:lol: Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! :lol: I really must print out this post as no one would believe it! I am only 5'4" but I like to think I sit up straight so that is why I don't fit the doombuggy like a glove. Thanks for the giggle tonight :D

I love the idea of doombuggy shaped treats!!! Or even Hitchhiking Ghosts, or even the mansion itself!

My problem would be they'd be too cool to eat!!! Oh well...I'd buy them anyway!

Same here--I always have to have my head tipped forward--but I don't mind one bit!

Really excellent question and hard to answer. I guess for me it's the whole graveyard due to its scale but if that doesn't qualify because it's not a room then I would pick the atic because I never get enough time inside of it to really appreciate all the detail.

That is so true, there is so much happening in the attic and you move through relatively quickly...it's hard to take it all in!

Hopefully it will be getting a little more added to it with the rumor of the Hatbox Ghost making a return. :)

And life's a little weird,

Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”

Why does this rumor keep persisting year after year?!? You keep hearing "it's returning" and yet year after year it never shows up! :roll: The Hatbox Ghost wouldn't even fit in with the revised theme of the attic and the black widow bride, Constance. You just gotta face the facts, he's gone - it's time to give up the ghost! :lol: :wink:

I had to mention it. Get at least someone all worked up. I guess I succeeded. :lol: :wink:

Yeh, but I finally got to use "give up the ghost" as a bad but accurate pun! :lol: :wink:

To each their own. But I haven't heard that expression in decades... It hasn't been that long since you wanted to use it, has it? :shock:

Give up the ghost? Now you had to be waiting soo very long on that one! I would think a pun like that would come from Mousekedude or myself!

One of my two favorite rides & an impossible question for me to answer, but I'll try. (Great question btw.) I know much of this has been mentioned...

I guess I will say the Graveyard, so cool & so much to see, not enough time! So many things I love though, the stretching room, the Ghost Host, The Hitchhikers appear in my house every Halloween, the bats that hold the ropes as you board the ride, the skeleton hands holding the purple torches as you see the hitchhiking ghost in your Doom Buggy (Ezra is my favorite) at the end of the ride, the wallpaper, the new room is cool, especially the foorprints, the song is AWESOME, & so is the music! The shadow at the piano, the dueling pictures, all of the still amazing ballroom effects! "Let me outta here", the breathing door, etc.....

there's more but I gotta go!

Decades? Dude, you look like you're 19 or 20. You can't have that many decades. It wasn't decades for me either; I first heard the expression back in 2001 with Disneyland's Haunted Mansion Holiday. It's on the scroll for the HMH. I was unfamiliar with it back then, but have loved using it since.
