Haunted Disneyland | Part 3 - Secret Stories
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 июл 2024
- The final installment in the series. Disneyland is 65 years old, and over 650 million people have visited it so far, it's also employed around a third of a million Cast Members since then as well. Such a high concentration of people in one area over a matter of time like that is bound to find itself still visited from beyond the grave. I'm not here to convince you whether or not ghosts are real...but in time for this year's Halloween season, I am ready to share some of my most secret experiences which I believe was paranormal in nature.

Something I wanted to add: like I said in the first video, you don't need to believe the stories. I don't expect you to, I have nothing to prove, I get nothing out of you believing the stories. After all, I think everyone knows I can't scientifically prove these things happened, so just relax and enjoy the Halloween entertainment. People have a lot on their minds and themed videos like these provide entertainment.
I hope you enjoyed this final installment in the series, unfortunately, I don't have any more personal experiences for you, and this video represents the last of the experiences my co-workers have shared with me. I know some of you will want me to make videos about the more notable ghosts at Disneyland such as The Lady in White, Timmy, Mr. OneWay, and others...but I don't do that. As a historian I try to document tangible things about the Disney Parks, not lore and legends or mythical things. But I hope these three videos were fun, I hope that it intrigues you, if not, at least maybe get you into the Halloween spirit. Thank you everyone, have a Happy Halloween!
Walt had a pretty dark childhood, and also lost his mother, carrying that guilt with him that it was his fault she died, because he got her the house. That could be a type of trauma or traumatic event which could leave Walt at Disneyland. Me personally I have seen the outline of a man in Walt's apartment looking down on main street, a good solid 2 or 3 minutes see through but made itself known. Non threatening and it was behind his lamp, so no chance of a cast member shadow there. I could see through him, that I believe was Walt.
@@OGamerGirl92 That’s an interesting theory! Walt had bouts of depression (who doesn’t!) usually centered around his legacy.
I think this would be why Walt would stay behind as a guardian spirit. The thing is, Walt’s “unfinished business” would be more in Walt Disney World. Remember he died before it’s construction, and EPCOT was never built the way he intended.
I know they say there are ghost sightings at the Haunted Mansion and such at WDW.
Another theory about the centralized ghost sightings at haunted mansion would be the dropping of ashes. It’s a common thing over the years at all the parks, so why not have spirt sightings.
@ Thank you, but it's not part of my channel to discuss death or ghosts, I really violated a lot of my own rules to make these 3 videos but I did it in the Halloween spirit. And as for discussing the history of the origins of these ghosts I must re-iterate what I said above, "As a historian I try to document tangible things about the Disney Parks, not lore and legends or mythical things." There's nothing tangible about Mr. OneWay, I personally don't believe the story they tell of his origins, because it can't be proven. No man with red curly hair has died on Space Mountain.
@@OGamerGirl92 I see what you mean, when I was in Guest Relations, I would sometimes do checks on the apartment...making sure things were in order for a tour to go through it and stuff. My fellow cast members would say they saw a man in the room sometimes but he would disappear, they said he didn't look like Walt, but more like one of the male janitors that might have taken care of Walt's apartment. Walt experienced beatings from his father as a child, I wouldn't say it was a dark childhood or even traumatic, he never spoke of it that way, at least. But the death of his mother is something that might keep him around, I'll admit that...I dunno...I have trouble imagining such a happy man, who in the last 25 years of his life got pretty much anything he wanted and anything he needed, still being so hurt that he stayed behind. But I can't say it didn't.
@Just Saying: there has only been ashes dumped once at any Disney park, and it was Disneylands Haunted Mansion. Its never happened again. The story is retold so many times by different people that now the narrative is "multiple" ash dumpings, but thats not the case.
castmembers never get enough credit
Thank you and yes we never do
I know it'll never happen but imagine if Ghost Adventures investigated Disneyland
That would be so cool. Maybe some day they will.
Or Buzzfeed Unsolved!!?? Ryan and Shane doing something like that would BE AMAZING
"I could go off on a story about Timmy... but that's not what I'm here for." I'm here for it!! Tell us! :)
lol, I apologize, but I won't...half of the famous "ghosts of Disneyland" -the ones that are retold over and over...I believe to be either fake, or have fake origin stories. My channel focuses on factual events.
Timmy is a real ghost I experienced it a night I will never forget it working at Disneyland when every guests gos home most 3rd shift custodial has had ghost apear for them
@@AlextheHistorian Wikipedia said there have been 26 deaths at Disneyland! 😵 No wonder it's haunted.
