tradition’s 20th anniversary. Tim Wollweber, associate art director for Disney Parks, designed this year’s house.
According to Tim, “we went back to the graveyard to dig up all of our ideas from the past 19 years. This year’s Franken-house stitches together favorite elements from the previous 19 houses!”
A piece from each house is represented in this year’s house to create a visually chaotic, yet perfect Dr. Finkelstein-esque mashup!
