Haunted Mansion

Absolutely stunning gloves inspired by the iconic Haunted Mansion. The design is elegant, detailed, and perfectly captures the eerie yet classy spirit of the attraction. The quality is outstanding — the material feels durable and comfortable, with great stitching and a refined finish that makes them look far more premium than typical theme park accessories. They fit beautifully and add a subtle but unmistakable Haunted Mansion touch to any outfit, whether you’re wearing them in the park or as part of a collector’s display. These gloves are a must-have for Haunted Mansion fans and Disney collectors alike — stylish, timeless, and truly magical. 👻✨

The Baseline: For a theme park attraction, a quality experiences must be provided, the attraction must be fun and engaging, an immersive environment must be established, the queue line must be themed, and safety must be a top priority. Queue: The line for this ride moves fast but can be long. About 2 years ago the queue space was redone to include new great photo opportunities while you wait. The ride is continuous feed dark ride but groups must take the haunted elevator room down to enter. Overall this is one of the best queues in the park with a ton of fun themed items throughout the wait. Attraction: This is a classic of a classic Disneyland ride that just binds you to the New Orleans Square portion of the park. It is a dark ride that takes you through a mansion populated by 999 ghosts via your Doom-Buggy. I love this ride and I love this experience. From Halloween season to just past Christmas season you get to experience the “Nightmare Before Christmas” overlay as it takes over the mansion to have added holiday joy throughout the ride as the characters that are normally there are integrated or replaced with The Nightmare Before Christmas characters. Scary Teddy shows up all throughout your Doom buggy journey and locks in the story and experience. It is a great ride to enjoy any time of the year.

The Haunted Mansion in New Orleans Square is one of those classic Disneyland experiences that wraps nostalgia, mystery, and a little dark whimsy all in one place. We used Lightning Lane so our wait was short, but standby was around 30 to 40 minutes the day before Thanksgiving. It is a beloved ride, so long lines are part of the charm. This year’s Nightmare Before Christmas overlay feels magical. The colors, characters, and details look refreshed and alive. It almost feels like stepping into a storybook that flickers between spooky and playful. The only thing that could be smoother is the movement of the Doom Buggies. Some parts feel a bit jerky, but nothing that takes away from the experience. A must ride for anyone who loves classic dark rides and spooky fun that is not actually scary. My three year old would not be brave enough yet, but for older kids and adults, it is a timeless favorite.

Another one of my favorite rides here at Disneyland! I love the Nightmare before Christmas theme they decorate starting in August or September, can’t remember…just in time for Halloween and Christmas! Love seeing all the decor, especially Jack Skellington! A must ride if you’re at Disneyland!

Absolutely stunning with the "Nightmare" overlay for Halloween! The outside adds so many Halloween decorations it's hard to even imagine how they get this done in a relatively short amount of time - and the inside... WOW! From the Ghost Hosts to the opening stretching sequence be prepared to go to another level of Disney Imagineering. Lines, of course, but arrive at the opening rope drop and the wait will be mere minutes. Then go again! Indeed THE premier Halloween experience in a park full of holiday magic this is by far a great ride for all ages.

What an incredible experience! The outside was decorated with Halloween themes like jack-o'-lanterns. Going inside the mansion felt creepy, and the cast members would put everyone in a small room. The room will then start to sink, changing the stained glass themes to Halloween. Once you leave the room, you're in a hallway with Nightmare Before Christmas portraits. Then, getting on the ride, you have a mix of convincing ghosts and Nightmare Before Halloween events. It was truly a sight to see. 100% worth going!

The Haunted Mansion is my 100th review. So I'll be attaching a lot of photos and videos. This is by far my favorite ride. This last trip I went on it 5 times over 2 days. It's not just a ride it's a wave of nostalgic memories from my childhood. I remember being scared and not wanting to look but not being able to help it as we continued through the house and into the graveyard, eventually being haunted in the crypts at the end. Coming here now with my own children, watching my older two get scared the first time and seeing the transformation of scared to laughter in my youngest over the last 3 years has awesome. 10/10 a great, if not the greatest ride at Disneyland.

I was afraid of the Haunted Mansion as a kid but I love it now! It is a really cool dark ride with a lot of cool visuals! I recently went on it during Halloween and seeing it decorated with the Nightmare Before Christmas characters was really cool. This ride is a must if you are at Disneyland. It was broken down for half a day when we were there so that is something to be aware of. It has a lot of moving parts so I wouldn't be surprised if it breaks down often.