@@customairbrushing9224Is Timmy at Winnie the Pooh by any chance? I was riding it not so long ago and heard little footsteps running up next to my vehicle. I thought a child was running loose in the attraction, lol. Staff made a comment when I mentioned it...
@@tiarose1892 yes timmy
i can vouch for the underground area of hungry bear, one night i had to bring used aprons from Blue Bayou over and set them in a soiled linen bin. It was after the park had closed so it was DARK i had to walk past splash mountain and up to Hungry Bear, as i made it into the basement room, it was EXTREMELY eerie, the bin was on the other side of the room. I remember just tossing it into the bin and thank god i made it in and never walked back through the park quicker in my life.
I believe that spirits can visit places where they felt happy, too.For example, once in a while we smell stale beer in my house. The only one that drank beer in my family was my dad. We say that he comes to check up on us. So, maybe Walt comes to visit just to check on how the park is being run.
As a guest, I had weird feeling when I went in Star Wars Launch Bay in Tomorrowland at Disneyland. When I exited Launch Bay, I remembered that the building used to be America Sings and that’s where a cast member died.
Honestly, coming across Walt’s ghost would be kind of cool. I would think he would be rather friendly. But another ghost giving helpful hints to custodians is cool too. Wow.
I definitely think Walt Is just watching over his Park
Thank you, Alex, for another gem of video. The fact that you created a third for the feedback you received from those who love your content shows how much you value your supporters. Sometimes I think people forget you are a person and not a service provider. I hope all inquiries submitted to you are with love and support of you as a cherished person.
Thank you so much, that means a lot to me...its true, a lot of people see me as a service provider, and they think my history videos are easy to make, that I can just pump them out any time I please...a lot of work goes into a single video, and yet the videos are only seen by a fraction of the amount of people I hope for...so the channel still remains a labor of love. And its nice to know when people appreciate it, like you have 🙂
@Alex I'm going to tell you a story and I've never spoken of this outside my immediate family. My sister Lori Long was a scheduler for attractions, very well liked and respected amongst her cast mates. She had a friend named Little Henry, he used to pilot the monorail and always started the attraction with, "Hello mouseketeers welcome to Disneyland" very much one of us Disney geeks as my friend John S. calls us. Well Henry passed in 2010, great guy, never was I going to hangout with him at the park, or so I thought.
I had to have surgery, and I was put under. Knocked out. Where I went was somewhere between a dream state or the other side, I can't tell you which. I found myself at Disneyland, complete with every detail we know. To my shock and his I ran into Henry, "What are you doing here" I explained my situation and we hung out walking and talking he asked "How's Lori" I said good I think. Henry smiled sadly as if he knew something, I didn't press it, I was just happy to see him. He looked better than I ever saw him. Apparently the Carousel of Progress is there, we went on it, and I faded out. When I came out of my surgery I told my wife and sister what happened, she was happy to here that Henry was happy. He always said to me "did you call your sister" he knew me.
6 months later Lori died had stage 4 cancer and passed away. I've never spoken of this to anybody outside of my immediate family but I thought you should know, that between a dream state and the other side there is a place that is exactly like the park.
Side note. Henry told me that somehow you could change the time of the park, you could go back to the 50s or any other time. This place exists Alex, it's there.
I'm sorry about your sister. But its nice to know that others on the other side still remember and are still concerned about the people they once knew. Thanks for telling me your story
Hey, Dan! I knew, worked closely with, and really loved your sister! She was at my wedding. I still think of her warmly. Thanks for sharing your experience here. ❌⭕️
as a cm currently a handful of my coworkers at riverbelle terrace mention their experiences and this series just validates all their stories 😭
You telling me this, validates mine as well!
I personally think Walt IS haunting the park. He loved Disneyland very much, and even said that "Disneyland will never be complete..." Maybe that's it, maybe that would be the reason (his unfinished business) he still remains, to see how his beloved park is evolving. Food for thought 😁
Thats what I mean though, is the park more important to him than his own family? Dont you think he would have rather be with them, than to wander alone for all eternity?
@@AlextheHistorian That's true, but who knows? He was known for wandering the park in life, checking on things, why not in death? The weird thing about this is, those other ghosts like the little girl and the boy and his mother, where did they come from? I mean, I can't think of a better place to spend eternity, but them being there seems very random. I know there were some deaths in the park, but have there ever been deaths of children?
