About the ashes scattering, The park has to literally vacuum around the rides to clean out the ashes because it's not regarded as safe, so in the end, the ashes end up in the trashcan
I’ve heard they have a special vacuum they have to use to get the ashes. It’s unfortunate that people keep doing this, especially since the ashes of their loved one isn’t actually staying on the ride.
It's also against Disneyland rules. You can be kicked out for doing it.
This. You might as well save yourself the money and effort and just toss your loved one's remains straight into the dumpster.
@@lavahead146 true, it's called a HEPA vacuum , it gave its name to the"HEPA code" cast members used to flag the scattering
So, if I can get my ashes compressed into a rock, I’ll get a loved one to just, toss my ash-rock into one of the gardens. That’ll be good enough.
OR!! Toss my ashes thru the window of someone I HATE.
As an ex-cast member, I can confirm that people attempt to scatter ashes of their loved ones at the park.
Please don't. They just get vacuumed up or washed down a drain.
My wife and I wanted ours scattered on a Florida beach. Down a drain at DisneyWorld would eventually get you in the ocean.
That's what I was thinking.
Golf courses are popular for ashes. I am sure they get caught up in the grass though.
So what? do you really think that people don't understand that ashes are washed away regardless of where they are? why is it always the ex cast members that comment everywhere "aS aN eX cAsT meMbEr" nobody cares, Brenda.
As a former Mansion Cast Member, agree. Mansion gets them a lot, and it requires shutting the ride down for cleaning.
“We’re childless women, and we’re here to make the children cry!” 😂😂😂😂 I forgot about that meme
Supposing someone DID have their head frozen until a cure could be found for whatever disease killed them, how do they plan on finding a cure for decapitation?
Fallout had the right idea, just stick it in a robot lol
Touche!
You don't. Cryonics is a scam.
Excellent Question! LOL
@@dannydavis8889 he sounds a bit crazy
Finally, a Disney sequel that doesn't suck.
😂❤️
😃😂🤣
I have children but totally liked this
LOL! Well played! ^_~
😂😂😂
I did a high school project I’d named “Dark Disney” and featured some of the things Caitlin talks about. After class I had multiple classmates go up to me and say that I had ruined Disney for them
Goal achieved!
Star Wars Disney ruined Disney for me
You are the only thing standing between Disney and total monopoly.
Hooray!
Funny, this stuff has saved Disney too me
Walt: we’re going to bring ghosts from all over the world!
Tourists: we’ve got you covered :dumps ashes:
I am actually shook about Disney trying to trademark Day of The Dead. How freaking dare they. That's like if they tried to trademark Christmas. You seriously can't do that.
seriously though. kind of disrespectful to the culture too
I'm pretty sure Mariah Carrey did that one
Doesn't Disney own Christmas already? Isn't Santa Claus a cast member? Aren't polar bears and Coca-Cola Disney? What about the North Pole? Space? I'm not too sure what you can and can't do anymore if you have no morals, and unlimited money, power, connections...magic.
it’s like that time godiva chocolate sued the tiny english town where the lady godiva myth and festivities come from for trademark infringement
Disney already owns Christmas.
The catacombs would have been an amazing attraction!!!
I sooo agree!!!!
My brother worked at Disneyland in 69 and the employees got to all go on the Haunted house 🏠 ride before it opened. They could take one guest and my mother made him take me. 😈 I was 14 and bwahaha it was great and I was on it before the public💜😈😈😈💜
They are there. Just not open to public. Reserved for *certain elite rituals*
I'm french, they are historically interesting but not that creepy
Yesss !!! ❤️😊
okay i've changed my mind on what I want done with my body after I die...I want to be a skeleton pirate at disneyland
I AM IIIIIIIN.👍
Yaaaar!
I heard that one of the skeletons in the Pirates ride is real. Not sure if it's true.
@@happyfacefries used to be several as mentioned in the video. over time they were removed, but supposedly there are a few bits and pieces left over. seems creepy and wrong by today's standards, but you have to put yourself in the mindset of the era and the idea of death was a bit different.
fun fact: the skeletons in the pool scene from 'poltergeist' were real, too. even then it was very expensive to make fake skeletons, so they dressed real ones up.