We happily went to ride in January and it was still The Nightmare Before Christmas themed. The front has been remodeled, added more space for the wait line. Its just a tad different but still nice. Like a glass menagerie/greenhouse with crystal glass spheres on the lawn and iron work designs. There are a lot of really nice statues as well. As for the ride, it never gets old! I love how they redesign everything for the Holidays to add The Nightmare Before Christmas storyline and characters. From the outside, to the elevator, down to Sally requesting for you to come back. Though I have to admit the paintings that change in the hallways aren't as great as the original Haunted Mansion ones but still nice. Thats only because I like the darker images. But still, its all awesome!

We look forward to the Haunted Mansion Holiday ride and set up every year. It's an amazing showcase of The Nightmare Before Christmas with Jack and Sally, The Headless Horseman and the many different types of Jack O' Lanterns to name a few. We visited on the first Friday of the New Year, 2025. It was a good time for our visit since the park was not congested. We were able to get on the Haunted Mansion 3x during this visit. Our wait times weren't long. The first time was a 20 to 25 minute wait. Then we decided to go again and the wait time was less than 20 minutes. Our third time getting on the ride was around 9:15pm which was a breeze. We also liked the fact that the garden and cemetery were newly renovated with some new pieces and headstones.

This is a must visit on any Disneyland trip. Note you need a reservation to go on this ride now! They are remodeling the grounds, so access is limited. There's no longer a line, they put you into groups and then call you up when your group number is called, which is all done through the Disneyland app. Make sure you snag a reservation as soon as possible, because they fill up immediately and if you're at the end, your chances of making it on the ride before the park closes isn't good. The theme of course is the "Nightmare Before Christmas" merged with the Haunted Mansion, which is unique and tons of fun. This special theme only lasts through January, so if you want to check it out, make sure to visit when Disneyland is all decked out for the holidays!

One of my favourite rides in the park year round but especially during Halloween. The scenery is amazing both inside and outside the ride and it never fails to amaze us. They pump in gingerbread smells as you pass the dancing ghosts in the dining room and it's just so nostalgic. The only negative aspect of this ride is that it regularly stops when I'm on it. I'm not sure I've ever been on a smooth ride and I've done it a lot!

Virtual Queue 222 Got it this morning at 9:30 after getting my reservation. Same day reservation!!! Lets do this.

I was so excited to really get a spooky adventure. It was closed down for a while. The last two times we came to Disneyland we couldn't ride it. Was excited to get the spooky haunted mansion in October. I don't know why I didn't think about it nightmare before Christmas is Disney, so they made it Christmas Halloween. I was not a big fan. I really just want to enjoy one season at a time. I don't like it when they blend together. My favorite part was the wheelchair Accessibility makes you go up the elevator and see the ride going reverse it's really cool.

My favorite ride at Disneyland gets transformed for Halloween and Christmas every year. The theme is based on "Nightmare Before Christmas," and the holiday version of this ride is even more magical, as Disney does. It's so popular that you need reservations to ride it; get in the virtual queue via the Disneyland app. It's not guaranteed that there will be room for you, so check out the info on Disneyland 's site regarding how to do this before you visit the park. Happy Halloweenie!

First time riding this version of the Haunted Mansion. I love everything about the original version. The Nightmare Before Christmas ugh takes over the entire ride!!! I'm just not a fan of that movie at all. Never have been. I wish I was at Disneyland when it was the original. That's all I can say about this ride...

I personally like the original. BUT...it's still fun. Seeing Jack and Sally and all other Nightmare Before Christmas characters is fun and the movie songs are fun. Pretty fun they do this yearly. Big smiles.

The time of the year when everything is dressed up for the occasion. The haunted mansion is not an exception as it's adorned with jack-o-lanterns and Halloween-style Christmas decorations in the theme of Nightmare Before Christmas. The foyer is decorated with skull wreaths and when you get onto the Black Christmas Sleighs, you'll see Vampire Teddy, Zero, Oogie Boogie, Jack Skeleton and Sally along the way. The pile of bones, creepy dogs, and dancing ghosts are still there but you'll see pumpkins, wreaths, garlands, and funeral flowers added to the holiday theme. There's also a nutcracker, gingerbread house, and a dead Christmas tree. What other things did you see added in the mansion during the holiday season?

