Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue! Attraction Façade Repainted, Characters Scarier Than Ever

Over the summer, we reported that Monsters, Inc. Mike & Sulley to the Rescue! attraction at Disney California Adventure would be closing for a refurbishment. The attraction recently reopened and the monsters on the façade are looking scarier than ever.

We visited the attraction and discovered that the characters that grace the façade of the attraction have received a fresh coat of paint. They look remarkably different, a few for the better, but most on social media agree a majority were changed for the worse.

Doors are a major way of going from room to room in the Monsters, Inc. factory. Scarers use this technology to enter the Human World and scare children. Here we see Randall Boggs appearing at his door.