@@manlymcstud8588 Plus the fact mentioned in the video that skeletons at the time looked blatantly fake, so getting a real skeleton was the next best thing. So not only was it expensive to get/make fake skeletons back then, they essentially had the same quality as plastic skeletons Americans nowadays use as decoration for Halloween, if not even less "realistic", yikes...
Haunted Mansion’s doom buggies move continuously unless a guest needs more time to get off the ride, so you were likely “stuck” because a rider was being helped off of or onto a wheelchair. Has happened to me every time I’ve gone on Haunted Mansion in CA or FL. It was built before physical disabilities were considered in ride design.
I’ve been stuck on it plenty of times as well. It’s not a true Disney trip unless you get stuck on a ride!
@@lavahead146 we once got stuck on Splash Mountain right before the fireworks show and ended up seeing it just by about 4 inches at the end of a tunnel 🤣🤣🤣 it was a good year
Chrissy Mitchell I was stuck there too.
We had to stop before for my grandma who has really bad knees. The cast members were so kind to us and helpful.
Yup! I was coming to the comments to say this exactly. The conveyor belt and disabilities don't always mix. They will stop the belt for wheelchairs, walkers, or even unsteady folks just on canes, to ensure no one takes a tumble and everyone makes it safely into their buggy by the time the buggy reaches the end of the platform and goes into the ride. Fun fact: If you are loading or unloading from a wheelchair, you'll do that at the entrance both times, which means taking a STEEP fucking hill much like the one you were stuck on from the exit platform back to the entrance platform, only this time facing *forward.* It's an interesting sensation if you have good trunk stability but if you're riding shotgun with a disabled friend who has any issues with that (ex. electric wheelchair users who rely on a chest strap) be prepared to help if they start folding forward with gravity. I'm almost certain there was no way she was going to fall out, because the lap bars are very secure, but it doesn't necessarily FEEL like that going downhill with the lap bar providing no postural support.
as an ex cast member: DO NOT DUMP YOUR DECEASED FAMILY MEMBERS ASHES INTO THE RIDES OR PARK. DON'T BE LIKE THAT
the shit guests do is astounding. after I left I was so disillusioned with humanity
Does it happen often? What did you do if you caught someone trying to dump the ashes?
What the fff tell me more
Aubrie Cottle they get thrown in the trash after being vacuumed up.
Aubrie Cottle what Tiffany said. Its also considered hazardous so if people do that on attractions we have to evacuate and shut the ride down. So not only will ur loved one be trash but you just inconvenienced and pissed off a ton of people.
When I went to Disney World in 2000, the trolly driver told us that Walt was frozen and still there, waiting to be unfrozen and woken up when the time was right. So Disney themselves had a role in passing that rumor around.
No. He didn't. And if he did he was fired shortly after his manager found out about it.
@@withonelook1985 yes he did, I swear on my life.
@@Rainy..Day. I believe you. Used to work in an amusement park myself, and hoo boy, just because you're not supposed to do something doesn't mean everyone abides
Ok Coco is one of my favorite movies. I cannot believe they tried to steal the day of the dead phrase. That's just shameful.
It went to the point of Disney facing a lawsuit so large they wouldn't have survived. I love happy endings❤
@@leventdhiver are you kidding!!! That is so shameful!!! Why not rip off Christmas or Easter?! Shame on Disney!!
@@af1067 those are know world wide, Dia de muertos is a new freak show for them, and apart from Catrinas (beautifully embellished skulls or skull-like makeup) the word don't know or care to know what's it truly about. Anyway the ONU (the UNESCO to be precise) stepped in, accused them of trying to over take intangible heritage of humanity and uncle Disney run away and tried to mask it up as "respectfully honoring Latin culture" "we even spend some years in Oaxaca learning"... Oh the sacrifices they did to sell just a few millions.
