Because the Haunted Mansion is an opening day attraction, the dark ride has been operating nonstop for over 50 years! That’s more than enough time to cause general wear and tear and develop technical issues.

Considering that the closure is only reflected on the mobile Walt Disney World app and not on the official website, it’s safe to say that the Haunted Mansion will be up and running again soon enough.
So fret not, fans of this spooky attraction! We’re sure the 999 Happy Haunts and hitchiking ghosts will be back and better than ever before you know it.
