Hmmmmmmmm, but what if Mickey isn't the only hidden character in the parks? What if...there are others? Other characters secretly hidden in the parks and rides? Is there, you may ask yourself?

Well, let's head over to the library at the WDW's Haunted Mansion and take a look at the books on its table. Does the book on top look familiar? Look closely:

Image

Can't read the title under those cobwebs? Well, maybe this other book on the floor under the table would help:

Image

Still to hard to see? Maybe a close-up will help:

Image

Yes, it's Jack Skellington! And the book on top of the table is none other than The Nightmare Before Christmas! After the recent renovation that gave us the pictures that morph with lightning, the room of Escher-like stairways, and Constance the Black Widow Bride in the attic, we also got "Hidden Jacks" in the WDW's Haunted Mansion. Besides Constance now residing in the attic, we also find among her wedding gifts this book:

Image

Yes, it's another Hidden Jack! And I'm told there are more still in the WDW Haunted Mansion! Could this be an eerie foreshadowing that in the future WDW's Haunted Mansion will one day become...The Haunted Mansion Holiday???

[Insert a crack of Thunder] BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! :shock: :twisted: :D

Really needs the audio of Paul Frees laughing to make that work :wink:

You know, Mindflipper, you really like Jack Skellington waaaaaaaay too much.....

:mrgreen:
Teasing, of course. Good eye in finding those!
But of course, this is a thread about Hidden Mickeys, so you may not find much interest in other hidden characters here. But it is interesting...... :mrgreen:

True, but most people think Mickey is the ONLY hidden Disney characters in the park. I thought they may enjoy the paradigm shift. Maybe some other people out there will find other hidden Disney characters when they visit the park next time?

I've been told that in the Raiders of the Lost Ark scene within the Great Movie Ride you can find R2D2 and C3PO on the Egyptian heiroglyphs on the walls. However, I haven't found it yet.

Also, I have to be honest, I didn't find these. I got them a friend of mine, GRD.

Those are cool pics Mindflipper didn't know they were in the haunted mansion. From what I've read there are many different characters hidden just like hm's...can't say I've seen any that I know of.

I seem to recall having heard about R2D2 and C3PO as well, but I've never remembered to look. I do look carefully for H.M's on that ride, just like everywhere, and if the droids were easy to spot, I think I would have seen them.

My problem, I don't know where. I just had a picture of that part of the hieroglphics. The picture didn't tell me where it was located in that room.

Wish you luck in the HM; remember, its dark and you're moving quickly, so seeing the books in the library may be hard (those photos I had got from a friend were probably taken by a CM). Same witht the Great Movie Ride - the Well of Souls Room in the ride is so dark it's not easy to see the walls. So good luck if you try!

Hmmmmmm...... I would say that absent a vandalistic nature by the maker, it is definitely an Unintentional Mickey. Now if any Disney nut out there happens to like vandalism, then it could be a Hidden Mickey, but I would think they would have been more careful about making the right ear touch the head. So I'm going with U.M.