@@af1067 P.S. their big "withe supremacist" presentation card is that they forced the class separation view they have, along with migration policies in the prehispanic Underworld. The Mictlan has nothing of that and Latin heaven does not include border patrol. Fuck Coco and it's segregation crap. We even organize big communal offerings to the forgotten ones, the victims of big natural disasters, the missing and the unidentified, the lost in action, the ones homophobia/transphobia tuck away, the prehispanic ancestors, you name it. Some groups have their especially reserved day: children and mothers that perished during labor, violent or sudden deaths, unbaptized infants, and the rest. Everyone has a place to go and be welcomed.
@@leventdhiver oh my goodness I had no idea. Thank you for educating me on this subject!!! I always loved different cultures thoughts and traditions. I respect how difficult it is for people to show their pride in their heritage. I am Aniwaya tribe, Native American. I understand people trying to brush other heritage under the carpet. Thank you for your knowledge.
As a former 'castmember', I appreciate all the research Caitlin and her group has done. You'd be surprised how many rumors we have to sweep around. Also, if I remember correctly after revamping the Pirates ride to add in Captain Jack animatronics, they sent in a forensics team to test all the skeletons, bones, skulls, ect. for human DNA. There's no really human remains left in there except when crazy fans try to throw ashes on the ride. Which, PLEASE DON'T. The ride has to get shut down and the ashes dealt with and it's a big arse hassle for everyone working there and just ticks everyone off. If your loved one loved Disney that much get them a nice Disney urn or something.
Donates body to science.
Ends up as a Disneyland attraction.
Truth_is_the _new_hate for some weird reason I would be thrilled with this happening to me
I want to give my body to Hollywood so they can blow it up
@@maddiepaddy2608 same,then after that shoot me into the sun
@@Attackontrashcan I think you can buy acres of the moon. Could you bury a coffin??
I think being an attraction after death would be awesome.
The theory of Disney’s Frozen Head- well people just need to Let It Go
😂😂😂😂🖤🖤🖤🖤👏👏👏👏
haaahahahahahaha yess very good :)
Get out... xD
Genius LOL
You did not 💀💀💀💀💀💀
4:26: "Stuck in a profoundly liminal space between life and death."
You've basically been in the Disney Purgatory.
Former cast member here:
Please don’t scatter your love ones ashes inside the attractions. You just end up causing an hours long breakdown while custodial vacuna out your love one who is sent to the trash. Trust me on this, it’s not fun telling people the ride is broken down over that.
Oh my God I was expecting at least another week until the next part of this series-Death Mother, you are treating us well this week!
Me too! I was like "Christmas has come early!" lol
For real! ♥️♥️♥️
I strongly suspect it has something to do with calling out the new "family friendly videos" policy RUclips is rolling around. These videos, technically, will be considered children's content under the new policy. Either way, these are awesome
I'd love to hear what ghost stories you've found in the parks.
As a castmember I've seen the parks empty at closing, it's magical and eerie. The music eventually stops. Cats come out the bushes casually like they own the place. There's only room for 2 mice at the parks.
I've heard of the hanging man in small world.. but the only experience I've had first hand was at the contemporary. I was walking from my room to the concierge/fridge for some chocolate milk (because 3am nightmares) and I dont know if it was my exhaustion or the previous nightmare I had but I kept hearing a child's scream followed by a thud. I looked over the edge of the walkway and didnt see anything so I went back to my room (albeit very quickly) since then I dont mess with spirits or ghosts and I always thought they were a possibility after that.
Now that's cool. I'd like that.
i heard the roman colosseum used to be infested with cats, too.
I met Caitlin at a lecture and book signing at The Boston Public Library in September and she was so nice. Somehow she’s even cooler in person. It’s fun being a deathling 💀
Jstarr524 my brother met her before she became famous, but that’s cool you got to see her at that book signing.
I lost my mother on March 26, 2015 after five months of being her 24/7 carer while she was at home in palliative care and about a year later I stumbled upon your channel. Your videos have helped me an insane amount with processing her passing and coming to terms with it. There are no words that would be sufficient to express how thankful I am. All I can really say is thank you, and I know that will never be enough.