Actually yes, children have died there, but not as a result of an accident or murder. On rare occasion a medical condition has killed children and adults alike. A cast member i knew was on-duty when a baby died of sudden infant death syndrome. Ive never seen someone die in the park, but I've seen someone suffer a heart attack, and I've seen another person have a seizure. So things happen through the years.
@@AlextheHistorian That's so spooky! 😅 By the way, we both have two things in common: we're both called Alex AND we're both cast members (I'm from the Paris division 🤩)
Thats awesome! Do you like working at Disneyland Paris?
I commented this story on another haunted Disneyland video too, but wanted to post here as well. If anyone else has stories, preferably Disneyland Hotel stories, i'd love to hear them! I only remember one instance that was weird but I don’t remember what area of the Disneyland hotel we were in that time. It’s possible it was the Bonita tower (which I’ve heard is haunted. It’s now called the Frontierland Tower I think?). We ended up there many times that we stayed at the hotel. This time, it was midnight or an hour or so after. We were all already in bed, my dad was just finishing up in the bathroom. We hear someone knocking pretty furiously on the door and it startled us because who the hell would come knocking at that hour? Dad looked out the peephole, he didn’t see anyone. He opened the door and looked out, no one. No one at the ends of the halls, nothing. That really shook me up and it was the first time I ever felt scared or remotely unsafe at Disneyland.
Bonita is now the Adventure tower. Bonita was also the oldest of the three towers and is notoriously haunted. Cast members at the front desk late at night will be phoned to bring extra pillows to certain rooms only to realize soon after the call ends that the room is unoccupied. Very haunted.
Thanks Alex I really enjoyed these ghost stories. Perfect for the Halloween season. So the last time I went to Disneyland I rode Space Mountain alone and mid way through the ride it stopped and they had to turn the lights on for a little bit so I took advantage of the light to look around never seen space Mountain with the lights on and to my right I felt a presence like someone was staring at me so I looked to my right but nothing/no one was there. It wasn't til weeks later I was browsing RUclips for Disneyland ghost stories that I heard that Space Mountain was haunted. Maybe it was that spirit sitting next to me
I watched part 1 and part 2 and I been getting the chills watching them 😖
I just watched your video on the story behind The Haunted Mansion (at Disneyland Resort) and loved it. Am glad I'm seeing this series (albeit, 2yrs after this uploaded). I never had the opportunity to go into the Golden Horseshoe. . . when I was a child, I think I wasn't interested because it wasn't a "ride". As an adult, I wanted to go to it, but I could never get in; I think it was because you needed a reservation and it was always full (no openings till much later in the day or evening when I would have already left the park). Now I wish I could go there to feel what you and other guests felt.
I wish every youtuber would tell stories like these 😔
Well there was that 18 year old who drowned in the rivers of America after hours. The country bear restaurant isn’t too far away.
Do I think Walt is haunting The Golden Horseshoe? Only his frozen head. Alas poor Timmy. I demand to know more about Timmy! This series is spooky and informative. The only thing missing was the campfire. I love it. Thanks a lot.
Hi Alex! I really enjoyed all three videos in your spooky fun series for Halloween time! I watched it three times. 👻 I especially liked the Haunted Mansion stories, and the last one of the disembodied voices on Main Street. Whoa! 👀 I agree. Most likely former cast members still hanging out at the park. All of your stories are great. And once again, thank you so much! This has been such a fun October treat! Happy Halloween to you and everyone! 🍂👻🍁🍂🎃🍁🍂👀🍁🍫
Thanks for the videos, man. I could listen to these stories all day!
Glad you enjoy it!
I am scared to go to bed now. Thanks Alex olus there’s creepy sound outside I don’t recognize.
To be a ghost doesn’t mean you had a bad death or a bad life.
this series has been so interesting to watch
Timmy is a ghost that haunts Disneyland theres a stain backstage of haunted mansion going down the ramp the stain cant b removed u can scrub it all u want that stain wont go away some castmembers say it's the planters up stairs out in the q the water is dripping but that's not where the stain came from whatever the case may be it cant b removed
Great video! I love hearing stories other than Mr. One Way and that sort of thing, hearing new stories is always exciting!
I worked at the park for 3 years, and would love to have had some supernatural experience, but alas, none at Disneyland. My current job, I hear someone that isn't there, from time to time. But, that's it, jobwise.
