BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 The Haunted Mansion will be closed for refurb from December 1-19, reopening on Dec. 20. In addition, the refurb of the Yankee Trader shop, that is slated to reopen as a Haunted Mansion shop, has been extended. It was slated to open 9/30, but latest word is that it will not reopen until some time "at the end of the year." No confirmed reopen date at this time.

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 My sources tell me that the reason for the delay in the gift shop is that Willard Scott has chained himself to the building wearing only a Smuckers t-shirt, insisting that the Yankee Trader be saved.

FunFinder265....Cody 36 Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 Thanks Mo! I was hoping the store would be open before Halloween, but like you said, my bank account is breathing a small sigh of relief. Cody Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Any word on what they did while it was down? TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Any word on what they did while it was down? TCD Rumor has it they installed an overlay similar to the NBC one at DL. Only this one is "The Ghosts of Disney Past", and features 999 warm, ooey gooey cinnamon rolls. There's room for one more. Too bad those dumb idiots stopped making them.