It Has Helped Me Too!!
A COMPUTER PROGRAM made your body. So you may become alive very now and then
I really wish they had gone through with the Secret Catacombs. That sounds AWESOME.
I got stuck on the It's a Small World ride at Disneyworld. My sanity nearly cracked hearing that song over and over again for thirty minutes straight.
I refused to go into Small World for the exact same reason. No.thank.you.
My mom loves it; I just sit there thinking of the music video for "Invincible" by Muse the whole time (it features a twisted ride inspired by It's A Small World except it's a jungle where everything is eating each other).
I got trapped on it too! It was more traumatizing than the time the airplane I was on got struck by lightning (coincidentally on my way home from Disney World).
My grandmother died today, thanks to you I had the courage to help dress her and even helped carry her into the coffin. Thank you so much for everything!❤️
I'm so sorry for your loss..
Hope you’re having a great day today!
I watched her constantly after I lost my Dad last summer...I’m only 26 and I always thought I’d be in my 50s or 60s before I’d ever have to think about preparing for his funeral.
I had lost my only surviving grandparents last year also and I completely agree that it helps watching her videos and makes it seem pretty natural and not so scary. So sorry for your loss and hope you have a great weekend.
Much love and peace!
You're very brave! Well done, it must have really helped you with the healing process. Your granny is proud of you😉
Im three months late, but I just wanted to say Im so sorry for your loss. And how awesome that you actually took part in sending her to the next place, with your own hands. I dont know if I can do that when the time comes, but your example is encouraging. Thanks for sharing it.
Bless your heart!
Cast Member here: Haunted Mansion is the lamest thing ever when the lights are on so we can clean inside
That completely checks out
Same for space mountain
A friend in maintenance said it was pretty creepy when the animation was on.
I thought cast member weren’t supposed to reveal that they’re cast members? Idk but every “creepy” things aren’t creepy when the lights are on.
Happy and Healthy With Marie technically not, but I’m on a RUclips account and no one knows who I actually am :) and sadly Disney parks are closed right now due to the pandemic
The reason they stop the ride all the time on The Haunted Mansion is to let people who need to transfer from a wheelchair into a ride vehicle 🙂 It’s not broken!
"If there's no real skulls, I'm gonna flip over the boat" Haha
i’m convinced that this series is just an excuse for Caitlin to show us how fun her vacation was lmfaooo
Lol! Ditto kiddo
I'm okay with it. She is hilarious.
Tax write off 😂
Hahaha
When the haunted mansion ride stops, it's usually because they're stopping the cars to load an elderly or special needs guest. Also if you look up while in the entry elevator during the lightning, you can still see the sea captain hanging from a rope.
We were there for a long time! But if that was the situation obviously not a problem to wait.
@@AskAMortician It happens all the time 🤷♀️
It's not the sea captain. It's the Ghost Host.
Actually not a bad ride to be stuck in! Boy I need help
Nothing wrong with sitting in Limbo!
Sings: "M-U-E! R-T-O! M-O-U-S-E! Muerto Mouse! Muerto Mouse! ...."
I just watched Full Metal Jacket for the millionth time on tv last night, and was imagining the part where they're marching back through the fields singing Micky Mouse being replaced by Muerto Mouse. Would've worked better in war time I suppose!
We deathlings understand muerto mouse..
Who's the leader of the band
A friend to you and me
M U E R T O M O U S E
Damnit. Now I will think about this if I ever hear the club song. Lol
Here's another thing you can sing to this tune: "J-E-S, U-S-C, H-R-I-S-T". Needless to say, you might wanna be careful of your audience should you choose to share. ;D
Okay but Jean Lafitte is such an interesting historical figure that deserves much more recognition for being an absolute badass rebel pirate captain and I highly recommend reading up on him. I guarantee you will not regret learning about him.
Ofhand Disney Dalin voice: its _JEAN LAFITTE!_
i am no disney fan but i love the batshit insane stories revolving around it
Now that's I see her talking about rides, imagine an Ask A Mortician and Defunctland crossover...
