Hello and back to the Most Amazing Channel on the internet – I am your host Rebecca
Felgate and I have just realized I should have bought my Disney mouse ears…..
damn…
I am always filled with the best ideas but they always come after they are in any way
useful.
Just…
I don’t know …. Imagine them.
Anyway, I am Rebecca Felgate and today we are talking the Top 10 Scary Disneyland Experiences.
Hands up who loves Disneyland….those who you who have been - let me know your favourite
Disney Park ride in the comments section down below – mine is SPACE MOUNTIAN ! What is
not to love!
If you haven’t been, why don’t you tell me your favourite theme park ride!
LIKE / SHARE/ GRAM/ WHAM OKAY SHALL WE BLOOMINGWELL DO THIS THEN!
This list is made up of first hand anecdotes, ghost stories and worrying observations from
the alleged most magical place on earth….
So buckle up and don’t forget to SCREAM IF YOU WANT TO GO FASTER!!!!!
10 - The Leg This worrying anecdote was shared on a Buzzfeed
article about horrifying days at Disneyland.
Paige M wrote a worrisome entry about nearly being hit by a flying appendage.
She wrote: While riding Everest in Animal Kingdom, I saw an object fly past my head
during the drop.
When the ride stopped, a man four rows ahead of my raised his hand and informed the Cast
Member that his prosthetic leg had somehow fallen off during the ride.
They had to stop the ride and go find it."
Gosh, that was quite the close call… being hit in the face with a prosthetic would be
pretty stressful at the best of times but on a rollercoaster…well…you could die!
9 - Ashes to Ashes It is a popular urban legend that a number
of people have spread their loved ones ashes at Disneyland – rumour has it that the most
popular spot to offload ashes is the haunted mansion… maybe it was someone’s final
wish to take part in the dance of the dead…although I am not sure I would want to be a real ghost
of the mansion…
I’ve literally never thought about it until this moment but I suddenly realize that I
absolutely need my ashes spread outdoors….
I cannot be inside… so I think I’d be more of a sprinkle me around the exterior
of the castle kinda gal….wow… this got dark… an occupational hazard of working
on this channel these days.
SO anyway, one first hand eye witness wrote into people magazine to say: While riding
Pirates of the Caribbean a few years ago, a lady pulled out a bag and dumped the contents
into the water.
She was crying and sort of laughing at the same time.
It soon became clear that she had dumped her husbands ashes in the water as his final resting
place.
She was caught on camera and got in trouble, but it couldn’t be undone.
Both creepy and cool at the same time.
Good god that is horrifying.
The worst thing that happened to me on the pirates of the Caribbean ride was that I lost
my sparkly mouse ears.
OH BUT there is more scary Pirates of the Caribbean DRAMA up next – 8
SO… you are riding along on the Pirates of the Caribbean in Disneyland – and as
you know if you have been on the ride – there is an animatronic pirate that looks like Johnny
Depp’s character, Captain Jack Sparrow.
Sure.
But…today it looks…..very real….
Is this frontline Disney TECH OR like…is it Johnny Depp.
Turns out, sometimes it is actually the real life pirate…or real life actor… you get
me.
Back in April 2017 he jumped aboard the river cruise attraction in California and gave fans
both a fright and a delight.
Depp has since revealed he thought it was a bad idea….
“I was very excited to stand stock still and then shout out, ‘Oi, what you lookin’
at?'” he told the host.
“I got no reaction whatsoever – nothing!
I then had to start describing the people I was shouting at so they knew I was real.
“It was exhausting and such a bad idea!”
Here is a little clip of the lad sparrowing it up…CLIP
7 - The Crying Boy Could there be anything more distressing than
seeing a lost crying child at Disneyland?
The place is supposed to be filled with happy children having their best day.
A small crying boy has been spotted near the exit of the haunted mansion on multiple occasions
by guests and employees.
When people have gone over to speak to him and offer him comfort he has ignored them
as if they aren’t there.
Some swear has just vanished in thin air too.
I would be scared… maybe I would think it is an extension of the ride… but that would
be pretty messed up.
It seems that actually many people think that the boy is a ghost of a child who have had
their ashes scattered on the ride.
Blimey.
Back to those ashes again
You know I said I loved Space Mountain… well… nobody told me it was haunted!!!
6- THE Ghost Hitchhiker on Space Mountain This is the story of Mr One Way….
