FIRST LOOK at Disney's HAUNTED MANSION Bar & Pirates Tavern - Disney News

I think The Tower of Terror should get its own bar at Disney Hollywood Studios as its the number one ride and the resturant will take tourists into the movie of dinning in the actual tower as apose to just riding it. How cool would that be.

This makes me want a Haunted Mansion restaurant even more! I'm not a drinker, but Oga's Cantina was fun, and I want more highly themed eateries!

It really feels like Disney is transforming from a family/children brand to a Disney adult brand…especially in the parks….time will tell.

Definitely the Haunted Mansion for sure!

Good god i'd love to see a Haunted Mansion restaurant going crazy with the theme and make it like the ballroom with large fake windows revealing a perpetual thundering night sky.

One of most exciting announcements & new projects I’ve heard in a long time. Not bc of the alcohol but because of the doubling down and expansion of the themed attractions that made them what they are today. LOVE this.

Jack: I visited the "Pirate's League" space COUNTLESS times in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s... when it was the original "House of Treasure" gift shop! That's why all of the theming in still on the upper walls. The current Pirate's retail space was basically an open courtyard at the ride's exit, and did not "become" the new gift shop area until the original "House of Treasure" was converted into the Pirate's League. It's a relatively SMALL SPACE for a bar, maybe smaller than Trader Sam's Grog Grotto....

I think a Tangled themed lounge would be sooooo much better than the Tangled bathroom that is currently there in DW. We obviously would call it the Snuggly Duckling

I can't narrow down which one would be my favorite, but I love that they are all getting the drink treatment! I could definitely see options for all the classic rides, like a Western tavern for Frontierland with wild west saloon antics at hand; a Swiss Alps Beerhouse for the Matterhorn (or pushed further with a SEA flair into Steampunk theming and gears and clocks and stuff); a Villains dark tavern for the villain land; and a Galaxy Lounge in Tomorrowland to enhance the views of the coaster's story (similar to Space 220, but only focusing on the Space Mountain concept, history, and "future"). I could also see some sort of hidden "escape room" 1920s vibe bar in Main Street, maybe paying homage to Disney's home and stuff; a Royal Castle bar showcasing exclusivity for the nighttime show or daytime parades or something; and even a Tiki tavern to help accelerate new life into the Enchanted Tiki Room.

They're going to need a lot of rum.

Haunted Mansion Hotel - ON Discovery Island.

It's amazingly video for Disney's Newscast, Jack.

I am most excited about the Haunted Mansion bar. Hopefully it is bigger than it looks! This bar will be super popular and they need room for more people than the typical DCL themed bar.

It looks like the chair they're taking out of the HM is going to be moved to the new parlour.

I’m surprised that Disney is not planning on creating the haunted mansion hotel yet

Hopefully any new bars might actually give you a CHAIR to sit on, unlike Olga’s Cantina at Disneyland. Nothing like having a late afternoon cocktail after walking 8 miles that day only to have to stand with your drink.

First Disney news that has been positive/exciting in quite a while. Hope fatherhood is treating you well!

That is really awesome to see! Awesome video.

THE HAUNTED MANSION SHOULD GET ITS OWN RESTAURANT!

This is 100% a test for the parks! They do this with the ships with the musicals to workshop them before developing in to a bigger project 😆
