It just got a bit easier to ride the Haunted Mansion Holiday attraction in Disneyland Park!

Haunted Mansion Holiday at Disneyland

This attraction has been undergoing a renovation since January 21st, 2024. While the attraction reopened on July 29th, the queue was still under construction. Due to the construction on the queue, Haunted Mansion was utilizing a virtual queue. However, that has officially changed!

The brand-new grounds of the Haunted Mansion have opened TODAY, November 26th, and with the opening of the new queue, Haunted Mansion will no longer be utilizing a virtual queue. Instead, the attraction will be offering a stand-by line, as well as the option to use the Lightning Lane with Lightning Lane Multi Pass or Lightning Lane Premier Pass.

Pirates of the Caribbean was initially a temporary selection for Lightning Lane Multi Pass until Haunted Mansion Holiday was available again for Lightning Lane Multi Pass. However, now that Haunted Mansion Holiday is available on Lightning Lane Multi Pass, we are still seeing Pirates of the Caribbean available as well. We are not sure if this will change soon or not, but it is definitely something to be aware of and to keep an eye out for!

And now, you don’t have to worry about getting a virtual queue to ride it! Simply head over and you can wait in the stand-by line.

In addition to the new queue details, Disney has also been working on an all-new Haunted Mansion themed retail shop. This new store will be called Madame Leota’s Somewhere Beyond and it is expected to open this winter. We got a look at some concept art from inside the store, and we are excited to see it in person!

The store is a carriage house that ended up being the residence of Madame Leota. Inside, the shop is filled with Madame Leota’s eclectic furniture and her crystal ball. Madame Leota comes and goes from the shop quite a bit, and she is excited to welcome shoppers into her home this winter.
