 Review of Haunted Mansion, The @ Magic Kingdom

This is the worst ride in the world. Since my family wanted to go, we waited in line for about an hour. And the waiting room is like a giant mob! There arent even turnstiles or lines. It was disgusting with all these people breathing on you. The ride is behind in technology too just like all rides at Disney. I mean, all it was is just holographics. 20 years ago that would cut it, but with parks like Universal on the rise, stuff like this is going down. This was an extremely unpleasant experience.

Ill disagree on this. tech isnt everything... sure, it can help, but how the ride is designed to use it is another matter. ie Space Mountain is far from a cutting edge roller coaster, yet still a great ride, even sans mega-thrills. same deal here. Sure, the technology is 30 years old, but its still used brilliantly. The atmosphere, the detail, the humor, the design all combine to make this really fun. The part when the ghosts step out of the portraits is awesome (and creepy).

Ive never waited more than ten minutes for the Haunted Mansion. Just holographics? I dont think so.

The line for this ride moves fast cuz the cars are continuously moving like on Space Ship Earth. The effects are great!!! What Haunted Mansion did you go on?

Geez! Does anyone not respect genius when they see it--Even when its old? The Imagineers at the Magic Kingdom (Heck! At Disneyland, too!!) were years and years and years ahead of their time when they designed this ride. Pay attention to the detail of the ride, the love that was put into it for the sake of entertainment....Its mind-boggling! There are websites out there dedicated to the Haunted Mansion and all of its detail. Did you now that the Mansion actually tells a story? Go search google under Haunted Mansion and check em out. Youll change your mind then.

When you were there the lines were TERRIBLE, I was there that week too. The ride is a classic it is no different than the Cyclone at Coney Island. I rode the Cyclone and was totally unimpressed but I also realized this is the grand daddy of them all and chose not to rate it.

Just a fact to think about WDW attendance is the highest in the WORLD and US and IOA are consistently behind and flat in their increases. http://themeparks.about.com/cs/usparks/a/attendance2003.htm

Universal obviously doesnt have a ride 30 years old but if you take a look at jaws, et and back to the future i dont want to hear about rides that are to dated. all 3 of those need a major overhaul and they are a lot younger. the reviewer did have a valid point about the line. the haunted mansion and tough to be a bug are like the lines that time forgot.
