Neo Disneyland's Haunted Manion part 2

Coming into view is a magnificent two story library, in which guests will board their doom buggies. Series of volumes and tomes line the walls while a latter swings back and forth as invisible hands pull books in and out of shelves, turning pages, writing down a feathered quill pin. On the opposite side, marble busts follow guests with their stern gaze.

Once guests board their doom buggies, Mr Bloodmere will assist to lower the safety bar.

"Please, allow me to lower the safety bar. Once on board, remain seated at all times in your carriage at all times, no flash pictures and watch your children please."

   While passing a griffon statue on the bannister, the buggies will asend guests to the second floor of the mansion. On the landing, they pass a portrait of a young woman in a bridal gown. 

"Lovely isn't she?"

One of the illusion that guests will  first see a long and expanding corridor. A spirit appears and disappears in the middle of the hallway right before their eyes. The spirt resembles the bride from the portrait, it appears that she is running from someone. 

     Coming up is a grand music salon, furnished with musical instruments, antique sitting furniture and caged raven cawing menacingly at the guests. A shadowy phantom can be seen on the rays of the moon from the large bay window, playing the piano, accompanied by a harpist and cellist. 

   Sound Track: Phantom Manor Music Room

Proceeding on, is a hallway with doors on both sides.  Screams and cries echo through out the halls, followed by maniacal laughter, unearthly growls and roars. A spirit pushes through the door and walls with a powerful force.

The buggies pass through a series of family photographs that adorn the walls, some of them are changing into corpses and ghouls as they proceed. 

At the end of the corridor, a large grandfather cloak rest in the corner. The hands spin out of control while chiming midnight. The wallpaper starts to blink with glowing green eyes. 

   

Soundtrack: Phantom Manor Seance Room

Coming into view is a circular seance room, heavy draper adorns the ceiling and arches with a griffon sconces. At the center of the room is a table with a woman's head inside a crystal ball, channeling the spirits of the house. 

"Spirits and specters on your proud stallions, escort the bride through the night. Bogies and beasties from All Hallows Eve, awaken the spirit with your tambourine. Phantoms and shadows, hear my call. Come one, come all to the ball. At the stroke of midnight, we'll dance until the morning light." 

All around the buggies, objects and insturments levitate in mid air. As a spirit start to materialize. 

"The spirits have felt your sympathetic vibrations and they are beginning to materialize. They are assembling a swinging wake in my honor. I'll see you a little later."

Soundtrack: Haunted Mansion/Phantom Manor Ballroom

A grand salon comes into view, ghostly guests disembark from a hearse carrying wedding presents, while an elderly woman sits and rocks next to the fireplace. The dining table is decorated with decayed flowers and a molding wedding cake with a group of ghosts disappear and reappear. 

     The Bride is seen standing half way at the stairs, looking at the celebration that never was. The figure of a man in pirate attire can be seen standing on the open window. His laughter rings through out the hall. Two drunken pirate ghosts are seen swinging on the grand chandelier. Couples in early 1800's dress attire float on the dance floor while waltzing, as an demented musician plays on a massive organ.       

The Haunted Mansion at Neo Disneyland

The attraction will be loosely based on both Ken Anderson's original concept and the Phantom Manor.  

Among the hustle and bustle of Victorian Square in Neo Disneyland, past The Black Cat Tavern, Leota's Spirit Parlor, Paul's Funeral Home, and Crump's Occult Book Shop and Curiosity Shop. Lies a rather decrepit gothic early 19th century manor house. Complete with widow's walk and weather vain in the shape of a ship on the copula. Guests will make their way through a wrought iron gate guarded by gargoyles that will follow them by turning their necks. Next is a grand courtyard with over grown vegetation and exotic plants. A cast member dressed as statue will come to life and interact with guests.

  Just before entering, guests will notice a few things that they've missed. Such as a wedding ring embedded in the cobblestone pavement and a silhouetted figure on the upper windows. A maid or butler character will open the front doors and escort guest to a short hallway and into the foyer.

Inside the foyer is decorated with portraits, including a portrait of a regal yet stern looking gentleman on top of marble fireplace. Once guests enter the foyer of the house, the lights of the chandelier will blink out as the fire place starts to light up unnatural green flames and portrait comes to life. 

"Welcome guests, do come and make room for everyone. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Master Bartholomew Bloodmeer and welcome to my humble home. For you may not believe it that was once a dream house for my future bride. I see your curious about what happened, come let show you." 

While as Mr Bloodmemre begins to narrate, the painting begin to animate by themselves. As he speaks, the room morphs from a bright ambiance into derelict state of disrepair.  

"Our story begins here in 1838, when I met the woman of my dream, Lavinia.  But fate had other plans for her instead. It was on the eve of the wedding that Lavinia discovered my secret in the attic. That I was the infamous pirate Captain Blood. However I managed to dispose of her and the rest of the wedding guests. But story doesn't end. After that ghastly nights, I became tormented with the vengeful spirits of my victims, until I decided to take my own life. So I advise you turn back now, or suffer our fate like us. "

  Suddenly, the lights blink out and lighting flashes as the ceiling becomes transparent to revel a man hanging from a makeshift noose on his neck on the rafters of the attic copula. As he kicks the chair and his body still twitches, just before his death. The lights then return back on and room returns normal.

"Oh, I'm sorry to frighten you. Come, their is much more to see, so move along and stay together."

Whit that, a bookcase opens to revile a hallway lined with portraits on each side of the hall. Some of theme will transform right before the guest's very own eyes, while others will follow them with a sinister glare.

"While passing through my personal collection of priceless works of art. You can not help but witness  yet another disquieting metamorphosis. But it's only a trick of the light."

    At the end of the hall, is a large portrait of Captain Blood and his wife. His menacing glare seems to follow guests as they proceed to the next room.

Ideas and thoughts for Howl o Scream

Williamsburg 

In England, Banburry is in a state of paranoia in a 17th century witch hunt. The scareactors will be wearing clothing from the late 17th century, carrying pitch forks and torches, the preacher, executioner and the accused while interacting with park guests to think they are witches.

In Scotland, Sawney Bean and clan of cannibals stock the misty moors, searching for fresh meat.      

One of the houses in Ireland will feature The Banshee, a spirit that haunts the ruins of Castle o Sullivan and the spirits of the family that haunt the crumbling halls that the Banshee claims.

France is converted into St Lucius's Cathedral, adored with gargoyles that come to life at nightfall. Along with demented monks, stilt walking demons, and possessed angelic statues. The house that will take place of Catacombs will be based on the classic story of Edgar Allen Poe's Murders in the Rue Mourge. In this version, an escaped lunitic called The Beast is running amouk in the streets of Paris.

The new house that will replace Bitten is The Barn, where canibalistic butchers, and scarecrows wait for new victims.