A man who rides Space Mountain but never gets off.
So the legend has it that a red haired man who died on the ride in the 1970s can still
be spotted in on the attraction today…and he is looking for company.
It is said that he sits up next to single riders, but by the time the ride ends, there
is absolutely no sign of him.
This has baffled many riders who have sworn that have been sitting next to someone who
seemingly just vanishes from beside them before the ride is over.
Can you imagine?
That would scare me much harder than the rides scary moon.
For those that don’t see Mr One Way him, they say they can feel him behind them if
there is an empty seat at the back.
There have been a number of reports of the hitcher, and he may or may not have been caught
on camera a couple of times, check this out.
5- It’s a Small World IS NOT OKAY.
I think most Scary Disneyland Experiences start and end with It’s A Small World.
The ride is terrifying because tiny dolls are terrifying and so are the sounds of little
children singing…
It’s a Small World is an OG Disney ride so there are many many ghost stories and urban
legends about its existence – one being that the dolls move of their own accord…
one more credible source is author Ridley Pearson who swears he saw the dolls move…
he was on a VIP afterhours tour and is convinced they have a life of their own.
Whether than is true or not I don’t know, but I do know a man was once awarded 8 thousand
dollars after being stuck on the ride for over 30 minutes and forced to endure the songs
over and over.
That actually would send me insane.
4 - The Lamp Imagine what it is like to work at Disneyland.
Guests are always treated to a very front facing experience, but imagine working at
Disneyland and knowing and seeing everything that goes on behind the scenes…
I bet it is a whole different experience.
One member of the cleaning stuff had a truly scary experience shortly after Walt Disney
died in the mid 1960s.
Walt used to have an apartment above the fire station on main street and frequently stayed
there after the park opened in 1955.
When he was in residence it is said he always kept a lamp burning in the window so everyone
knew he was there.
When he died, the lamp was switched off.
Eerily, it seemed that the lamp would turn itself back on.
One day, a staff member was cleaning the apartment when she heard a voice that said “I’m
still here.”
From that day on, Disney’s lamp keeps burning in the window as a mark of respect and acknowledgement
for his ghost.
I’ve seen the lamp with my own eyes!
3 - Dolly’s Dipp In Disneyland California it is said that the
Matterhorn ride is haunted and both guests and park employees have felt a presence ever
since a woman died on the track in 1984.
Dolly Young was said to have unbuckled her seatbelt and stood up in order to assist a
child, when she was thrown onto the tracks and run over by the next bobsled.
It is said that during one point of the ride, named Dolly’s Dipp, she can sometimes be
seen or most often felt.
The cold spots you feel on the ride aren’t Disney sticking to the winter alpine theme,
it could be Dolly.

2 The Deadbody of the Haunted Mansion In 2016 a dead man was found in Disney’s
Phantom Manor in Disneyland Paris in 2016.
It seems that the corpse belonged to a man who had worked at the park for 14 years and
had been accidentally . The man had been working on lighting just backstage when he did.
The ride was stopped immediately and closed down while the body was removed and an investigation
into the began.
How awful – a haunted house being the scene of an actual .
1 Big Thunder Mountain Oh dear.
There have been two horrifying experiences on Big Thunder Mountain – most recently
in 2011 when a train derailed in the Paris Park when a carriage derailed and caused trains
to collide.
In the same year a piece of the rockwork fell into the track in front of a train causing
a serious injury, but the scariest thunder mountain experience came in September 2003
in Disneyland California when a the train sped through the faux desert landscape and
uphill into a tunnel, where the train cars became separated and the locomotive derailed.
Derailed in the dark.
Eye witnesses said riders climbed from the cars and started screaming for help – one
guest were heard a man yelling “Someone is hurt bad.
It's really serious.
Get someone up here.”
A man, 22 year old Marcelo Torres, was killed in the accident and ten others were injured.
I can’t even imagine something like that happening, not knowing if it is part of the
ride or if something has gone horribly wrong

Silver Asuno : I love the legend of Atlantis, but a theory I came up with is what if the
city of Atlantis was ruled by Poseidon, but one day the people defied him, and he sunk
the city into the deepest part of the ocean, where it would never be seen again.
Spooky huh?
Oooh very spooky!
I wrote a story about Poseidon …. I feel pretty strongly about him!
Google it if you want!