You're welcome.
I would love that tbh
I am here for that!
YES PLEASE
Top 10 theme park deaths! i would love that!
The moment she mentions Jean Laffete I couldn’t help but think of offhand Disney!
"Child-less"? No darling, we're "Child-FREE"!
Stop child shaming me! You and your perfect child free life. How I envy you so. (I am totally kidding btw)
Is it wrong to thank God for that in some moments? ha ha
@@Error_404_Account_Deleted Yes.
@@sheep1ewe It is never wrong to thank big G for blessings.
Some people may refer to babies as blessings. Those people are dumb and liars.
@@joshwalla7 Ha ha, sometine i think so... But i guess it would also be the end of humanity, litterary...
Are we not going to talk about how AWESOME that catacombs attraction could have been? I'm so mad it doesn't exist, I would have LOVED that
Saaaame! Ah well, at least there's Paris
I actually have a great dislike of the Disney company for several reasons, and now I can add that whole trying to trademark"Day of the Dead" and "Dia de los Muertos" ridiculousness.
Disney was once about good clean fun, but now it's like all the other big corporations whose single goal is to richen the stockholders above all else.
I remember hearing about it and I was EXTREMELY pissed off. You can’t trademark a holiday and part a culture. It’s gross. Unfortunately Disney doesn’t care.
RIP ollie jones....
@@amandarobinson7802 Yeah, these videos have nothing on the background history of Walt Disney, nobody read this article unless you want to hate Disney forever: www.pastemagazine.com/politics/walt-disney/walt-the-quasi-nazi-the-fascist-history-of-disney/
@Milena Shvedova That is a line from “Springtime For Hitler”, the play within a play from “The Producers”.
It would be cool if one day they reconsider the catacombs.
The chance of that is small since people are too nitpicky today they would get a lot of complains that it doesn't belong in Disneyland. It would be great especially in Disneyland Paris but those nitpicky people can ruin it in just a call of 100.
You had me at "We're here to make the children cry!".
I found my people

Caitlin, did anyone recognize you at Disneyland? To me, you'd be the ULTIMATE LA-area celebrity sighting.
LOL I doubt it!
Dylan Menguy is fan girl
5:48 That would've been so interesting, I wish they'd followed through made that addition. Catacombs are fascinating.
Kenni Cumberbatch agreed!
Trust me, a lot of Disney fans-- especially Dallin/Offhand Disney wish that. I'd suggest watching some Disney RUclips to discover more attractions that were never built.
Totally agree!!
I love how she treats it like the haunted mansion ride just one day magically appeared in the park
I used to be scared of the Haunted Mansion when I was little but now I absolutely love it. I love the macabre but whimsical feel to it. Definitely makes it “death positive”. 😊
As a kid, I was so disappointed that "Disney On Ice" had nothing to do with Walt's noggin...
Mute that Bozo Disney had children, "THE DISNEY SPIRIT lives on" !!!....
It was 69-70 My Dad took us to Dizzy land that's what he called it. Drove from San Francisco area. I was so pumped. I was going to ride the Matterhorn. Those fuckers wouldn't let me on it.Said too small. I hate Dizzy land.
this morning my dad told me to watch this video. i said "dad, ive been subbed to caitlin for about a decade" :)
Awww you have a deathling papa!
A family of Deathling!
The last video played ads, I was sad when this 1 didn't. There is Nothing undesirable, or taboo, about talking about death, and this channel should be recognized, and paid, for being the best at approaching the subject in an informative and humorous way.
Kawanna Hardy it did for me! 👍🏻 (I watched both of them, maybe we can share?)
I got ads. Looks like it was fixed?
“Wawawawa-wawawa-wawawawa.”

Responses coming OUT of the INPUT part of the 'phone, I couldn't help but notice...
thoughtengine you’ve lost me.
Reminds me of the Peanuts
I'd love to see an episode on cryonics.
