Man... the tombstones are just so perfect...  HM may (perhaps) have the best slow build to a ride of any themed attraction... the graveyard to the foyer to the stretching room to the load area... even more than INDY (which is amazing que, but still a que), HM is an experience from the moment you approach... thanks for the pix!!!

I've never been to Disneyland, but I never even knew that WDW had a pet cemetary!  I think it's so funny how the animal statues were bought at a garden store.  That's great!  The Haunted Mansion Holiday looks so fun!  I agree with bhb007- thanks for the pics!

How about Mr. Toad in the pet cemetary at the exit of the mansion at WDW?  I thought that was pretty cool.  I miss the old fella.

I also never saw the pet cemetary at WDW. I'll have to look for it next time!

I'm a little saddened you didn't mention the addition of the Mr. Toad statue at the back of the pet cemetary in WDW.  A cast member pointed that out on a tour we went on of the mansion and I thought it was cute

I've got a photo of the Mr. Toad statue that I'd be happy to e-mail you for inclusion into this article if you send me a note at epcotctr82@yahoo.com!

The Haunted Mansion is one of my favorite rides in the magic Kingdom.

For some reason the Queue is always a short wait.

There's barely time to read the tombstones

The last time I entered the Mansion, I enjoyed it, but it sure likes the place could use a fixing up. The speakers in my doom buggy barely worked and there was a LOT of static. Jim, have you heard anything about a possible refurbishment for the place? I'd hate to see such a classic ride fall into disrepair. I hope there's good news coming...
