'Haunted Mansion' director brings iconic Disney theme park ride to life with star-studded new film

Haunted Mansion is the last ride that Walt Disney had a hand in developing.

"I had already obsessed over this ride and rode it countless times," he says. "When we did start making the movie though, they toured us through it with the lights on, which is wild. It takes the magic away, but it also reveals that there's so much going on in that ride. You don't even notice because it moves by you so quickly. We got to thoroughly investigate this thing.

With that, Simien created the story of this mansion, its 999 happy haunts, and why "there's always room for one more." "There are a lot of questions that are left unanswered on that ride," he says. "To actually go in like a fanboy ... was really, really fun."Related Topics