I just watched the short film by The Atlantic on a cryonics company, and they seemed both pretty weird and a bit scammy. They were shown putting a "patient" into storage who had been hurriedly frozen off-site by who knows what unsuitable method and was delivered in an unrefrigerated van, packed in dry ice, without the blood being removed or anything.
Even if their theories have any truth in them, there's no chance this body would be remotely viable to be reanimated by any stretch of the imagination, but they still took the money and packed him away anyway.
I've also heard of people being frozen head-only despite paying for full-body. It seems like a pretty fishy industry to me and I'd be fascinated to know more.
I’m glad she said central and south american too
My abuela celebrates día de los muertos in el salvador too
Yes, l have always been fascinated by this celebration.
Who doesn’t love TinkerCaitlin flying around
I like Caity-bell. Little Caity-bell needs her own film.
Yeah, that was hilarious. I skipped back to that part right away. How clever of her to think of that. ☺
I’m not afraid to die. I’m afraid to abandon my small children as this world is a cruel place.
Exactly why I chose to have none.
And don’t forget their children as well
And that is why we make wills and designate Guardians for children in the event of an accident or an emergency, my sister and her husband have 8 planned in the event of a natural disaster. I think that's a bit excessive personally but at least one is a good idea and have it notarized
I think that's every parents fear. I'm a parent myself and feel the same way
*ok 8 sounds like alot but 6 of them are family members before you think they're too crazy 😅* lol
The Nightmare Before Christmas HM ride is the one ride I would LOVE to be stuck in! I'm glad you mention the Day of the Dead appropriation. As a Latina, I feel the same as your friend. I love Coco. Easily my favorite Pixar film. I was so afraid they would mess up my culture, but they didn't. However, what Disney did was inexcusable. Trying to own a holiday from any culture is despicable and I'm glad it was stopped.
Ooooo Dark rides my favorite the "Escape from Pompeii." In Pennsylvania. If you ever wanted to feel like you were being Liquidified by a Volcano circa 79AD I recommend it.
HOLD ON. At the Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Virginia we ALSO have an Escape from Pompeii dark ride! It's awesome. I can't believe there's another one. I can't find anything about the one in Pennsylvania online though, so I'm wondering which park? (Watch as I comment a full year later lol.)
I love the phone call: "wah-wah-wah-wa DEATH! wah-wah-wah-wa DEATH!"
I was looking for this comment, my favourite part too!
Disney:
Caitlin: death :)
Fun and Nostalgia: exists
Caitlyn and Sarah: we are here to ruin it all for you with DEATH
@@jason_man more like improve 🌚

I remember having an entire (very serious) discussion about Walt Disney’s cryogenically frozen head in my biochemistry class at 7:30 in the morning.
It's never the wrong time to have a discussion about Disney's cryogenically frozen head.
froggyplatypus Agreed, even if he was actually cremated
Your output is entertaining, informative, and funny as hell. No pun intended. If you are a funeral director, I bet the families love you. Keep up the great work.
I grew up in southern CA, and spent many summer days at Disney land. I'm about as old as it, too! The old film clips were great! Loved this 3 part series!
As much as I love the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay, I'm a little sad Caitlin wasn't there when it's the normal Haunted Mansion. The deathiest of all the Disneyland attractions!
The original ride was SO awesome....
In the dutch fantasy theme park the efteling, one of the first attractions build after the initial opening was a ghost castle, where corpses and gravestones dance to the dans macabre. It’s quite nice. Kate Bush danced there once.
Lianne De Graaf oh I wanted to go there for such a long time. Now even more!
Echt waar....? Ik wist dat niet van Kate Bush. Wel dat er inderdaad mensen het park uitgestuurd zijn omdat ze bij het kasteel as van een familielid wilden verstrooien.
Kate Bush was daar om het spookslot te openen geloof ik, ze heeft ook een grafsteen daar liggen
My two favorite things, Disney and Death. On a serious note, my aunt passed away a few weeks ago and watching these vids ( for the past yr now) helped me cope with it all. Thank You ❤️
My condolences.