I love that the Haunted Mansion ride gets a temporary face-lift for a few months out of the year. Both the temporary Haunted Mansion Holiday and the regular Haunted Mansion are equally spook-tacular. Haunted Mansion Holiday brings The Nightmare Before Christmas to life. Jack Skellington and his friends take over the Haunted Mansion September through December. The ride isn't just a few Nightmare Before Christmas items thrown about. This is a full re-imagining of the ride. Everything from the portraits in the gallery to the graveyard is immerse riders in the world of The Nightmare Before Christmas.

What's better than the Haunted Mansion? Haunted Mansion HOLIDAY! Forreal, I love Haunted Mansion. It's one of the very few must-dos everytime I visit Disneyland. But when it's decked out for Halloween and the Holidays? OH EM GEE, my excitement gets even more amped up. As a Nightmare Before Christmas fan, I'm into the makeover during the Holidays. Jack Skellington welcomes you to his decorated version and you'll find NBC touches throughout the ride. Sally, Zero, the Mayor, Shock, Lock & Barrel and even that big ol' Ooogie Boogie can be seen throughout the ride. One of my favorite bits is Sandy Claws himself outside the mansion surrounded by pumpkins to make you feel like you're in Halloweentown. Photo ops galore outside! There are some really cute twists and changes inside that I don't want to spoil for you! But don't miss this attraction! Pro-Tip: This is a HOT commodity when the overlay is up, so def use fastpass/Genie/whatever new terminology they are using to skip the line lol! Season's Screamings!

It's Disney magic when they take an already classic and fun ride and level up it. They did a great job with this one incorporating Nightmare Before Christmas into the Haunted Mansion. That way little kids and adults don't find it as frightening. It's adding a cute aspect to it. Jack seems jolly handing out presents. I would love to see more of Zero, but all your favorite characters pop up at one point or another. They keep adding more decorations as the years pass to really revamp the ride so it covers up the OG Haunted Mansion ride. For instance, years ago, I don't remember Oogie Boogie at the end with his wheel. I remember they just used the hitchhiking ghosts. Now that have Oogie and his wheel of crazy gifts. It was a really fun night, especially at night.

I love everything about this version o r the haunted mansion! September through January ish I get to experience the sights and smells of nightmare before Xmas!! I always hope for my doom buggy to slow down in the dining room since there is so much to see and smell!!! As much as I like it... I'm glad it's not year round because then I wouldn't get to look forward to this fabulous transformation Looking forward to riding it tomorrow!!!

The never ending debate... which is better? The OG or The Nightmare Before Christmas? I do love seeing this arrive in September for my birthday, and also look forward to the original returning in January. Be sure to stop by during the holiday season to check it out! Happy Haunting!

This is a MUST-RIDE during the holiday season! Between September through December, Jack Skellington and Halloween Town come to take over the Haunted Mansion. I absolutely adore the classic Haunted Mansion during the rest of the year, and the incorporation of Nightmare Before Christmas is absolutely superb. The biggest drawback is that if you don't have a Fastpass, the lines take forever. I went on this for a total of four times during a 2-day trip in Disneyland. But the fourth time we went was after we had gone all the other rides we wanted to go on, and now we were just revisiting any ones that we really enjoyed. My poor boyfriend was dying in line, but he suffered through it because he loves me, bless him. The ride itself is absolutely MAGICAL, full of Halloween and Christmas magic! All the details are superb and astounding, and there's' always something new to catch in each room, like Zero's pile of bones, the room of floating cards with Madame Leota, Lock Shock and Barrel's cake-cutting guillotine, the snow-covered graveyard with all the pumpkin head ghosts and angels, the room full of presents, and Oogie Boogie spinning his wheel and wearing a Santa Clause hat and beard. The perfect seasonal ride!

I generally don't like riding the haunted mansion ride unless it's the holiday makeover version --then count me in.If you think the regular version is immersive just watch what Disney does with this. There are sights and scenes outside of the ride. Inside the changes begin in your elevator ride. IYKYK. There is even a twist on your hitch hiker and look out for Sally watching Jack in the grave yard. I did not miss the rambling lady in the glass .Too bad this isn't up year round.

Get rid of nightmare before Christmas, it was horrendous to sit through. Too much taken out.

I always look forward to when they put in The Nightmare Before Christmas overlay for this ride. The lines for the regular Haunted Mansion is hardly ever a long wait. However when they make the change for Halloween and Christmas, the lines can get really long. Even if you can't remember much of the movie, all of the changes and especially the soundtrack is an improvement to the original ride. You can enjoy this version of the Haunted Mansion through the end of January.