Hi Alex, another great video! I recently saw a documentary on Walt and they said Walt didn’t know about his cancer. That back in the day cancer was a certain death sentence so they would inform their closest family members and have them decide if they wanted to tell them. Some of the imagineers said if he’d know he probably would have trained people to truly take over his original Epcot ideas.
I also recently heard a pod cast you might enjoy.. it’s called called Disney Dad and Daughter and they had a psychic medium on one of their shows that claims he’s encountered Walt at the park.
Well actually the reason Walt didn't know he had cancer was because they didn't discover it until a month before he died. He had an old neck injury that bothered him so he went to go get x-rays taken. The x-rays happened to reveal the cancer in his lung. The doctors immediately informed Walt and scheduled him for surgery. Walt informed his family of the cancer and surgery. The surgery went well, they removed his lung. But it was too late, it spread to the other lung. They discovered the cancer November 2nd, 1966, he had surgery a few days later. He went back to the hospital for permanent stay November 20th, and he died in hospital on December 15th
Thanks for the reply and correct info. He passed so young, I always wonder how different the park or attractions would have been if he lived into the 1970s or 1980s. And especially how Walt Disney world would have turned out.
I wonder that too. I always wonder "what if he had just 5 more years?" ...things would be so different.
I love your channel keep up the great stuff!!
I didn't realize there was going to be a part three! I got so excited when I saw this just now!!!
I didn't know I would do a part 3 either 😅
Perfect timing! Scary movies are fine, but it's more fun when someone tells you a ghost story! I've heard rumors that people would leave the ashes of loved ones in Haunted Mansion & Pirates of the Caribbean.
Any truth to that?
It happened only once, and it was on the Haunted Mansion, but the story has been said so many times, and re-told by so many different people that it morphed into the narrative of "Many people dump ashes at Disneyland especially in Haunted Mansion" ...but it's only happened once. I've known many ride and show cast members of the years, especially in Haunted Mansion, but none of them have heard of any recent ash dumpings, not even the 3rd shift custodial or day custodial. And no one has reported it to Disney since the first time it happened.
@@AlextheHistorian 😄 Thanks for setting things straight! Keep cranking out the content, Alex! Meanwhile, I'm gonna rewatch your HM doc in celebration of Schpooky Season! ROCK ON YOUNG MAN, ROCK ON!!! 👍
I'm actually remaking that documentary right now with better music and updated narration, it will be published during this month.
@@AlextheHistorian Then I'm going to wait!!
Finally, I’ve been so excited for part 3
Thanks! I wasn't expecting a part 3 - but so glad you made one. Really enjoyed it!
I believe in Ghosts since I first heard about Queen Mary being haunted. Of course that was before you mentioned what thr Disney company did. However, I still think she is haunted because I had actual experience and I met a couple of people who had similar experience. And after hearing your stories, you can be sure that I believe them.
I had been wishing for a part 3 and here it is! So excited! Thanks, Alex! 🎃
Thanks for this! Love hearing these stories. Super fun and interesting. Keep the great content up!
I worked at the park for 15 years in various departments. I had *many* paranormal experiences (or whatever you want to label them) while there, including the Carousel of Progress building. There was definitely an entity there who moved keys, clipboards, etc. After America Sings closed but before it was rethemed to Innoventions, the two theaters that faced Tomorrowland were occasionally used for new hire orientations. More than once, I was alone in one of the theaters after teaching a class. I would be writing notes, gathering up my belongings, etc, but *always* felt like someone else was there to the extent that I would call out “Hello?” thinking a fellow instructor had returned to the theater, but there was no (live) person there. Just me. Twice, I set down my stuff in a small pile on one of the theater front row seats, only to have items go missing minutes later. Once, a park keyring was 8-9 rows back on the floor. I was completely alone. I was not the only Cast Member who had items moved around the room. I also had experiences in the Adventureland offices (the Golden Horseshoe building Alex mentions), the old administration building basement beneath Main Street, and several other spots. Now my daughter (who is also intuitive) works at the park and has had some very uneasy shifts in the dress-steaming-room upstairs inside Sleeping Beauty Castle, which is one of those after-the-fact cramped closets that are being used for other purposes that are everywhere at Disneyland. There is an aggressive entity who very audibly storms up the stairs and slams doors. *Many* Fantasyland Cast Members have heard a child laughing long after the park is clear of guests. Some of her coworkers refuse to do shifts in that room.
This series is awesome! We have enjoyed it greatly! Thank you! These were so fun this week!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You’re such a great storyteller, no matter the content!
Thank you!
Truly fascinating! I am glad you shared these.
