At Disneyland, California, a ghost has been seen at the Haunted Mansion, he is known by the staff as ‘the man in a tuxedo’. No one knows the apparitions identity. On one occasion an employee was working in the area where passengers disembark from the ride. Here there is a mirror, so the attendant can see when the riders arrive behind her. During her shift she kept seeing a figure in the mirror, when she turned around no one was there. The figure she saw seemed to be wearing a tuxedo, then she felt a chill and a hand on her shoulder, she turned to find no one there. The woman ran out of the Haunted Mansion and quit her job straight away.
A ghost nicknamed George is said to haunt the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. George was a working at Disneyland when a beam fell from a ride he was working on and killed him. George’s apparition is often seen in the early hours of the morning and is often mistaken for an intruder.
A young blond girl has been spotted at the Spaceship Earth area at the Epcot Center. Her ghost is often seen sat in one of the cars that take visitors around the centre, sometimes she is with a young boy.
There have been sightings of ghosts at Space Mountain and the Big Thunder Railroad attractions in the past six months by employees at Disneyland. And most recently a video from security cameras at Disneyland seems to show what is believed to be the ghost of Walt Disney walking through the grounds. The apparition is caught by multiple cameras, and it seems to walk right through closed gates and even across water. The below video shows one of these occasions caught on tape.
It is said that ghosts often haunt places where their lives ended tragically or places where they had particularly happy memories. If this is the case, then it makes sense that the worker, George, who died whilst working on one of the rides chooses to haunt there. Equally, it makes sense that the little girl and boy had spent happy times at Disneyland whilst they were alive and definetly that Walt Disney would want to spend time at the place that was his life’s work!
