Disney has almost made Ryan Gosling’s Haunted Mansion dreams come true

The famous Haunted Mansion holiday was inspired by Tim Burton The nightmare before christmas He will return in August, as he traditionally does –no November, as reported incorrectly after incorrect dates were posted on the Disneyland website.

The bug briefly got fans excited that the attraction’s Christmas movie overlay would arrive on November 14, which is a later date than usual and much closer to the holiday in the middle of Nightmare before Christmas.

In a statement to io9, Disney Experiences shared: “We look forward to welcoming the Haunted Mansion Holiday back on Halloween on August 22. The incorrect dates posted on the site are being updated this morning.”

For those who have no idea what we’re talking about, for the better part of two decades, the The beloved classic scary attraction He was kidnapped by Jack Skellington as Sandy Claus, bringing the Christmas spirit to the start of the Halloween season. It never made sense because Nightmare before Christmas It’s a Christmas movie. Jack’s Takeover of Christmas takes place immediately after Halloween Leads up To Christmas – and because the Haunted Mansion is a Ghost house.

This means that fans who want to visit the Haunted Mansion in its usual form as part of Disneyland’s Halloween festivities are out of luck. If you want to experience the Haunted Mansion during Halloween, you’ll have to go to the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World in Florida instead.

It got us thinking back to what Disney superfan Ryan Gosling said about “time mode” in 2020. Below you can watch the rant Barbie The actor continued when asked why he wasn’t keen on it Nightmare before ChristmasHaunted Mansion Holiday: “They do it on Halloween, and they bring Christmas into Halloween. This is a terrible idea. Let’s leave Christmas at Christmas.