Thank you for doing this. I just sort of stumbled on to your channel, and I know I will be back.
What I really like, is you didn't just regurgitate the the same stories we've all heard. Your videos were the first time I had ever heard about the Golden Horseshoe being haunted.
Thanks Bill! Glad you enjoyed it!
Love this series!! Thanks for sharing your's and your fellow castmember's stories!
Glad you like them!
Really enjoyed these stories. Thanks for sharing! :)
I LOVED this video series Alex! I know it is a year old but I just got a chace to watch all three parts and this was so facinating to watch. I love the videos you do. I would love for you to do a video on a more in depth look at "Timmy" and his "mother". That being said I truly enjoy your historical Disneyland videos. Fantastic work!
This has to be one of my favorite series you’ve done. Great job! The way you’ve presented all three videos, I can totally see why you were a Plaid!!
Thanks!
I can attest to the STRONG feeling of someone riding with me on the haunted mansion. I am being absolutely serious too! There is this strong energy of not sitting alone! This was also during a night parade so we basically walked onto the ride with no lines. It was so eerie. I immediately ran off. I was so scared. This has never happened to me in Disneyland. I’m so shocked by this experience I’ve googled to see if anyone else has experienced it.
I believe that "ghosts" or spirits, whatever they may be feed off of people's emotions, especially fear. They need A dark and weird place like dumpster rooms, storage closets or mirrored rooms (Golden Horseshoe etc). People have different experiences depending on their beliefs. I mean those who believe in ghosts dont always see them coz they're not scared perhaps? Anyway , good stuff. I've never seen a ghost at Disneyland, but I've always been aprehensive about Golden Horseshoe. I always feel like I have to "Get Out" of there. I have never ate there or seen Wally's show. I bought a funnel cake at Stagedoor once and the building seemed oppresive. Now I know why. There is a ghost in the closet above!
Love love this!! Thank you 😊
I have not been to Disney in over 10 years. But as a little girl in the 80s-90s, we’d go every year.
I got the creepiest feeling at the mansion.
(I’m writing this without seeing the mansion portion of the video, I paused it)
Outside of the mansion I felt watched, coming to the exit of the mansion the ghost lady (?) I always felt she was saying my name. Also coming out of pirates I felt that area had activity too.
Anyhoo
Carry on
Love these videos!!!
I wanna say I don't think Walt haunts his park as a ghost either, but more as a kind spirit which some people consider to be two different things. To me, a spirit is more of someone who looks after and takes care of people or things even in the after life. They can move on and typically do, but still visit often because as a spirit they still care and want to make sure family, friends, ect are doing alright. I think Walt likes to check in on his parks because he wants to see his place flourish and make sure things are being ran how he wanted it. So when he is in the park, he is simply checking in and making sure everyone and everything are going to his plan because they say, even when Walt isn't there they want cast members to treat the park like he is and I still think that moto still stands with his presence lurking every now and then.
As far as some of the other spirits, I can't say. I would say "Freddy" is a ghost who has attachment to the park, his job and the room he died in and probably either had regrets and can't move on or doesn't want to. The girl seems to be harder to figure out. Some people into paranormal seem to suggest we pick an age after death we most feel we fit and maybe that's the case here, but I don't know. Maybe she died early and was one of the few where her ashes got tosses into the park and so she stays. A lot of people, even now, throw the ashes of their loved ones into the park. You're not "supposed" to do it and can get into trouble, but people have in the past done so, specially on Haunted Mansion. So the girl and even the boy "Timmy" might just be those spirits or spirits who just love the park.
They also say Innovetion's building is haunted with a death of a former worker, but haven't seen much evidence or other real witness reports about it or then people "claiming" to hear screams or being touched.
Actually the ashes thing only happened once. The story was passed on through media so much that somehow the incident was mistaken for a commonly occurring thing
@@AlextheHistorian oh good to know! Least it was once.
This was so fun to watch, great job,as always Alex 😀💖👍
Thanks!
I'm really enjoying this series. Keep them coming (if you got them) :D
Lol, well like I said in the video, thats it, that's all I have. Theres nothing more.
@@AlextheHistorian yeah oooops I made this comment before starting the video. I had to subscribe! Good stuff!
Interesting videos! I used to work in Tomorrowland at Disneyland. We had less ghost stories over there compared to other parts of the park. I worked on Autopia and the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage. A number of coworkers on Autopia mentioned seeing a little girl wandering the tracks after closing time. One of my Nemo coworkers said that one time while driving a sub around empty, they could hear seats coming down and snapping back up. I found that one especially nerve-wracking because when you’re driving those things around, the lower half of your body is exposed to the interior of the sub and you can’t really see further down than your waist.
