Join Amanda, Kevin, and Sam as they shine a light on the life and legacy of Disney Imagineer Yale Gracey, the creative genius behind many of the Haunted Mansion’s most iconic illusions and other attractions like Pirates of the Caribbean and beyond. From ghostly apparitions to brilliant projection effects, Gracey’s imagination continues to inspire Imagineers and fans alike.

⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode contains a brief discussion of Yale Gracey’s tragic and unsolved death. The episode as a whole focuses on his life, artistry, and influence, but listener discretion is advised during this section.
