Let’s SET SAIL!

The Disney Treasure is almost ready for its maiden voyage, and we got to check out everything new on the latest addition to the Disney Cruise Line’s fleet, including the HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED new lounge themed to Disney’s ICONIC Haunted Mansion.

Last Fall, Disney announced that the Treasure would feature the Haunted Mansion Parlor, a lounge the company said would resemble the first-class drawing room of a classic cruise liner, taking “inspiration” from the original Haunted Mansion with a nautical twist.

They went on to say the space would “immerse guests in the next chapter of the Haunted Mansion saga, bringing this fan-favorite lore to life in a whole new way. The one-of-a-kind experience will be a swinging wake unlike any other, that of a jovial captain who entered the ghostly realm after a disastrous dinner with his beloved fiancé.”

We’re in New York City for the ship’s christening — and a first look at TONS of spots aboard the ship, including the Haunted Mansion Parlor! But first, Disney has shared another sneak peek at this spot and we just had to share it with you! Welcome, foolish mortals — to the Haunted Mansion Parlor!

We love how much it resembles the ride — especially here at the entrance.

Here’s a look at the bar, which will feature plenty of hauntingly delicious cocktails, beer, wine, mocktails, and more. We may even get to see some familiar faces hiding behind that mirror, too!

There’s even an actual Donald Duck chair that it looks like you can actually sit in — which we’ll confirm for ourselves in just a bit.

It’s incredible how much this parlor truly does resemble the Mansion, even down to the spooky busts! Above the mini Grandfather Clock, you’ll notice there’s a painting that could be a reference to the Flying Dutchman painting in the Portrait Corridor on the ride — that flickers to reveal a ship with tattered sails.

It looks like this aquarium is being taken over by a sea monster — perhaps there will be some sort of interactive feature here like you might experience at Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Room or Grog Grotto! It’s possible that the aquarium is a tribute to Disney Imagineer Rolly Crump, who had previously designed a ghostly aquarium full of the ghosts of dead fish.

The space doesn’t look small, but it’s certainly not a large area either. We’re expecting the Haunted Mansion Parlor to be pretty popular among Disney Treasure passengers! Note that there is a very limited amount of seating in here. It’s set up like a true parlor or lounge instead of a bar with lots of tables.

We love how cozy the atmosphere is — it truly looks like you’ve stepped back in time and right into the Haunted Mansion. Stay tuned for our FULL coverage of this space as we get an exclusive look at the Disney Treasure!

And now, let us take you on a FULL TOUR of the Haunted Mansion Parlor! Remember that spooky aquarium we were talking about before?! Well, we got to see it IN THE DARK and it got even spookier.

We also got a look at some of the specialty cocktail mugs you’ll find on this ship when you order certain drinks…

…and the specialty sodas, too! You’ll find flavors like “Grim Grinning Grape,” “Sour Shivers Lemonade,” “Screaming Soda,” and “Creepy Crawly Cola.”

We also got a look at the menu — including some nonalcoholic drinks…

…some lively (or should we say DEADLY) alcoholic libations…

…and there’s even a secret menu! If you turn the tablet menu on its side, you can answer a riddle. Get it right, and then you’ll reveal…

…a secret cocktail for two! The Spirits Have Been Released is $30 and comes with two cocktails — one is made with St. George Botanivore Gin, Screaming Soda, Blackberry, and Blueberry and the other is made with Five Trail Blended Whiskey, Sour Shivers Lemonade, and Orange.

Oh yeah, and here’s a look at the incredible gargoyle receptacle it’ll be served in! Unfortunately, you don’t get to keep the gargoyle or the glasses but this is still SO cool! You can also get it with nonalcoholic drinks if you prefer.

See the secret menu in action below!