Nice series of stories. Thank you for sharing them.
Yes!!!! Lol Thank you so much! Your videos are amazing!! 😁
Thank you so much for this series Alex! This was so awesome! In the paranormal science community the ghosts that follow a routine like the living did are known as "residual haunts" or "residual energy". Ghosts that are the manifestation of the spirit of an individual are known as "intelligent haunt" or "intelligent energy". I would love to see if someone has ever gotten footage of the little girl in the "Golden Horshoe" on film or perhaps an EVP where the voice is mistakenly captured on an audio file. I hope you are adjusting well to your knew home and I really do love your content. Keep up the good work!
Thanks Seth!
I loved your stories, they were super entertaining and gave me some good chills. :) Thank you for sharing! These were great! I believe every one of them, although my beliefs on what ghosts actually are does differ from most peoples'.
I think suddenly dying only after 11 years of Disneyland would have been traumatic enough for the spirit of Walt Disney to have soul fragments left behind within his routines he had at the park. Leaving behind the smell of cigars could have been super comforting to his widow that had a tough time resuming old traditions Walt held dear and true to his heart. I would know as a young widow myself. Suddenly things that once may have even been bothersome in life become so cherished while grieving someone’s death. I know my late husband was accomplished and led a fruitful life and we were happy as a family, I don’t doubt that he has “crossed over” but there are moments I know bits and pieces of him are still very present in my life and my sons lives and things like this. Even people whom never knew him in life but only through our stories.
You never know about like that little girl, maybe her make a wish dream was going to Disneyland and that’s why a bit or piece of her spirit stays at Disneyland or something like that. Spirits visit me often, the spooky ones I literally say out loud enough with the creepy stuff and the creepy stuff dies down. I would love to have my hubs visit me at Disneyland… he loved, loved, loved Disneyland, we always had year passes. I miss him so much!
You should make this an ongoing thing ! Even if it’s not Disneyland . You should also explore other old historic haunted places around your area . Haunted videos are popular you would deff have the audience .
When you go down the path of making "haunted" stuff, you end up putting yourself in a corner that is hard to get out of. As interesting and popular as haunted history is, I have much bigger plans for the future. But also remember about this audience: they are here for anything and everything Disney. I tried doing other things on this channel, but those shows failed. I would need to start a new channel altogether.
Yeah I deff understand what you’re saying . even if it was a second channel . You’re a great narrater and very informative when it comes to explaining old history. I think it could go hand in hand .
Thanks!
These are wonderful! So fun. Any more stories for a part 4 and 5?? 😄 A series would be great!
these videos are so awesome! 👏
Glad you like them!
Lovin the stories!
Great stories. Thank you Alex.
Glad you like them!
You know, I've been watching your vids about the Queen Mary for a while, but now I'm finally poking around at your other vids. (Hence why you have so many comments on older vids from me. XD)
Ghost stories like this fascinate me. I used to work in a haunted hotel that was full of activity, and I could talk about things I experienced there all day. Nothing really scary (Well, except for that ONE time...) but just weird and odd events, that my coworkers and I grew used to after a while.
I always felt uncomfortable at the downstairs area of country bear. It creeped me out and I always felt like someone was there watching, just around a corner or behind something. The bathrooms there are always empty. Not many people go down there, it's always been that way even going way back to the early 80's. It's always cold down there, no matter how warm it is during the day.
Thank you for the great stories
Wow! Voices helping workers out on main street?
i love ghost stuff have a great weekend alex
Thanks Lauri! You too!
This was Walt's dream and constant determination to complete/perfect. I think otherwise as if someone who invested this much time, I would imagine Him there in spirit.
I was standing in line with my daughter for the Indiana Jones ride this past November. We were standing, facing each other while we were talking when something smacked the back of my head with an open palm. There was no one standing or walking behind me. My daughter even heard the smack and said what was that right at the same time I said something smacked me. We are people who have had many experiences like that throughout our lives, but the only one at Disneyland.
There is a picture of a ghostly child on the haunted mansion ride - a little boy in the Doom Buggy
There is a video of 'Mr One Way' my favourite story of him is someone said something to him and the man said the ride was an E Ticket ride - that gives you an idea the age of the ghost (you can tell your people what an E Ticket is)
There is two or three in the Tower of Terror as well that have been on film.
