Be sure to SUBSCRIBE and LIKE the video by giving it a thumbs up as this really helps our channel grow! There are a lot of familiar scenes in this version of the Haunted Mansion but it's also so different! Which version is your favorite? Disneyland CA, Disneyland Paris, Tokyo or WDW? Let us know!
Love that the Japanese version is pretty much the OG ride before all the refurbs and such. The only downside is no Hatbox Ghost and Floating Leota. But its still cool to see the original ride be kept very much to how it used to be in Disneyland and Disney World. That and the paint job/lighting is much more impressive and vivid in Tokyo Disney. One of the reasons why I will always love Japan with the dark rides there.
No wonder this gave me a very oldie feeling, like if they havent made any renovations since the 60's. And I gotta say, in certain ways is creepier than the ones in the USA.
Actually, Tokyo’s and MK’s Mansions were carbon copies before the latter was refurbished in 2007. DL’s Mansion does not have the Sinister 11 Portraits, a library, or a music room, but in the late 90s the invisible piano player was added to the Attic.
The company the ordered Disneyland Tokyo basically wanted a copy of the magic kingdom with a couple of Disneyland areas. They didn't want it to be different from what was in America because they wanted an American experience. That's why it's so faithful.
3:22 Anyone notice the addition of the drawing of the man? I wonder the story behind it :) Near the drawing is a suitcase with an H on it. Hmm 4:43 That’s amazing how Tokyo’s Haunted Mansion is the only one to have this face-popping-out portrait! It’s so cool 🙂
Hmmm, good eyes! Love your attention to detail. I'll have to do some research and find out about the drawing! Would love to hang that in my apartment! Thank you for watching :)
That's because this footage was taken during the haunted mansion story beyond event. Guests can participate in a challenge that involves looking for pages that fell out from a ghost book. The additional props and differing details were removed right after the event. The protruding face portrait you mentioned is a regular effect on the vanilla ride, not part of story beyond.
Fun fact about that portrait. Apparently it has to be repainted every week. They have been doing it for 43 years! This is all you need to know about why this is the best maintained Mansion
It’s not Constance it’s was the first character of the Bride : Emily. She is more a victime than the new one. But they had Constance necklaces and portrait. I prefere the beating heart bride than the axe one 😄 But maybe because of phantom manor in France, they want to makes a difference.
I have the greatest memory of this ride. My mom and I went on it together, and the seats were so small. We were squished in together...really squized I wasnt able to sit down all the way. And the funniest part, the lap bar/door didn't close. We rode the whole ride laughing and trying to hang on to the door. I was hilarious when we started slowly going downwards and the door was coming open, and I was sticking halfway out. I guess because the people are smaller in Japan the seats are not so spacious for two 6 feet tall americans 😂
I’m just gonna say it. This is my favorite version of the Haunted Mansion. That extra budget from the Oriental Land Company just makes the ride feel much more impressive to me. The lighting is better, the animatronics feel more animated, and it just feels much higher quality than the ones in America. If they were to add the Hatbox Ghost into the attic, then it would be perfect.
Yes! It's always fun to see what the different parks have to offer regarding classic Disney rides :). Thanks for watching! We'll be sure to upload more footage from other parks, so stay tuned.
You guys are so lucky to have these wonderful attractions in their mostly original forms without the crazy Disney fools censoring everything. We literally envy you for still having the last Splash Mountain, a ride very much loved here in the States. Don't let the Disney mess with your parks like they did here!
The scenery of The Haunted Mansion in Tokyo Disneyland is exactly the same as Disneyland (e.g. The Stretching Room, Ballroom and Seance along with the Cemetery and the Crypt, of course) and The Magic Kingdom (e.g. Music Room, Portrait Corridor, etc.) even though there's one little problem with it. I don't speak Japanese at all. Thank god that there's some English spoken as seen in the seance where Madame Leota appears on the scariest dark ride ever.
The Tokyo version is awesome! Its familiar but at the same time different :) but yes exactly like Disneyland. Be sure to check out our Pirates ride POVs as well and let me know what you think :) Thanks for watching
Whenever I'm feeling nostalgic I seek out a Tokyo ride-thru. (It's the mansion I grew up with (minus the voiceover), being raised in Florida.) (Sigh) Your filming was top-notch by the way. Absolutely my favorite that I've found. (Absolutely "favoriting" this. And absolutely BEAUTIFUL!)
Mark! Thank you. I love reading comments like this. It makes it worth editing these videos :) Please feel free to check out our other ride thru videos and tell me what you think.
The ride was just walk-on when we went. I found it interesting that the ghost host refers to himself with "atashi" (one of the many ways to say "I" in Japanese) which is actually perceived as more feminine.
Interesting! I love learning about different languages and walk-ons are the best! Hope to see more of your insights in the comments sections of our videos. Thank you for watching :)
@@jnsmi did he pronounce the w? I didn't really hear it properly and it sounded more like "atashi". It might be the sound quality on the attraction and maybe my very kindergarten japanese lol.
I have to admit, the darker the ride the scarier it is. That was more intense than Ive ever seen .But not so great for a video though. I only wish the camera man took Auto Focus off. It doesn't work well in the dark.Thanks for this vid. That was fun!
I think this is the Tokyo version of Constance….which in kinda lazy way of changing her Like they could have just put the portraits maybe throughout the mansion or maybe at least one in the attic
@@pink-a-palouza7888 Agreed, they should've just kept Constance and beating heart separate characters and added the wedding pictures in the portrait gallery, also Constance's wedding pictures in Tokyo doesn't change unfortunately, compared to Anaheim.
Looks like they added Constance's wedding photos from the U.S. parks surrounding the heart beating bride. I wonder what that implies to this mansion's story. Now we just need the Endless staircase and the Hatbox Ghost to make it feel like the definitive version.
I find it fascinating that the main color scheme in Japan is red as opposed to teal/blue in the United States. Anyone know if there's any significance to that?
Interesting they kept both Leotas in English when the narration as well as most character audio on other rides are Japanese. This is the first time I’ve seen the regular HM as it was the Halloween overlay on my first trip to Tokyo Disneyland.
In the California Haunted Mansion (1969), the stretching room is actually a lift. This is because of how the park is built. The show building is actually AWAY from the entrance, and you have to pass UNDERGROUND via a walkway to get to the loading area. The stretching room hides an actual elevator that takes you down. This walkway has the changing portraits and other things to look at. When the Haunted Mansion in Florida was built following Anaheim in 1971, they didn't need this, so the stretching room is just a room, and when it opens it deposits you right at the loading bay. Because of this, the elements from the walk-through portion were moved to be part of the ride itself - namely, the portrait hallway and the library which acts as a corner into other scenes. The ride ascent into the second floor also comes later VS the California version. Japan pretty much took the plans wholesale from the Florida version, but as of now, they have NOT updated ride elements to match, which is why the Florida one has some updated scenes and tech. You will also note that 'little Leota' at the end is also moved from beside the travellator up to above the exit gate in the Japan/Florida versions.
@@yesnt8941 Incorrect. California's Haunted Mansion opened in 1969 and Florida's opened in 1971. In addition, The Magic Kingdom in Anaheim California opened wholly in 1955, whereas Florida was also 1971 with the Haunted Mansion as an opening day attraction.
The stretching room wasn't a cleverly disguised elevator to take guests down but instead at TDL and WDW where space is less an issue, the ceiling is raised instead.
Have to be honest... Kinda disappointed. "New 4k enhanced, blah blah blah". I expected a high qualitly well lit video. Idk why tho? It is a "DARK RIDE" AFTER ALL. THANKS!
i went here a couple weeks ago and i was kind of terrified. so i joked around with my cousin on the changing portrait and said : "he took man im dead too seriously"
The ride is in its story beyond overlay where they add a bunch of details to the ride that aren't in there normally. There's also an activity where guests can look for lost pages from the ghost registry. Also, all the effects here work better than the ones in america and paris

