I am a huge Haunted Mansion fan and coincidentally I just saw this movie! I caught some of these references but I can’t believe how many there are and how many you guys caught. You guys are awesome lol!
You missed the doors as well. In the ride and in the movie, the doors sometimes expand out towards you like it's made of rubber and something is about to burst through it. And then there's the bell reference that leota sites in the ride when she says "Wizards and witches wherever you dwell, give us a hint by ringing a bell." They used the bell when Ben was in the paranormal world to bring him back. And then the trees with scary faces that come to life in the yard and try to get the trio when they escape to Crump mansion are a reference to the trees you see in the ride with scary faces and branches that look like they're reaching for you.
You missed the Rolly Crump chair aka the Face Chair. In the movie it is in the seance room, but in the ride it's next to the Endless Corridor. Also there's the Hatchet Ghost from the Corridor of Doors as seen in a series of portraits in the movie. The raven, which was an important character in the Haunted Mansion record album from 1969 and is seen throughout the ride, is also in the movie. The portrait of April December is the one behind which is the tunnel to the seance room. I'm sure there are more, as I've only seen the movie once (so far), and there's so much detail! Thank you for this video! Hurry baaack!
They mentioned the face chair. They just didn’t show it. The Doom Buggy chair is called a Versailles chair. And I’ve been saying for YEARS that this is what the ride needs to update itself to!
There are much more subtle Easter Eggs in the movie too. For example, in the very last scene of the dining room party, the image slides to the right with a black color filling the frame to replace it. This is very similar to how the same scene in the ride leaves our view, as the ride vehicles travel to the left and the view of the dining room disappears to the right from the rider's point of view.
Good movie! Sad that they pick the worst time to release it, I love the ride and want more Haunted Mansion films to explore the lore and even other mansions like Phantom Manor
At the end when Ben returns to the house, one of the pumpkins 🎃 is carved with the famous Haunted Mansion wallpaper. And when they go to Crumps mansion and asking Winona Ryder’s character about the cane, you’ll see a haunted ghost bride bust that’s sold at Michael’s.
You guys are great! So many wonderful tidbits. The one I did notice that you did not point out, when you were referencing the chairs, is that Ben sits in the Roly Crump chair is a the top of the staircase in the ride, to the left of the entrance of the great hall where the floating candelabra is seen. You pointed out so many wonderful easter eggs. The film is a love letter to all of us "Haunted Mansion" ride, fans. I've seen it twice, and I'm going to go again. Thanks again, for your great video.
At the climax when the Hatbox Ghost is tempting Gus at an open grave , it reminded me of the Phantom at the Phantom Manor when he laughs maniacally standing next to an open grave.
I got to watch it on Sunday and I loved it I really loved how they had every Easter egg in the movie but sadly they forgot to put the singing busts in the movie as well
A strange fact is how the movie treats the hatchet bride as a separate character to the stretchroom portrait old lady who killed her husband George. It is officially part of the lore that Constance the hatchet bride is in fact the old woman in the stretchroom portrait. The proof is in the attic scene, the last wedding portrait is of her and George before his head disappears.
I just wanted to point out an subtle but interesting reference the film makes to Owen Wilson's role in the 1999 remake of "The Haunting". When Wilson's and Danny Devito's characters are in the Florida version of the mansion, searching for something to tie in to the Hatbox Ghost, they are seen in front of a large fireplace with a lion's head emblem emblazoned on the rear wall. Anyone who has seen the 1999 version of "The Haunting" will remember that Wilson"s character was beheaded by a lion's head flue in the large fireplace in that film. It's a very subtle reference, and I was expecting Wilson's character in the HM film to say something about feeling uncomfortable in front of the fireplace, but alas, they didn't take the opportunity. Too bad, I thought that would have been funny, and a great nod to those of us who actually enjoyed the 1999 film.
I'm not just impressed that they may do. The hatbox ghost who in the ride, was more of a minor character or antagonist, but instead they made him the main antagonist in this movie, and I was really impressed that they were introducing some true villainy back, I mean, yes, I wouldn't say hes the evil list, but this is some greater villainy. And hes far from the bottom of the list. The villains
We loved the character of the Hatbox ghost! It’s Casey’s favorite Haunted Mansion character! 👻 We think they did a great job with making him the main antagonist.
Probably trying to avoid spoilers, but you glazed over the stretching room details. I didn't make the connection at first, but the alligators, quicksand, and dynamite were homages to the paintings in the room. I also wonder about the busts in the movie. I can't wait to own the blu-ray to get a good look at them.
The one I’m not sure if it’s a reference or not is, when the characters are driving away from the house near the end, one of the trees looks pretty similar to the ones in Snow White’s Scary Adventures.
We were waiting for a Phantom Manor reference but didn’t spot any either! The only thing we think could be a slight nod to the Phantom Manor is the name of Crump Manor. Thanks for watching!
@@mawatzi I thought that too! I guess the ride does have a lot of similarities! Maybe we’ll get a phantom manor movie one day considering it has a completely different storyline. That’d be fantastic!
I needed to ask a question in case someone knew, why was the stretchroom area in the mansion a safe haven? The ghosts left anyone in that room alone for some reason. I was waiting for an explanation but they never explained it.
We assume the stretching is home to the ghosts and things in the portraits. That’s most likely why it was an okay place to stay in but later in the film the portraits caused the room to come to life with the things inside. Not entirely sure though.
And the characters passed through some sort of magical membrane at the top (like the scrim in the attraction) that revealed the rafters… and somehow let them out onto the roof. But there was no Gracey skeleton hanging (which is the entire reason for the scrim and rafter-reveal in the first place)! I thought maybe they wanted to shy away from suicide in a kids movie. But he still does commit suicide. By drinking poison. So why not just show a skeleton in the rafters???
They added all of these things which was pretty cool but in my opinion it was still a terrible movie. I would much prefer the Eddie Murphy version over it, even though that version had no hatbox ghost. I still enjoyed watching the remake for all of the Easter eggs and stuff but will I watch it again? Probably not...

