Umm, you know you're arguing with a former Imagineer there, right?

Yeah - but that doesn't mean anything (and how could he know that)! I'm just someone who probably thinks waaaaaay too much about this stuff. And I'm a big theme park nerd to boot.

But Freddie is right - people assign way to much to additions to scenes in the ride - as if whoever at Disney made the change is aware (or even cares about) a supposed storyline. These rides are fluid - not something locked down forever. Changes are made all the time, some noticeable, some not. If you are really locked into a story about it - it may make the experience less for you. Better just to go and enjoy yourself (anyone who's been with me to Disneyland and heard me bitch about the lack of the original Tiki Room A-frame or opening up the lanai now know what a hypocrite I am)!

But, as for the attic - I'd really rather have the Hatbox Ghost back! (Something I pitched during the Mansion's 30th anniversary, and was roundly rejected on).
