Pictures: Haunted Mansion Renovation Work & Final Visit for the Season
Haunted Mansion Holiday is still in operation through Sunday, then the attraction closes for several months for a number of renovation projects including a new queue, gift shop and accessibility elevator. As of Friday much of the former queue including the switchbacks and former FastPass distribution area were behind walls and being demolished. Due to this a different queue than normal was in use. Lightning Lane returns were walking right up to the stairs and merging before entering the foyer. Standby wrapped around the portion of the park that was still available and then followed the wall to the mansion gates. Once on the grounds it followed the normal path but instead of heading to the switchbacks along the berm you wrapped back and then snaked up the steps, along the side of the house, through a switchback and then back to the doorway to merge with LL return guests. Here are some pictures of the queue then from my final ride through of this season.
Now some pictures from my ride through:
