Call in the spirits… to Disney Springs! A new Haunted Mansion-inspired portrait studio opportunity is available now from Disney PhotoPass.
Haunted Mansion Portrait Studio
The portrait studio was first announced on the official Disney PhotoPass and Disney Springs Instagram accounts earlier this week.
Guests can find this spooky photo-op at the Disney PhotoPass Studio in Marketplace at Disney Springs.
This portrait studio allows guests to join some of the Mansion’s happy haunts, the Hitchhiking Ghosts.
Part of the Mansion’s brick fence post with the iconic attraction sign is also part of the set. Guests can also channel their inner groundskeeper and hold a lantern for a photo, as well.
All photos taken at this special portrait studio are included with the purchase of a Memory maker. Currently, a Memory Maker purchased in advance is priced at $169, and $199 during and post-vacation. A one-day Memory Maker is $69.
The Haunted Mansion
The Haunted Mansion has become one of Disney’s most iconic attractions since its opening at Disneyland in 1969 and on opening day at Walt Disney World in 1971. A clone of the Walt Disney World attraction opened at Tokyo Disneyland in 1983, and the ride has additionally served as inspiration for a number of Disney attractions across the globe, including Phantom Manor in Paris and Mystic Manor in Hong Kong.
The atmospheric ride strikes a delicate blend between funny and frightening that has charmed generations. The Disneyland version of the attraction received a major addition in 2015 when the Hatbox Ghost, an original effect removed from the ride due to technical difficulties, was re-added decades later.
The Hatbox Ghost is due to debut at the Magic Kingdom version of the Haunted Mansion in late November as part of its larger refurbishment that provided an updated look for Madame Leota. The Hatbox Ghost will occupy the Endless Hallway in the Walt Disney World mansion.
Disneyland recently announced they would be expanding the grounds of their Haunted Mansion to include a new gift shop and gardens.
The 2023 “Haunted Mansion” movie will make its streaming debut on Disney+ on October 4, 2023.