We’re so happy you enjoyed it! Thank you for your support!
Also watched this tonight, it’s just like the ride! 😂 The hatbox ghost is awesome, would give him my soul 😂
@@violetsletsplay21 Lol ikr! Definitely would be willing
I love haunted mansion it's really that scary

Those are some really good ones! They really fit everything in the movie!
@@mawatzi Yes they do, and I love it!
Yes, yes, all this! Also, did you see the bat shaped podiums for the tour at Alistair Crump’s house?
the Mariner is also a callback to an original ride idea that was pitched for the Haunted Mansion, but eventually scratched.

Dont forget about Rolly Crumps chair that Ben sits in while in the seance room
That’s a great catch!

Glad you enjoyed the film as much as we did! We would love to see more Haunted Mansion films too!
They want it on Disney plus for Halloween as soon as possible.
Lakeith is cute ❤
My favorite movie of the year
Can’t believe you caught all of these! Great video!
I loved catching the easter eggs on opening day, my favorite ride
One of our favorites too!
You missed so much. The wall paper being the biggest detail, the doors, the queue rope at Crumps house, the big painting to Leotas room to start.
I love 💕 this reboot when, it has a lot of references to the ride in Disneyland.
You missed that the Disney World ride has a library like in the movie.💀💀
Wow you guys really caught everything lol
I had already realized most of them, but thank you for this video.
I absolutely loved that movie too !
At the end when Ben returns to the house, one of the pumpkins 🎃 is carved with the famous Haunted Mansion wallpaper. And when they go to Crumps mansion and asking Winona Ryder’s character about the cane, you’ll see a haunted ghost bride bust that’s sold at Michael’s.
Wow! Those are super cool details, thanks for sharing!
Hope it counts 🤣 but the spell in the final battle has most of the ghost host says in the beginning of the ride
Great catch!!

