BREAKING: The Hatbox Ghost Has Finally Materialized in Magic Kingdom’s Haunted Mansion!
Earlier this year, we learned that the iconic Hatbox Ghost would finally be making his way over to Magic Kingdom.
Although you can already experience the Hatbox Ghost in Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion, the same cannot be said for Magic Kingdom — until now!
Hatbox Ghost Arrives in Magic Kingdom
Back in September, Disney shared that the Hatbox Ghost would be arriving in Magic Kingdom in late November. So when we rode the Haunted Mansion on November 29th and still saw no Hatbox Ghost, we were a little confused.
But finally, today, November 30th, the Hatbox Ghost has officially arrived! We arrived at the Haunted Mansion as soon as Magic Kingdom opened Liberty Square.
Nothing looked different so we weren’t sure what to expect!
BUT HERE HE IS!!

We were definitely screaming internally (with excitement).
Reminder — please do not take pictures with flash on dark rides like the Haunted Mansion! We took these photos without flash and lightened the exposure a bit so you could see him better.
This is the Hatbox Ghost with his head…
…and here’s his head in his hatbox!
In Magic Kingdom’s Haunted Mansion, the Hatbox Ghost appears earlier than his Disneyland counterpart.
You will see him when passing the Endless Hallway.
In anticipation of his arrival, guests who have experienced the attraction in recent months may have noticed a large black curtain in this location as the installation of the Hatbox was underway.
But now, the Hatbox Ghost can officially call Magic Kingdom home.
