The sunset is quite beautiful as you are standing and waiting to go inside. Once inside and hearing Vincent Price speak is quite chilling. One of my favorite actors
@@randykoger4646 They just dont serve the same purpose at all. Paul Free's ghost host is playful and lowkey comical, Price's ghost is supposed to be macabre and creepy
Every night over and over again, when it becomes dark and everyone is heading for main street, this is a great picture place.. (with the phatom in the window not to miss)
Phantom Manor is the elegant old world spin on the Haunted Mansion that takes itself with a little bit more sincerity. The Haunted Mansion is great but phantom Manor is like a dark fairy tale . I adore it.
I remember at Haunted Mansion in Orlando, a cast member put up a sign signaling the end of the line for the ride, and he was so good at acting like a ghost that for a second I thought he was one.
I visited Disneyland Paris last month and Phantom Manor was my favorite ride there. Such a beautiful and haunting concept. I felt it has a much better and creepier story than Haunted Mansion in Disneyland & WDW
Basically walked right on when we were at Disneyland California,middle of August,early afternoon and there was like 1 group ahead of us…i remember because I had a front of the line pass(it was my make-a-wish trip) and didn’t have to use it…so it may be rare but it does happen!!
We regularly go in December & during a parade or on the run up to the fireworks show you can frequently get to access the Phantom Manor with ease. It’s not that it’s under unpopular attraction, but the guests are busy queuing or at another big attraction. It’s down to timing.
The last I’ve ridden this ride was 2005 and hadn’t kept up with any news of changes to the attraction… until I saw this video out of random curiosity! I can’t believe the changes they’ve made namely the swap of the Phantom at the end of the ride where I distinctly remember him looking much more horrifying and disturbing (like rotting flesh with eyeballs) and of course the bride soon after being nothing but a skeleton pointing to the mirrors. It left a haunting message at the end of the ride about the obsession of love and longing festering someone to the point of wasting their life until death.
I miss the original story. Star crossed lovers with a mysterious Phantom. Now it's too obvious who the Phantom is, and having 4 lovers goes from a beautiful tragedy to almost a comedy. And originally near the end it felt like the bride was saving you from the Phantom. Now she's being used by him to lure you to your demise? No thank you!
I will never get over the loss of the original portraits in the foyer and stretching room. They were beautiful and haunting. The newer ones don't even look like real antique paintings from the victorian era, they look like gritty over shaded fan art from tumblr. The loss of the Melanie animatronic in the first turn into the hallway is yet another thing I mourn so deeply.
As French. I rode the Original Phantom Manor so many times since I was kid. And I agree The 1992 was far more darker but it was piched black through the ride. Not every in rooms.
I'm sitting here at my desk imagining I'm at Disneyland Paris & in the que to go on this ride. It's a fabulous but creepy sunset & I can't wait for my turn to board!!❤
This new version is beautiful but is missing the melancholy and mystery of the old one. And Melanie saying "Marry me!" straight up sounds like she's evil, which she isn't originally. Still my favorite ride though.
I’d love to see Disney do a movie solely on Phantom Manor since it has a totally darker story then to that of the Haunted Mansion. There’s alot of material in this ride they can work with for a Phantom Manor film. 👍🤩
Couldn't agree more. "Phantom Manor" Backstory is more interesting and intriguing at the same Time. The storytelling itself takes place in the Far Wild West. I really hope Disney will make a movie of our French Haunted Mansion which connects to Big Thunder Mountain and Thunder Mesa Town. Yep the whole Frontierland is connected with them
the new haunted mansion movie was supposed to be based on the phantom manor, you can tell because the ending remake of grim grinning ghosts has a southern/western twang to it
Wonderful video and great exterior shots! I did wonder why there was a Western ghost town under the manor but it is next to Big Thunder Mountain/Frontierland and the Boot Hill sign when you leave makes it clear they meant to show the manor must have built over a ghost town. Very neat!
The story of both rides are actually connected as the Phantom is the spirit of the Owner of the mining company from Big Thunder and an earthquake hit that caused the town to be buried.
Part of it was also an opportunity for the Imagineers to dust off the old plans they had for the abandoned Western River Expedition that Disney World Orlando was supposed to get.
@@Blundabus1337 Basically there are two stories, but you can combine them. The Ravenswood family founded the town of Thunder Mesa, a booming mining town. They had a daughter named Melanie Ravenswood. She grew to be beautiful attracting the hand of many suitors. (5 if you combine the stories) the last of which was the owner of the Thunder mountain railroad.(Jake?) The father Henry Ravenswood didn't think any of the suitors were worthy of her hand in marriage so he opposed the weddings. An earthquake in 1860 killed The elder Ravenswoods. One problem, the native americans warned of an evil spirit on "Boot Hill" where they built the manor. The "Thunder Bird". The angry spirit of the thunder bird may have caused the quake that shattered the town as well as possessing Henry Ravenswood. Jake tried to marry Melanie but was lured into the attic by the now malevolent spirit of Henry aka "the phantom" and hung him on their wedding night. after that day Melanie sang mournful wedding tunes the rest of her life. Depending on which version you subscribe to she aged until death and saves visitors of the manor by warding her father away with her own power.(Her corpse found at the end of the ride) In the new ending, she remains the same age in ghostly form and seems to have been corrupted now laughing maniacally like the phantom. (Her suitors in 4 graves at the end of the ride with no Jake) She always wears her wedding dress. That's what I got out of it.
