“Haunted Mansion Holiday” is returning to Disneyland Park in 2021 for the overlay’s 20th anniversary. The Haunted Mansion will be taken over by Jack Skellington and other characters from Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas, and as is tradition, will feature an incredible gingerbread house in the Grand Hall.
Tim Wollweber, associate art director for Disney Parks, designed this year’s house, which pays homage to all the previous houses.
