New Ghost Takes Up Residence in Haunted Mansion as Hidden Mickey Shroud Gets a Glow Up

The Hidden Mickey Shroud appears in The Haunted Mansion’s graveyard scene, emerging from a crypt next to the opera singers’ scene. It gets its name from the hidden Mickey visible in its outstretched hand, one of five total in the attraction.

A glowing blue ghostly figure known as the Hidden Mickey Shroud appears in a crypt in the graveyard scene of the Haunted Mansion at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.

The new Hidden Mickey Shroud glows a vibrant blue. A long, downcast face with closed eyes and a pointed nose is faintly visible beneath its hood. Its left arm is held up with the “palm” forming the hidden Mickey silhouette.