It's that time of year when Disneyland places a spooky Nightmare Before Christmas overlay over the iconic Haunted Mansion. Starting in September, the Nightmare Before Christmas takes over the Haunted Mansion through the Christmas Holiday season. Gone are the Bride and her dearly departed husbands, in are Jack, Sally, and Zero. Oogie Boogie joins them too inside the confines of the mansion. Did you know that the gingerbread house inside the dining room is REAL? The smells are not piped in but come from actual baked gingerbread & icing that is painstakingly built over the course of a few weeks inside the attraction. The overlay highlights the best of Halloween and Christmas in one attraction. Do you love both holidays? Now you don't have to choose. Just sit back and enjoy.

By far, one of the best attractions I have ever been on. It is actually superior to the WDW regular HM version. Being a big fan of The Nightmare Before Christmas, this was right up my alley. So many eye-catching scenes and the overlay is perfect and perfectly placed. It is bright and exciting with a new aspect around every corner. I actually became 12 years old again while I was riding it. Well done and thank you DL.

The best Disney holiday ride! I always have to ride this whenever I'm in the parks during the holiday season. Perfect for all Nightmare Before Christmas fans, just anticipate a long wait if you don't have Genie+.

The renovated version of the Original Haunted Mansion for the Halloween and Christmas season at Disneyland park. It's themed after the Nightmare Before Christmas everything is transformed to the characters such as Jack Skeleton and Sandy etc. I do love this version of it but also love the original as well. This is a must see if you have a chance to go.

Nightmare Before Christmas. First time I saw the movie, I wanted to walk out of the theater. I hated that they tortured Santa and I was going to have NO part of it. I refused to like anything about it from that point on. But everyone loved it, could it really be that awful? Finally years later I watched it again, really watched it (although remaining true to my original hatred for Santa torture) and fell completely in love with everything about its story. Jack is adorable, Sally is amazing, even the awful kids are endearing. I admit it now, I'm in love with this movie, 100% completely! (well, minus the couple minutes of torture.... I just close my eyes) Anywhoooooo........ Having one of my favorite Disneyland rides transformed into one of my all time favorite movie themes is ridiculously Halloween perfection for me! I will ride this over and over and over, year after year after year and it will always be one of the best parts of the season for me. Halloween or Christmas... it's a hit in my book. Although the basic Halloweentown décor is the same each year there is always something different and/or tweaked to give it a new flare. The entire ride is completely transformed, it's simply stunning! Sit back in your Doombuggy and enjoy this holiday classic in all it's glory! The outside of the mansion, the hallways and, heck, even the "room that actually is stretching" is redone. Even if you've never seen the movie, this holiday edition of the Mansion will leave you feeling in the "spirit" and filled with a smile in your soul. It's just good fun! This is Halloween, Halloween, Halloween!!!

The Nightmare Before Christmas comes to the Haunted Mansion and as a fan it was a real treat to experience. Board the black christmas sleigh and venture through the dark mansion as your spooky guide narrates what is unfolding before your eyes. Wreaths with sharp teeth, angels with pumpkins for heads, a skeleton dressed up as Santa, and many more deranged things to be seen. The dining room scene with the gigantic gingerbread house on the table was our favorite with ghosts dancing on the chandelier, and oh, the smell of gingerbread filled the area and was so sweet! Look in the mirrors towards the end for a scary surprise.

It's such a treat to be able to go on this ride. Every holiday season, Disneyland updates the traditional Haunted Mansion ride and adds a "Nightmare Before Christmas" flare to it. I had the awesome treat of getting to experience this ride this past week. Typically, the ride is completely transitioned from outside in. You'll see immediately when falling in line that they've added additional elements to the ride just by falling in line. The soundtrack is also a bit different in some of the different rooms, obviously with a focus on the Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack, which is really neat. What I noticed this year that they didn't have when I had last gone, was the tons of Sally additions to this ride! It was really cool to see her everywhere unlike in previous years. PSA: If you've already seen their Halloween Fantasmic show, you should definitely hop on this ride during it. The wait was only 30 minutes, when it's usually about 65 minutes during any other time.