TJ W Thank You 😊
@@cristinadiaz9756 Your welcome.
These videos helped me with my Mom's death too. I wish I had known they existed when my brother died. Maybe I wouldn't have had the emotional breakdown that almost got me institutionalized.
Cassy Bug sending big hugs 🤗. I lost my grandmother, aunt (different one) and grandfather within 3 months a few yrs ago. I know what you mean by having that emotional breakdown. I couldn’t function. Wish I had these vids when I was going through all of that too.
Oh the irony. A death positive being that's claustrophobic.
I watch your videos OVER AND OVER!!! My favorite so far is “The Lake That Never Gives Up Her Dead.” SOOO HAUNTING!
I hope all is well with you, that you are enjoying your vacation even in this global COVID crisis, and I can’t wait to read your new book!
TONS of Love from the Delta!❤️

,
Coco is such a beautiful film, I am so glad they did not end up doing that trademark stuff it would make me feel dirty.
Technically it was corrupt corporate Disney that made that decision, not the crew at Pixar. Pixar is an animation studio and isn't really involved in the business side of things other than following orders.
I met a deathling at school today!!! We somehow ended up talking about our love for natural burials and taxidermy and found out we both love your show!!! DEATH MADE ME A FRIEND TODAY
I could totally smell the air on the pirates ride from here.
I hadn’t seen this episode! So, thank you! I just saw the Starvation Heights doc! I may have been an influence, as I made a comment. I’m so close to the property, and the author is so kind, and a truly great neighbor for all he has done for our community. Thank you Caitlin Doughty, you are brilliant and so pretty. Love , Julie Lowe
LOL "we're going to bring ghosts from all over the world..."
LOL too, the stuck between life and death moment!
Interesting to hear Sarah's view on Disney's use of the culture. I'd love to hear more.
The crypt would have been amazing!!!!!!! Wow imagine that brought back.. I doubt they would but oml I would go to Disney just for that!!
I’m glad my favorite bone man, Jack Skellington finally got a minor cameo!
Finally? Where have you been the last 18 years? 🤣 Disney does a Nightmare Before Chirstmas holiday layover for Haunted Mansion every year since 2001. It starts around September and goes through the beginning of January, and is called Haunted Mansion Holiday.
@@cannibalisticrequiem I think they meant on this channel, not in general.
Jes, I meant on the channel. Don’t make assumptions like that. You could start a flame war with that sort of attitude.
I don't think I've ever been on the Haunted Mansion WITHOUT having the ride stop backwards on that incline. Every single time, I swear. That fake crow yelling on the branch overhead is my friend now.
I'm old enough to have seen the real skulls. Thanks for the info.
The catacombs sound like such amazing project! so sad!! I remember being freaked out when the haunted house ride would freeze up unexpectedly. Seems to be pretty common
Getting stuck on the haunted mansion is a rite of passage when you go to the park 😂
Disney's head....
The Haunted Mansion is my favorite ride. During one of the parades, we rode it 6 times in a row since everyone else was watching the parade.
I wonder how many people have died whilst at Disney World. We’ve had someone loose a leg on a ride at Alton Towers a couple of years back, not what you’d expect on a day out.
Look it up on Wikipedia. They have a whole list
Oh you can easily find content about Disney deaths
thatdamnstarship to add to that look up America Sings by Defunctland. It talks a little bit about the death of a Disney employee from that ride.
@@pisces2569 Agreed. Definitely look up Defunctland's video on America Sings. One of the best and most respectfully made.
Luna & Burnt-Toast I already saw it. I actually just recommended to one of the commentators. It's the comment above yours.
I stumbled across your videos and really find them interesting. My uncle was a mortician as well - as an aside, there was radio show back in the day that had a character named "Digger O'Dell" (an undertaker, natch) and that was my uncle's nickname.
He signed all his cards and letters "Eventually yours"
Keep up the good work! You're also lovely, by the way.
Mr. Toad's ride and The Haunted Mansion were my favorites as a child. Explains a lot about my obsession with the afterlife.
