Hi Matthew! Thanks for dropping by planDisney.
I can see you're trying to make your final arrangements. How very Haunted Mansion of you. I'm a huge fan of the iconic Attraction in New Orleans Square at Disneyland Park too, and unfortunately, due to the improvements currently underway, we weren't able to commune with the happy haunts on our most recent visit. I totally understand your concern and desire for more information, and I've got my fingers crossed for you that you'll be enjoying your favorite Attraction soon.
Without Madame Leota's crystal ball, I'm at a loss, however. I heard she's taking a well-deserved nap. In the meantime, there's been no official announcement about when we can expect those Doom Buggies to start their journey again or whether the Attraction will reopen with its Holiday overlay already in place. My suggestion would be to watch the
Haunted Mansion page for updates, check the Refurbishment section of the
Daily Events Schedule, and keep your eye on the
Disney Parks Blog, which is the official news source for the parks.
Disney Parks Blog
announced the currently ongoing refurbishment of Haunted Mansion last summer, so it might be the first to announce its reopening! And if you're visiting in the fall, Disney Eats will also have great information on Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort, including the new treats coming to celebrate the season. Find the Foodie Guides on the blog by clicking the "Topics" dropdown menu. Select "Foodie Guides." Disney Eats has all the information you need about food and beverage news in the parks, so you'll be ready with your must-eat list and a spooky good time.
Have a magical day.
Elizabeth