What happens when Halloween and Christmas collide?! The magic of the Haunted Mansion is magnified. The outside of the mansion has undergone a Christmas makeover. I found the line experience to be one of better ones because of this since there was a ton to look at. I also recommend coming at night to up the spooky factor too. It just seems a little more special with the lighting and decorations. For this ride it kind of begins before you even get to the main ride portion of it and it sets you up with some really cool storytelling. You "officially" embark by getting on a moving conveyor belt and hopping into a two-seater pod. The narrator tells you a Christmas story while you view scenes of what is happening. If you have any young children with you, the scariness comes from it being dark with the Nightmare Before Christmas style imagery. There aren't any jump scares. We actually wound up riding this twice in a row because of how awesome it was. It was also later in the night so the line was moving a lot faster. There is a lot to see and it's easy to miss all the detail since some of the interesting things to see are ghosts and well, they aren't always visible. Keep your eyes peeled!

If I had my way, the Nightmare Before Christmas changes would always be in effect on this ride, as it just seems right. That said, I know that there are those who love and cherish the original ride, as well as the cheesy Haunted Mansion movie, and I guess it would ruin the magic a bit if Jack and crew were there 365 days a year. Some parts of the ride are unmodified (the head in the crystal ball, for example), but most of the remaining features are swapped out or dressed in Halloween town garb and/or their Christmas finery, and all of your favorite characters make at least one appearance somewhere along the way. If you're in Disneyland in the final months of the year, this ride is a must see, during either of the two celebrated holiday seasons!

Amazing! Incredible! WOW! The Haunted Mansion gets a serious mega-makeover for the Halloween holiday and becomes the Nightmare Before Christmas. I was floored with how different it was. So many unique decorations and things. So completely on point with Nightmare Before Christmas. You would think it was a Nightmare Before Christmas specific ride and not another ride given an overlay. It was just that well done. This holiday version of the Haunted Mansion is absolutely not to be missed! You can get a FastPass for it, which is highly recommended. Wait times in the standby line have gone to 120+ minutes for this. But the wait is worth it. It's just stellar! So well done. Even the smells! There are no words to do this holiday makeover justice. You've got to just see it.

I love "The Nightmare Before Christmas" and as is I love the Haunted Mansion ride, so combining the two is such a winning combination! This special version of the Haunted Mansion goes on from around half of September until the New Year, so you get around 1/4 of the year to get the chance to check it out. However, during this time, the ride is especially crowded with waits averaging from 45 minutes to well over an hour. So make sure you get a Fast Pass! Everything is decked out to follow the holiday and Nightmare Before Christmas theme. From the exterior all the way until the end of the ride, it is crammed pack with Nightmare Before Christmas Decorations. I especially LOVE Madam Leota's fortune telling area with the Nightmare Before Christmas tarot cards floating around. The dining hall is also intricately detailed and smells of gingerbread! This is one of the rides I'd go on again and again just to see all the small wonderful details.

This is one of my favorite attractions at a Disney resort. This holiday layover is a match made in heaven. Jack and his friends fit right in. The only downside is that if you are visiting from August to January, there is no regular mansion. I love all the decor and holiday music. They incorporate all of the beloved characters from the Tim Burton film. I also really love the Oogie Boogie finale. When you are in the Ballroom scene, it smells like Gingerbread. The wonderful tradition is a special stop for my family. Every year the imagineers add a little extra to the ride. The ever changing and growing attraction is most famous for it's Gingerbread House. The imagineers leave everyone is suspense to find out what the design will be every year. Go and enjoy this attraction. As a tip, visit after Halloween for a slightly shorter line. However, the line is worth it!

So if you read my reviews by now you may have noticed that I kinda love Disneyland, lol. Well I also love The Haunted Mansion and The Nightmare Before Christmas sooooo, I REALLY love Haunted Mansion Holiday! The original ride is awesome but the addition of The Nightmare Before Christmas from Halloween thru the new year is just SO Disney extra! Another part of what makes it more special is that it is exclusive to Disneyland so you won't see this at any other Disney park. Also, the giant gingerbread house in the dining room is real, baked from scratch gingerbread that is hand decorated and is different every year! Oh that Disney magic!!!

I love Disneyland during the Holidays!! One of my favorite rides during the Holiday is the Haunted Mansion Holiday ride. The Haunted Mansion Holiday Ride is The Nightmare before Christmas Themed. Disney changes the ride for the Holidays. Typically wait time for the Haunted Mansion, not holiday themed, is usually 20 minutes or so, but during the holidays, the Haunted Mansion Holiday can easily get up to 60-70 minute wait time. My daughter and I visited Disneyland during Thanksgiving break. We ended up getting on the Haunted Mansion Holiday, first thing, when Disneyland opened up at 8:00 A.M. We rushed over there to beat any crowds that would typically appear after 10:00 A.M. You can get a Fast Pass for this ride, but don't wait too long. If you try to get a Fast Pass after 4:00 P.M during the holiday week, you might not be able to get one. The Holiday Haunted Mansion usually starts in October to the first week of January. The ride then closes down for a week afterwards to remove all of the holiday decorations. The whole ride is decorated as Nightmare Before Christmas. The interior has all holiday themed garland, lights, etc.. The inside of the ride has Jack Skellington, Zero, Oogie Boogie, Sally, and much more! It's a slow moving ride where you just sit in and enjoy the beautiful decorated Haunted Mansion. Soundtracks change during the ride as well that have various songs from the Nightmare Before Christmas! It's a must-do in Disneyland if you're visiting during the holidays!