#3??? 😱Oh, c’mon, we want to here the story about “Timmy!?” C’mon! Great video! ❤️🎃
I believe Walt comes in Spirit to visit. Ghosts are lost souls. Also there is residual hauntings as a repetition of that energy like a loop of that occurrance. Spirits have crossed over but come back for visits. Not as a Ghost that is stuck. I have been an investigator for over 13 years. I did enjoy your videos. Thanks so much for sharing.
Hi Alex. Another great video
Thanks!
U welcome Alex ☺
I shared with you a real ghost story that happened to me i have other strange things happen while i was working in attractions hungry bear restrooms that i clean everytime i clean woman's restroom the lights go out on me i check lights and switch was off i turned back on about 10 mins the lights would go out again nobody was there with me
I worked in Entertainment at WDW homed at Magic Kingdom. Heard several Ghost stories, but one that stuck with me is this. I was working at Princess Fairytale hall. I was loading the rooms for the Princess' and we worked closely with attractions attendants. Well this night a new attendant bumped and she looked rough. It was near the end of the night so we were slowing up. I had time to ask her what was bothering her, and she told me this- She was working at "Mickey's Philharmagic" she was inside the theater while the show was running and she saw a man standing in the back of the room, leaning on the wall beside the last row of seats. She said he had a knee bent, with his foot on the wall, and was smoking. Of course she walked up to him to tell him he can't smoke in there. When she did, he looked at her and just disappeared. She was so freaked out she requested to be transfered. And that's how she got there.
Please make more of these I’m sad there’s only 3 parts
I can't, these were experiences that I and the people I knew, had. I haven't worked there in almost a decade. This was all there was to tell.
having worked twice at disney world yes there are MANY things that happen unexplained…not just disneyland either
To be honest, it's kind of fitting that the Haunted Mansion would be haunted
Alex, I think you should have a look at what "familiar spirits" are. Not a person but a spirit(s) that emulates a deceased person. An entity that is "familiar" with a person when he was still alive. I like your narration very much.
Almost every time I've been on the Haunted Mansion ride it has stopped when the doom buggy I was in was traveling around the seance circle. But it has been a long time, ( durring the year of a million dreams, I received mouse ears exiting Mickey's House in Toon Town) since I've had the money to go to the park.
I've been at HM when the Doom buggies stopped and always thought it was a mechanical glitch, but the last time I was at this ride (in the Anaheim park), just before it was my turn to grab a Doom buggy, the ride stopped so that a guest could transfer from their wheelchair into a buggy. It's way too hard / unsafe for someone with mobility issues to try to get into a moving Doom buggy, so the cast member who is overseeing this will stop the ride until the guest can get into the buggy then start it up again.
My mother was able to see spirits and for some reason she was terrified of that madame leota space. I mean, she would go into a state of panic and tell me to shut my eyes. She never told me why, but that area there really freaked her out. I think she was seeing, or at least feeling otherworld things there. BTW--The Space Mountain ghost has been debunked. Or, at least one of them. I saw a boy on the Roger Rabbit ride at Disneyland.
If Walt Disney unfinished business is staying with his park that might be why the supernatural things happen
please do a part 4 😭😭😭
You should make a series debunking or confirming some of these myths
Technically it would all be debunked one way or another. And my channel doesn't discuss death or ghosts, this was the first time I did it, and I left a lot of gorey details out. Im actually not interested in paranormal myths.
@@AlextheHistorian Yeah to be perfectly honest with you I don't happen to believe in paranormal concepts, I just thought it'd be cool to give it an objective basis especially with your expertise, idk I guess that's for the scientists to figure out. Either way, great content in general keep it up.
I didn't believe in ghosts until I started working at Disneyland, but even then, most if the origin stories just seem really strange. Now, I like a good paranormal story where its like, "the person died in an accident and haunts the place" but when the story goes something along the lines of: "they used to bury cats alive and now they've come back from the grave to look for the perfect cat"...or whatever weird thing people say...lol I just can't take it seriously. The ghosts I've experienced didn't seem to be haunting for a purpose...they were just there...residual things.
I heard the little girl at the Golden Horseshoe is Heather O'Rourke
😂😂😂 oh God lol
I just saw another haunting in disneyland on youtube and sometime shortly after walt died i think it was some casr members and possibly one of walts partner/brother who wwitnness his ghost smiling back at them in main street. Cast members alsk said that they believe walt haunts those streets, hearing his footssteps behind themand smells if cigs. Not to mention the cleaninng crew member who witness walts ghost. She was cleaning his den and turned off the lights 3 times and it would turn directly back.on after. She said she smelled cigs heard a mans voice saying "im still here."