“Disney’s head.” LOL You go girl!
I love when they do that funny head thing with the silly voice. Cracks me up every time!
😂
Considering the title of the video, I was sooo hoping for it! 😂
I waited nearly 13 and a half minutes JUST FOR THAT!
I mean, the rest was interesting, too.
I now have the mental image of going on a ride on space mountain and getting a face full of cremated remains 😅 that would make holiday memories to last a lifetime
Pirates of the Caribbean would be an excellent final resting place.
I could absolute think of that for real.
@Trent Matuszewski RUclipsr Rob Plays has a video about this subject that you ought to check out. It's pretty fun.
With my luck,a "cast member " would catch my ashes mid flight with a dustbuster!
Agreed 100%
@@cannibalisticrequiem which video is it?
The original Haunted Mansion for Disneyland looks exactly like the Tower of Terror in Disneyworld
Perhaps, The ride was not broken, it was helping guests with disabilities safely get on or off the ride :)
How weird a few days ago my grandma let me know she’s taking the family to Disney world next Christmas, a day later this series 😊 feels like everything is coming together lol
I WASNT READY FOR THIS EPISODE SO SOON!!! love this channel more than I love.... idk something I love a lot :D
I never thought I would get my theme park fix in the show about death. Yet here we are. Great video, keep them coming.
"I personally have seen his ashes". ROFL. Right right. He looked at the ashes and said "yep, that's Walt. I would recognize his ashes anywhere.
Best comment ever! BAHAHAHAHA! Nice👍👍
"Disney's commercialization of Day of the Dead is an example of appropriation"
The Irish: "Hold my St. Paddy's Day..."
its their own holiday, how are their appropriating it
the Irish hate when you say Paddy instead of Patty
@@Juliette5044 Because in Ireland it's a Catholic saint's feast day, everywhere else it's an excuse to make a big deal of distant Irish ancestry, engage in clichés, and get blind drunk.
@@johanvajse8410 Incorrect. It is 'Paddy,' because the name of the saint was Pádraig.
@@funstuff2006 thats what the irish do too....
Oh this 2nd episode came soon, sooner than I expected. Too soon, I wasn't ready! Okay back to the video.
"Take me when I'm gone to Forest Lawn!" Mr. Toad's Wild Ride was my favorite, too.
Dear Caitlin, during the last year I had to deal with three deaths in my immediate surroundings. Even tho it was and still is traumatic and the sadness is keeping hold of me, I'm absolutely sure that watching your videos for a long time already has definitely softened the impact. I don't know how else I would have coped, if I wasn't open and informed about death through your videos. Thank you, for your contribution.
Too scared to watch this in bed last night, now that I’m watching it you’re whimsically hilarious. Literally love this 😂💕
Your meantion of Disney and Day of the Dead makes me lose any respect I had for Disney ☹️
I've discovered you today, not disappointed at all :D
Caitlin is amazing, as are her videos!
Welcome to the death family
You found her on time. Her videos lately were boring AF!
Welcome to the family!
@@JenniferMenendez522 ikr!
Never clicked on a video so fast in my life. Thank you for talking about things like death, it helps normalize it which... it’s nothing to be afraid of. So thank you! Your humor is always on point
I’m curious. As a mortician, do you find ghosts and after death horror themes scary like those of us who aren’t used to being around death?
I love how thorough you are in your research about things. I honestly learn so much, not just about death, when I watch your videos!
I’m in Florida, they got rid of toads wild ride 😭 that was one of my favorites. Thanks for the history on that ride!
I got to ride WDW's in 1994, the first time I ever went. I was 6. Mr. Toad, If You Had Wings, The Timekeeper, the Skyride, etc, were all still there, but at the time, 20,000 Leagues (which my dad had been telling me about) had been abandoned and left to rot for a year, and would be ripped out within months of our visit. I could see it, but never got to ride it. I loved loved LOVED Mr. Toad and we got to ride If You Had Wings twice (my dad was a pilot, so it was his thing). When we returned in 1999, very few of these attractions were still there. Sigh.
