From replacing It’s Tough to Be A Bug with a Zootopia show to debuting an all-new (and reportedly funny-looking) Figment character at EPCOT, there were a few announcements that Disney fans didn’t really… appreciate.

However, just like many things in Disney World, there are some common misconceptions about this icon, such as that the correct name IS Cinderella Castle and NOT “Cinderella’s Castle.” But there’s more where that came from — here are 4 lies that everyone believes about Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom.
If you’ve been to Disney World even once, you probably know that rain can literally happen at any given moment.
