Haunted Mansion FINALLY Reopens in Disney World — See What’s New!
We were a bit confused this morning when Haunted Mansion was still closed in Disney World’s Magic Kingdom. The popular attraction closed a few days ago for planned work, and it was supposed to be open again today.

Well, we’ve been waiting all day, and the ride has finally reopened! Let’s go see what’s changed.
Haunted Mansion Reopens
Many people thought that this short closure was so that Disney could install the iconic Hatbox Ghost that Disney confirmed would be coming to the ride sometime this year.

We’ll go ahead and get this out of the way — the Hatbox Ghost is NOT yet in the Haunted Mansion. We know, we’re disappointed too!
But, we do have some good news — the mummy animatronic has returned to the graveyard scene at the end of the ride!
This mummy has been missing from the ride for reportedly over a YEAR, so we’re so happy to see that it’s back!
Another new change we noticed is that the bats on the moving walkways at the exit of the ride have been repainted.
They’re a much brighter yellow now! This should definitely help you watch your step more carefully.
We will be sure to be on the lookout for the Hatbox Ghost! Stay tuned for more Disney World news and updates.
