Disneyland Attraction Reveiw: Haunted Mansion

Ride: Haunted Mansion
Number of times I've ridden it: At least three

The Haunted Mansion, like Pirates of the Caribbean, was the ride that we did when we had nothing else to do. Besides, it's a fun one to do over and over and over and...

The Haunted Mansion is a classic ride where you explore a mansion with ghosts and floating object moving around you as you're riding a slow moving comfy chair. The Haunted Mansion isn't really scary. It's actually pretty cool, because it uses holographic technology to make it look like ghosts are dancing in a dining room and then disappear. They also use optical illusions to make it look like statues are moving, projectors to make it look like when ever you look in a mirror a ghost in your cart, and great special effects to make it look like a talking head is floating! There's also an introduction that we think may be scarier than the ride it self (not that much scarier though). The whole ride is not that scary. My sister and brother (who are kids) were laughing through it! But if you are truly scarred of anything, then you may consider not going.

Overall Rating: 7/10
