Though technically OT--tis the season! I just wanted to be sure everyone was aware of a couple of new Haunted Mansion items:
1. Book: The Haunted Manison, From the Magic Kingdom to the Movies, by Jason Surrell; The definitive Haunted Mansion book, hands down, filled with wonderful historical information and concept artwork on the Mansions here, and overseas as well! Unfortunately only available in softcover, from what I could find--$19.95. It ends with a section on the upcoming movie, although the real heart of the book concerns the attraction itself. An essential addition to the bookshelf.
2. Magazine: Haunted Attraction; First time I've spotted this one at Borders--it features a good article by Doombuggies.com host Jeff Baham, as he tours the sets from the upcoming Haunted Mansion movie--and from what he's seen, he thinks it'll be a definite thumbs up!
I'm going to be interested in seeing how well it does in comparison with Pirates--scary skeletons in both.....OK..... but I don't suppose Mr. Murphy will draw in the teenage girls like Mr. Depp, so I'd guess Pirates will take the prize......we'll see......