Thank you so much! That’s a great detail that you noticed! Thank you for sharing! :)
Looks like Cbris rock could have played the hat box ghost. Ghost looked like chris rock. lol.
Lol we can see it
I really didn’t like that they left out the singing busts
I know, we wished they included them too.
The staring busts didn’t stare at all as well. They also left out the corpse trying to escape from inside his coffin. The 2003 movie referenced that
I'm impressed 👍.
What is about Harriet. She wears after moving in a white "costume" , that looks like the vodoo queen in "The frog and the princess
At the climax when the Hatbox Ghost is tempting Gus at an open grave , it reminded me of the Phantom at the Phantom Manor when he laughs maniacally standing next to an open grave.
It nice that they honor haunted original panther lady painting a bit for film, as base, but saw someone video, still weretiger
I got to watch it on Sunday and I loved it I really loved how they had every Easter egg in the movie but sadly they forgot to put the singing busts in the movie as well
I know you said to see the movie first, but I just couldn’t wait 🫢
Lol! Definitely go see it if you get the chance tho!

I forgot to mention, the attic scene details I mentioned are from the ride itself not the movie attic scene
That’s really interesting, we didn’t know about that! Good catch!

I’m just disappointed the movie left out the singing busts in the graveyard. That’s my favorite part of the ride!
We totally agree! We missed them too. :(
You missed the ride wallpaper jack o lantern at the end of the movie.
Master grace didn’t hang himself like in the ride. He killed himself by poison
I'm not just impressed that they may do. The hatbox ghost who in the ride, was more of a minor character or antagonist, but instead they made him the main antagonist in this movie, and I was really impressed that they were introducing some true villainy back, I mean, yes, I wouldn't say hes the evil list, but this is some greater villainy. And hes far from the bottom of the list. The villains
We loved the character of the Hatbox ghost! It’s Casey’s favorite Haunted Mansion character! 👻 We think they did a great job with making him the main antagonist.
It almost seems as though he was merged with that character from the graveyard (or is it Hell?) in Paris.
Probably trying to avoid spoilers, but you glazed over the stretching room details. I didn't make the connection at first, but the alligators, quicksand, and dynamite were homages to the paintings in the room.
I also wonder about the busts in the movie. I can't wait to own the blu-ray to get a good look at them.
Yes, great catches! We loved those references as well! We can’t wait either.
Rip rolly

Wow I missed some of these!
I loved the movie so much, was there any nods towards Phantom Manor? As I didn’t spot any!

It's been a couple of weeks since I saw the movie, but I seem to remember thinking that the grand staircase reminded me of Phantom Manor.
@@PirateLeota I thought so too but I didn’t know if it was an Easter egg or not!
@@BeckyMD26 Since we both thought the same thing, and maybe other people did too, let's say it is! 😃
I loved the movie, but isn't anyone a bit distraught how they did the hat box ghost dirty 😢❤
The white sculptures in the movie are same as ridee
I needed to ask a question in case someone knew, why was the stretchroom area in the mansion a safe haven? The ghosts left anyone in that room alone for some reason. I was waiting for an explanation but they never explained it.

Some of these references just tells me there are differences between the Haunted mansion ride in Disney world Florida, and Disneyland California
Yes, there are!
Did people actually have notice the reference to It's a small world? It can be heard in the house, which looks like the Haunted Mansion in Florida.
I enjoy the movie.
At least it was an okay movie compared to the other Disney remakes. 👻
Yesterday i watch the movie is very good i like it but this is Haunted Mansion 2
Why did this movie bomb?
And what about the " Donald duck" chaise??
They added all of these things which was pretty cool but in my opinion it was still a terrible movie. I would much prefer the Eddie Murphy version over it, even though that version had no hatbox ghost. I still enjoyed watching the remake for all of the Easter eggs and stuff but will I watch it again?