This is weird, but I could listen to you talk all day.
In 2014 I was on holiday in the California Park visiting my friend who was a cast member there and she was working the ride that used to be The Carosel of Progress and then America Sings and when she worked it the ride it was Innoventions. Anyways when the park closed I was given permission to help out the cast members with closing and my friend who was working Innoventions asked for my help. She asked me if I could go and collect whatever it was she needed. Anyways that's what I did and where I had to go was where the stage area for America Sings used to be, I went there to get what she needed and as I got there I heard a female voice clear as day right next to me say "be careful"
I ran out and went straight to my friend and the other cast members and they told me that in 1974 a couple days after America Sings opened, a worker called Debbie Stone was working the last show of the night and she was crushed to death by the revolving wall and the stationery wall and since they cast members will hear a woman tell them to be careful. And they believe it to be Debbie. I also saw later that night the apparition of a blonde young woman standing in that area who I think was Debbie.
I'm surprised you didn't hear any stories about Debbie.
Not from anyone I knew, but there are 3rd party stories. Since I don't know those people, I couldn't trust whether they are truth tellers or not. Ive had friends that worked in that building but none have seen, heard, or felt anything out of the ordinary.
I would love to hear about Debbie !
I dont discuss Debbie on my channel.
Look up "America Sings", that's all that needs to be said.
I worked at the park for 15 years in various departments. I had *many* paranormal experiences (or whatever you want to label them) while there, including the Carousel of Progress building. There was definitely an entity there who moved keys, clipboards, etc. After America Sings closed but before it was rethemed to Innoventions, the two theaters that faced Tomorrowland were occasionally used for new hire orientations. More than once, I was alone in one of the theaters after teaching a class. I would be writing notes, gathering up my belongings, etc, but *always* felt like someone else was there to the extent that I would call out “Hello?” thinking a fellow instructor had returned to the the theater, but there was no (live) person there. Just me. Twice, I set down my stuff in a small pile on one of the theater front row seats, only to have items go missing minutes later. Once, a park keyring was 8-9 rows back on the floor. I was completely alone. I was not the only Cast Member who had items moved around the room. I also had experiences in the Adventureland offices (the Horseshoe building Alex mentions), the old administration building basement beneath Main Street, and several other spots. Now my daughter (who is also intuitive) works at the park and has had some very uneasy shifts in the dress-steaming-room upstairs inside Sleeping Beauty Castle, which is one of those after-the-fact cramped closets that are being used for other purposes that are everywhere at Disneyland. There is an aggressive entity who storms up the stairs and slams doors. *Many* Fantasyland Cast Members have heard a child laughing long after the park is clear of guests. Some of her coworkers refuse to do shifts in that room.
I was back stage going to restroom when I open the door the door freaking pulled out of my hand it freaks was weird
Former Cast Member of RBT/GHS here circa 2012
2012 to when?
I heard the pirates of the Caribbean’s is haunted, but I know for a fact that Peter pans adventure is i had got on that ride. Going towards the ending of that ride the ride just stops out of nowhere & all of a sudden the theme music for Peter Pan was still playing but it was playing backwards
Disney really needs to get rid of the spell book in the seance room as beautiful as it is there is something off about it the thing that is off about it is a real spell book that most likely contributes to the paranormal activity
No way would I want to walk the rides at the end of the night.
Alex at WDI we never heard or spoke of things like this in the parks. What became real issue was the acquisition of the Queen Mary when that deal was done with rather port properties there was all kinds of activity on the Queen Mary I went over and talk to some people who work there and they told me all kinds of stories that I have to believe because they have no reason not to be factual but the activity on the Queen Mary was becoming so extreme it made it into the board room of the Walt Disney Company of fortune 500 company as to what Are we going to do I think we’re flared it up was the fact that Disney was deciding what to do with the Queen Mary dump it or keep it also I think people tend to return to places that they have enjoy during their lives and in the case of these parts millions of people have come through there so perhaps Many would want to return
A lot of the "ghost" stories in the parks i find to be very embellished and sometimes outright made-up. But there are certainly places in the resorts that make me a believer.
👍👍👍👍👍
Tulpamancy 😎
tell netflix/disney to make a movie it’ll be lit