Only things that they remove is the pop up ghost sounds in the graveyard. But at least mr la da audible
I havent been to other disneylands in a while, but how did they refurbish the haunted mansions? Did they make it less ominous?
I think most people would rather have the original stationary Leota and no hatbox ghost in exchange for everything left untouched.
Actually, Tokyo’s and MK’s Mansions were carbon copies before the latter was refurbished in 2007. DL’s Mansion does not have the Sinister 11 Portraits, a library, or a music room, but in the late 90s the invisible piano player was added to the Attic.
wonderful how you can actually SEE most of the effects and props in this version
VS whatever is going on in WDW
had to squint the whole time
I love that it's so faithful to the original, this is the color scheme it was opened with, and details lke the attic.
Love the attic scenes! Some of my favorites. Thank you for watching!

It delights me that it has the old Constance Bride than the animated one in the US parks!

I think she’s just called the Beating Heart Bride.

9/10. It'd definitely be a 10 if Hattie was added.
@@HarryRollisProductions But, of course, in the damn attic this time!

I never noticed that walking book in the library. It's so cool.
This version is nearly the same as the original before enhancements. Very cool!!
I kinda feel bad for the skinny ass dog

In Japanese, saying "Watashi" as a boy is a more polite way of saying "i" than Boku

I really miss this iteration of the ride. Even got an appearance from Purpley Shroud (in blue).

I love that the Beating Heart Bride ❤ is still at this one. I miss her so much in the American versions.
Why does Florida and Japan have additional characters in their mansions like the portrait in the foyer and the portraits in the hallway?
Florida is the original mansion (and park) so its more cali is missing stuff lol

very much prefer the OG animatronic hitchhiker reflections, as well
Welcome back, foolish mortals…
The stretching room wasn't a cleverly disguised elevator to take guests down but instead at TDL and WDW where space is less an issue, the ceiling is raised instead.
I would have been nice if they Japanese mansion was styled after traditional Japanese architecture instead of what Florida did.
This looks so beautifully done but I have a question. So is the hatbox ghost only available in California?
For now yes, but he will be in wdw soon
Wow they kept it really old school...The scream audio in tack for the grave popper and the old school bride before all the upgrades.
Are spiders gone?
I wish i went in that haunted mansion ride but it was closed when i went there.
The stretching room is still here.
This is a duplicate of florida but has many differences.
That was awesome
So freaking cool!😊❤
Thanks for watching! :)
I miss the giant spiders
This ride speaks a few english.
When was this taken? Is the mask mandate in effect???
Probably this year. There has never been a mask mandate here, people are just contentious of others, so many still wear them.
Is it just me, or do the animatronics have more detailed movement?
The animatronics at Tokyo Disney are usually more up to date and also very well maintained. Love Tokyo Disney! Thanks for commenting :)
Have to be honest...
Kinda disappointed. "New 4k enhanced, blah blah blah". I expected a high qualitly well lit video. Idk why tho? It is a "DARK RIDE" AFTER ALL.
THANKS!
i went here a couple weeks ago and i was kind of terrified. so i joked around with my cousin on the changing portrait and said : "he took man im dead too seriously"
That's smart! It's a good idea to make jokes when you're scared! :) Thank you for watching!
