After the discussion the attendees headed over to the Rivers of America where reserved seating for Fantasmic! was waiting. After the performance everyone queued up at the Haunted Mansion for a special midnight ride. In the queue and inside the Haunted Mansion, well known cast member Maynard entertained everyone with his spooky voices, funny comments and strange faces. In the hallway leading up to the Doombuggies guests had the opportunity to meet X. Atencio, Rolly Crump, Buddy Baker and Sam McKim. Many took pictures and shared a few stories.

Once onboard the Doombuggies, guests quickly realized this trip through the Mansion would be unlike any other. Live cast members were placed throughout the attraction dressed up for the occasion. There was a knight in the hallway ready to scare unsuspecting mortals. In the attic the bride acquired two bridesmaids. A phantom awaited in the graveyard, and there were a few others. Those who rode earlier in the night were also able to see Marc and Alive Davis sitting in the banquet scene. Unfortunately, they had to leave before the entire group made it through. This special ride through the Haunted Mansion was a marvelous end to a marvelous evening.

Thank you Marc, X, Sam, Rolly, and Buddy for creating such a marvelous residence for the disembodied!
