"Our Tour Begins Here in this Gallery Where You Gaze Upon the Sweet Innocence of Youth..."

Disneyland Paris

Phantom Manor

Stretching Room

 

Phantom Manor's stretching room has a similar yet different tone to its script, as reflected by the title of this photo. This is not because something is lost in translation, but is because the attraction's story is quite different.

 

The narration was originally in English by Vincent Price but was apparently changed around the time the park opened to the general public. I was fortunate enough to have a blog reader send me a recording of Vincent Price's original English narration, and it's quite eloquent. It focuses on lost beauty and youth for reasons unique to Phantom Manor's (and Frontierland's) storyline.

 

In my years of visiting Walt Disney World, I have never been able to capture this scene

(with the ceiling illuminated) in the Haunted Mansion Stretching Room. It's no easier to capture in Paris, but I was able to capture this on my first try. Beginner's luck, I suppose?

 

We just wrapped up the final installment of our Disneyland Paris Trip Report. Total, it has 621 photos in it, so check it out if you're interested in seeing more of Disneyland Paris, or hearing my thoughts on the parks.
