Attention Disneyland enthusiasts! A spooky and thrilling new souvenir is about to make its ghostly debut at Disneyland, and it’s sure to be a must-have for any Haunted Mansion fan.
Starting August 8th, guests visiting Disneyland can snag the highly coveted Hatbox Ghost sipper. This unique souvenir, more a collectible figure than your run-of-the-mill drink container, is modeled after the eerie and enigmatic Hatbox Ghost from the classic Haunted Mansion attraction. As if the design itself isn’t spellbinding enough, the sipper features new haunting sounds and a light-up hatbox, adding an additional shiver of delight to celebrate the 55th anniversary of the attraction.
What has fans particularly excited is the intricate strap that comes with the sipper, featuring details that are winning over many Disney aficionados. While this sipper is currently announced only for Disneyland, fans of Walt Disney World will recognize the Hatbox Ghost, who now appears in their own Haunted Mansion following its addition to the attraction there.
The Hatbox Ghost’s storied past adds even more allure to this item. Originally included at the Haunted Mansion’s 1969 debut, this animatronic apparition was removed shortly thereafter, catapulting the character into cult-classic status. After a lengthy absence, the ghostly figure made his long-awaited return during Disneyland’s 60th anniversary Diamond Celebration in 2015.
If you’re planning to visit Disneyland and grab this spook-tacular sipper, consider booking with Mouse Fan Travel for all your vacation needs. Your thoughts?
