Produced by: Mickie Eberz
Closing Song: “Sleeping in Glass” by Empress
Episode Summary:
In this immersive deep-dive, Spring Heeled Jack peels back the carefully lacquered layers of Disneyland California to reveal the bloodstained foundation beneath the fantasy. From the early life of Walt Disney to the dark psychological mechanisms that guide your every step in the park, this episode is a narrative descent into the tragedies, conspiracies, forgotten attractions, and lingering spirits that the Mouse would rather you ignore.
You'll hear the gruesome details of confirmed deaths, the real ghost stories whispered by Cast Members, the attractions that were too disturbing to build, and the Orwellian surveillance infrastructure silently watching your every move. All woven together with California-native nostalgia and a cynical eye for the machinery of myth.
It’s not just about theme park history—it’s about how we build dreams atop graves, and what happens when we try to trap magic in a place that can't stop remembering the dead.
Enter the park.
Exit at your own risk.