Another one of my favorites and depending on who you talk to I may have the unpopular opinion here. I do love almost anything and everything Fall and Halloween themed and have been a huge fan of Jack, Sally, Zero, and Oogie since the movie came out. When Disneyland decided to do the NBC overlay on the Haunted Mansion I couldn't be any more excited. I do love the original Haunted Mansion but every year I wait patiently for that overlay and for Jack to deck the halls of the Haunted Mansion. My favorite scene is the hallway overlay with Zero and his bowl of bones, he is just so darned cute (he's my favorite!). I think to some degree it might be better for kids as well, they might find the everyday ride scary but the NBC overlay sort of lightens things up a bit. The gingerbread house is different every year and is always gorgeous (although I am allergic to ginger so even the smell of it makes me puff like a pufferfish). Year after year there is always something new and different in the attraction. It is so well done and just a great way to kick off the holiday season (I always say Halloweentime is the start for all holidays). Afterall, it is when "two holidays collide".

Disney does such a great job every year with this ride. The Nightmare Before Christmas movie details are just amazing from having Vampire Teddy throughout the ride to Oogie Boogie at the end. I also love that they incorporated the Monster Wreath! The music on this ride is so catchy. A different gingerbread house is put in the dining room every year so I always look forward to seeing the new design. To add to the experience, riders are greeted with a whiff of gingerbread scent in the dining room which adds to the holiday spirit. Try to get a Fastpass as this ride gets very busy during the season. Fastpass distribution sometimes ends during late afternoon so plan accordingly!

I really enjoyed the Haunted Mansion Holiday. I love the gingerbread house. Got a chance to go it for first time for Halloween Time. Will definitely be going on the ride again when I go back for Halloween or Christmas time.

I took a star away, the Mansion just didn't have the pizazz I remember it having in past visits. Just seemed a little tired. The lines are pretty much all long, so I'd probably stand in a different one next time.

Haunted Mansion Holiday is my favorite of the Holiday rides. The Nightmare Before Christmas is intertwined perfectly with the entire ride. It goes up for Halloween and stays up through Christmas so there is plenty of time to catch it. There's no single rider line, so if you're worried about a long line take advantage of the fast pass option. Nearly the whole ride is updated for the holidays so it is a completely different experience from the normal mansion attraction. I highly recommend it to all Disney, and especially Nightmare Before Christmas, fans.

I LOVE this ride. Especially during the holidays. It is very popular as it is one of the few rides transformed for the holidays. It perfectly represents when Christmas and Halloween collide. I cannot stress enough how essential a fast pass is (thank me later). The ride transforms typically a little bit before Halloween and ends about the first week of January so you have plenty of time to catch the transformation if you do not have time to come during the holidays. The Haunted Mansion is transformed into the Nightmare Before Christmas. Jack Skeleton, Zero, Sally, and Oogie Boogie are all included. It's a slow moving ride (no big drops or sudden jolts etc). However, it can be scary for kids as it's dark and creepy for young ones who do not understand that well. My 2 year old brother was scared but lived through it. Definitely a great ride for the holidays.

I love this version of Haunted Mansion, as it gets flipped upside down and changes the theme from spooky to a fun holiday attraction! Haunted Mansion transforms and is influenced by The Nightmare Before Christmas, with cool decorations, sounds from the movie, new characters, and Jack Skellington leading the whole shindig! This theme adds some jolliness and fun, which does take away from being spooky, but the attraction/ride may be better this way! You can enjoy this theme from September-early January, as The Nightmare Before Christmas theme fits perfectly into Halloween AND Christmas! This is a must see!

The old standard still is special. The decorations are remarkable as ever. The Christmas decorations are still a bit of the blend between Halloween and Christmas though.

Haunted Mansion and Haunted Mansion Holiday are one of my 3 favorite Disneyland attractions. I love both versions of this attraction equally.
