Iconic Disney Attraction Is Beloved, but Not by All

On one hand, there is a legion of devoted fans who simply cannot get enough of the Haunted Mansion. These enthusiasts adore the eerie charm and timeless allure that permeates every nook and cranny of the attraction. From the moment they step foot into the foreboding foyer, they are transported to a realm of spectral wonders. The meticulous attention to detail, exquisite set designs, and hauntingly beautiful audio-visual effects combine to create an immersive experience unlike any other.

However, despite its devoted following, the Haunted Mansion does have its share of detractors. Some visitors find the ride to be too spooky or intimidating, particularly for younger guests. The dark corridors, disorienting illusions, and ghostly apparitions can be overwhelming for those who are more easily frightened. While the attraction is intended to provide thrills and scares, it may not be everyone’s cup of tea.

However, one guest’s qualm with the attraction has caused hilarity to ensue online.

Guest Upset Over “Disgusting” Grass

A recent post to the r/Disneyland Reddit thread has caused quite a lot of commotion online due to its absurd nature. The guests in question called out Disneyland Park’s use of fake grass at the Haunted Mansion instead of real grass. The post says;

“Disgusting they are using fake grass at the Haunted mansion instead of St. Augustine grass. Let’s cut the BS about conserving water. I’m appalled.”

Many fans couldn’t help but point out just how silly this complain is. Comments say:

“BREAKING: Old man yells at fake grass. Bro there are worse things to complain about.”

Another says:

“Wow you must have a pretty good life to be ‘appalled’ by grass in an amusement park.
