While we were placidly sleeping, guests and ghosts at Disneyland Park were assembling for a raucous, swinging wake that lasted till the wee hours in the morning. “The Haunted Mansion: Celebrating 50 Years of Retirement Unliving” was more than just merch. It was a full-on seance, filled with music, merrymaking, and spirits from beyond.

We were there in our corruptible, mortal state to experience all of these otherworldly exhibits, and have preserved these haunted happenings for posterity. Check out three of last night’s shows, including a phantasmic projections show, a live appearance by the head psychic herself, Madame Leota, and a Spirited Soiree down by the riverside.

Send in the spirits, wherever they’re at! We kicked off the night (at 1:00 AM, no less) with an impressive projection show across the Rivers of America, inviting spirits to awaken and arise.

And finally, at 3:00 AM, it was time for the Spirited Soiree as the Main Street Band took us down to St. James Infirmary to see what was in that coffin they were carrying all along.

For even more wickedly good live entertainment from last night, check out the amazing live actors that were in the actual Haunted Mansion attraction in our latest post here.
