The fact that imagineers have made something as majestic and terrifying as this makes me even sadder that beastly kingdom doesnt exist

[@nicholaslienandjaja1815]

Fun fact: This dragon is NOT meant to be Maleficent. According to the backstory of the attraction, the dragon (who happens to be male) was adopted by Merlin when it was still an egg to guard his magic shop.

[@HyperPopzchannel601]

I remember when I was younger my dad took me down here and told me that this dragon ate children for his dinner and I was next 😂

[@Zack-vs3rc]

I got to meet Terri Harden, the Disney imagineer who got design and create this attraction. Insane amount of detail and devotion to her work, when she was describing it I had to go online and check it out.

This Dragon has been there since the beginning

[@Pamview]

Don't be fooled. In real life this dragon is much more realistic and scarier. I still get scared approaching it and I'm 21! My first experience with it was when I was 8 and I straight up cried the whole time 😂

[@pocketcat9049]

When I was little I used to stand there, waiting for the dragon to roar for hours. I can’t wait to spend my time staring at a dragon animatronic all day.

[@TheIndependentLens]

I dig how you slowly walked down the tunnel. It gave it some ominousness. Maybe I've watched too much "Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter?" The dragon looks fantastic!

[@eurossocial]

This is super awesome!! But it doesn't move his tail. It would be great to splash his tail in the water.

[@SledgeNE]

When i was there, in 1994, the Dragon was black. I have two photos from that time in not so good quality. I have a big fear about animatronics. I was not on the Nautilus.

Looking this up on a whim, I found out it was designed by a person named Terri Hardin. I looked her up, and found out that she’s designed an astounding amount of amazing puppets and effects. The stillsuits in Dune, the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man (and other Ghostbuster puppets), the Flintstones movie, Captain EO… that’s just a fraction of what she’s done.

[@AoiUsagiOtoko]

the design and movement on this thing are absolutely gorgeous, it's a lot more lifelike than you'd expect! i feel like i'd be terrified being in the same room as this dragon but watching it from a safe distance i'm mesmerized 😍

[@kaitlynreynolds5192]

Wow the way it wakes up and roars makes it look almost real! It's beautiful in a way

[@danielfwiersema9427]

Her wings flap too. She's gorgeous!!!

[@CelestialDarkness45]

disneyland has a new fantasmic dragon, disneyland paris has this badass dragon, and we have.....a head on a stick. when are we going to get a new dragon? it's not fair.

[@alexgremlin3680]

I saw this as a kid in my only visit to Disneyland and LOVED it! This guy's been in my memories ever since and it's still in my memory to this day and I know deep down, I'm gonna have a new encounter with this magnificent predator.

I remember going here but the gate was closed but there was a jewelry shop inside the castle and behind it a small door, and the curious little me went back there and saw it and shitted himself went back out quicker then i got in lmao

[@maslover12]

This is my first time even knowing that this exists and IT IS AMAZING! I NEED TO GO TO DISNEYLAND PARIS MAINLY FOR THIS😱

[@Keepscrolling1]

Wtf I have been there 15 times and I never knew this existed 😱 I’m going there tomorrow
