News:
Madame Leota has returned from somewhere beyond and opened her own shop! Madam Leota’s Somewhere Beyond is located at the exit to The Haunted Mansion and is themed to the carriage house of the mansion. Inside, countless artifacts from Madame Leota’s collection are on display. For guests, a wide range of Haunted Mansion themed merchandise is for sale. – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/12/23/surprise-disneys-new-haunted-mansion-store-is-now-open/#more-996998 https://www.micechat.com/407013-haunted-mansion-madame-leotas-somewhere-beyond-shop-open/

With the return of the classic Haunted Mansion later this month, Imagineering might have a new surprise for guests! A new bride may appear in the attic of the mansion. A sneak preview of this new bride may be seen in the Madame Leota shop as a portrait. The new bride is rumored to have a cutting-edge blend of classic and modern effects. The goal is to elevate the character to the same level as the Hatbox Ghost, who appeared in 2016. – https://www.micechat.com/407093-disneyland-update-haunted-mansion-secrets-holiday-hustle-whats-next/

The queue for Pirates of the Caribbean frequently sprawls throughout New Orleans Square. MiceChat reports that Imagineers are working on a solution to this issue. The solution could replace some classic areas like the Port Royal shop, Royal Street Veranda quick service window, and the small courtyard between the shops. As sad as it may be to lose these locations, an extended, more themed, indoor queue might be a good thing for New Orleans Square. – https://www.micechat.com/406689-disneyland-update-from-christmakkah-to-construction-swashbuckling-surprises/

With the start of a new year comes new merchandise for that year. For 2025, there is the Disney Play in the Park collection – Disneyland Version, which features fun activities for guests to enjoy while at Disneyland. A wide selection of items are in this collection. Disneyland 2025 Dated merchandise is also out. This year, the design is more colorful, with the 2025 being more of a solid color, in most of the apparel designs. This also means that select 2024 merchandise is 50% off now. – https://www.micechat.com/406875-disneyland-merchandise-update-new-year-new-gear-for-2025/

One of the last parts of the Downtown Disney expansion is making great progress! The walls have come down around Parkside Market, which means that the location could open any day now! The building will house Sip & Sonder, GGs Chicken Shop, Seoul Sister, and Vista Parkside Market when it opens. – https://www.micechat.com/407093-disneyland-update-haunted-mansion-secrets-holiday-hustle-whats-next/ https://www.parksidemarketla.com/

Something is finally happening at the old ESPN Zone building in Downtown Disney! Construction walls have gone up around the building and permits show that the space will split into three spaces, two downstairs, and one upstairs. – https://www.micechat.com/407093-disneyland-update-haunted-mansion-secrets-holiday-hustle-whats-next/

A construction project long in the works between Cars Land and Avengers Campus has finally wrapped up. A new guest seating area has been added across from Luigi’s Rollickin’ Roadsters. The area was previously themed with desert plants. This area will be great to enjoy Cozy Cone delights. – https://www.micechat.com/407093-disneyland-update-haunted-mansion-secrets-holiday-hustle-whats-next/

Something has returned to the Indiana Jones Adventure queue! The safety video with Sallah has returned to a more extended version with more theming than just the “use the seatbelts” section. This is a welcome return as the video was able to loop multiple times for each guest recently. – https://www.micechat.com/407093-disneyland-update-haunted-mansion-secrets-holiday-hustle-whats-next/

ans of the Australian hit animated show Bluey have something big to celebrate! A Bluey movie is coming to theaters, which means that Bluey and her family will be at the resort.
