  • In this video, we take a look at Marc Davis' cut "Adventure House" project from the mid-1970's, as well as it's possible connection to a few of the scenes/effects from The Haunted Mansion.
    Almost the entirety of the research and background information in this video came from Foxxfur's article on "Passport2Dreams". Please check out the original article!

    Pretty rare someone comes up with some Disney history I haven't heard of or read about at one time or another. I wish we could have seen all of Marc Davis's ideas realized.

    I still love these old walkthrough attraction ideas. It sounds so interactive and fun! I wish they would make some of these.

    This would've been fascinating and could've drawn more guests to Fort Wilderness

    Possibly inspiration also for Mystic Manor ?

    Really sad this wasn’t made, looks really cool.
    Especially since it could’ve been the closest we got to the original walkthrough concept of Haunted Mansion (which I always wished I could experience in an alternate dimension or something, love the art of that).
    Ah well, at least we have
    wait, does Disney actually have any walkthrough attractions?

    • @hotaru8309
      @hotaru8309 3 года назад +2

      They did. An abandoned castle tour and in Tokyo Disney, the Black Cauldron attraction.
      Now, Epcot has the most similar to a walk through experience last I visited and looked into it.
      Also, Disneyland Paris has a lighter version of the Alice and Wonderland walkthrough in their hedge maze. There could be more hidden non-US walkthroughs, but so many have been abandoned or even destroyed like ToonTown with interactive features and character houses full of tricks, motion, and surprises.

    This is great! I've actually never heard of the concept at all, so I'm surprised. This is an area where WDW is totally under-utilized. With all that space and those resorts, you would think that the resort would be rife with little, what I call, "nook and cranny" attractions that reward visitors with little extras and surprises which really elevate the entire experience. The old Train in Fort Wilderness, and of course, Discovery Island were along these lines. People love delightful surprises and I wish Disney would invest in really plussing the resort infrastructure as a whole like they do their marquee attractions.

    Thank you for the thourough description and blueprints/concept art as well as credit given throughout and the link to a more obscure(smaller platform), but incredibly well made resource.
    These are wonderful and respectable touches and it's nice to have someone willing to through the extra length to give proper citation and generally treat the involved parties well.

    The design of the outside looks like Foster’s home for imaginary friends

    Nothing beats great synthesis of sources to corroborate a pattern. Excellent work again, Jack!

    The lobby and foyer design remind me of the opening of Tower (the Florida version). The rest of the house, the supernatural/silly tour element seem almost inseparable from Mystic Manor. Even the external facade seems more reminiscent of the Manor than the Mansion.

    Who knows? It may find its way into a Disney park yet??!!!?? Looks really interesting.

  • @Ryan-vl2nn
    @Ryan-vl2nn 5 месяцев назад

    Sounds interesting. Being that there’s definite Disney lore that connects the Haunted Mansion to the Pirate’s of the Caribbean as well as the Jungle Cruise. All attractions connected via the Adventurers Club. Or something to that effect. I forget it’s actual official naming.
    Also just wanted to say that it’s refreshing to get an unbiased, non-Disneyphile obsessed account of the park and its fascinating history.

    I feel like this eventually turned into the Mystic Manor in Hong Kong Disneyland. The look of the house is very similar and also there is a lot of ideas from here that made it into that ride.

    I second Cutelatinguy2's thought that the facade closely resembles that of Mystic Manor in Hong Kong Disneyland.

    Another great video!! however I'm mordibly curious did you purposely avoid calling them weatherc*cks for youtube reasons lol?

      Jake Krause weathervane is what they are called in my part of the US. Never heard of a weathercock.

    • @RobertMungo
      @RobertMungo 4 года назад +3

      Weather Vane is by far the more popular term as it covers those that are rooster shaped and those that aren’t. It also doesn’t have a word that can be misconstrued as rude in it. If you look at The Haunted Mansion, the weather vane is shaped like a ship, so it’d be weird call it a weathercock. Even on the Adventure House, a few are hen shaped which, while closer than a sailing ship, still aren’t roosters.

      Robert Mungo must not be a Jeathro Tull fan.

    • @RobertMungo
      @RobertMungo 4 года назад +3

      Jake Krause can’t say that I am, and if this is some sort of reference, then you must not be a fan of good references.

    • @Blatsen

      I’ve never heard of a rooster shaped weather vane being called a weathercock. I’ve also never heard of Jeathro Tull.
      Is weathercock perhaps regional or generational terminology? I’m 40 and either have lived or spent most of my time in Central and Southern Illinois and St. Louis.
      These are both weird, obscure references as far as I’m concerned.
