35. Haunted Mansion Holiday Distory: Hidden Hitchhikers, Swapping Heads, & Sandworm Secrets
The hitchhiking ghosts take a hike for Disneyland's Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay in favor of Oogie Boogie... right? Well, not quite.In this episode of Distory, we return to the Haunted Mansion for a look at the making of the Nightmare before Christmas & some other mansion overlay possibilities that never came to pass. We then hop in our dark carriages and go on a hunt in every nightmarish scene in the mansion for an (unofficial) mascot and explore some unique connections to Disney parks history tied into the overlay at both Disneyland and Tokyo Disneyland.Note: Somehow we both managed to forget to include the fact that Madame Leota for this overlay is Kim Irvine, who just so happens to be the daughter of Leota Toombs (the original Madame Leota). We were so delighted by Kirk singing the 13 days of Christmas that it must have dematerialized out of our minds. You have our apologies.