Frontierland in France represent the town of Thunder Mesa. The mayor, Henri Ravenswood wanted to search for gold in the mines of Big Thunder Mountain. But the mountain was protected by a divinity. Henri, his wife and the men who worked with him in the mines were k!lled by a giant thunder bolt. Melanie, Ravenswood's daughter who was just heart broken after her fiancée left her at the aultel locked herself in the family mansion. She d!ed of her own sadness. Then, the manor was abandoned and villagers spread the rumour that Melanie's spirit haunt the hall of the manor, waiting for a new person to marry. Sorry if it's not clear, english is not my first language but, hope this helped anyway 😊
@@tentons10 Henry getting possessed seems like the missing link I've been looking for. I searched the story on the haunted mansion wiki but it seems like there's not enough information so I was wondering how the heck did someone like him ended up being evil because he only seemed like a strict father but not evil. It's like a 180 personality change
I love the young girls being scared in the beginning, this haunted chateau definitely brings more fear than either of the mansions do. The phantom is so scary!
I should say this version is more impressive than the US one. The entrance is majestic and creepy, I love it. Thought it needs some modernisation in some parts (the fat west part mostly). One of my favorite theme attraction.
bonjour. this is my first ever time catching a view of what the infamous 'Phantom Manor' is like. it's even scarier than I thought it'd be... I LOVE IT!
Magnifique vidéo ! J'adore cette attraction, je vais me plonger dans la lecture du livre "l'attraction décryptée" avant daller voir le film cette semaine ✨💜
I love how that employee at the beginning was definitely enjoying scaring people as they entered Lol! This is his definitely his favorite ride to work on.
Question, in the ballroom and in the mirror at 10:19, there seems to be a ghost constantly behind the bride. What's the story around that? I don't speak french.
It's the phantom. He's the one who killed her husbands (or just her one husband in the original version) and trapped her there. I believe he's supposed to be her father.
Merci j'ai eu l'impression d'y être ! Ma dernière incursion dans mon attraction favorite de Disneyland remonte à 2017, l'attraction a été rafraichie depuis mais en restant la même !
It's interesting that they went with the ghost town / Western theme at the end, instead of just the graveyard. I'm curious how that fits into the narrative.
Thanks 4 sharing this video with me . This is one of my favorites rides. I thought this ride was a blast watching on U tube.✌️✌️✌️💜💜😊❤️❤️this is so unique.✌️✌️✌️✌️❤️🔥❤️🔥💯❤️🔥💜🙂❤️❤️❤️😊💟💟💟💞💞💞 13:52
Is Disneyland in Paris usually this dead and slow? Disneyland in Anaheim is constantly busy every single day. What month did you guys go for it to be this dead without a line?
So the ending of the ride is a bit flat. Melanie was always a sympathetic character in the Phantom Manor lore. Instead of her corpse helping to guide the rider to escape towards the exit, we have this strange use of the mirror projection now where she just sounds sinister. Then again, Disney has long ago threw out anything that was already established lore for their own stories.
I knew nothing about the backstory of this ride before but I already had the impression that it's dark and boy I wasn't wrong. I wish Disney would create a movie about this.

Far less effective than Paul Frees however. Vincent’s delivery is flat and bland in comparison.
@@randykoger4646 They just dont serve the same purpose at all. Paul Free's ghost host is playful and lowkey comical, Price's ghost is supposed to be macabre and creepy
But remember, even Disney can't guarantee a beautiful sunset every night!
I love how the guy wagged his finger at the mirror part when the ghost lady went "marry me" that was funny as hell lol
That’s true😂😂
1:11 The twisted trees with the dark blue sky in background gives off such a creepy vibe it's so awesome 👍 🦇
Every night over and over again, when it becomes dark and everyone is heading for main street, this is a great picture place.. (with the phatom in the window not to miss)
Agreed those were some good shots!
@@gertsmeekes Was the phantom in the window visible in this video?
@@rkbkirin5975dont know for shure, its a timing thing
are those trees outside real trees?
That ride staff member at the beginning is perfect for Phantom Manor!xx
Phantom Manor is the elegant old world spin on the Haunted Mansion that takes itself with a little bit more sincerity. The Haunted Mansion is great but phantom Manor is like a dark fairy tale . I adore it.
Haw haw! how do you explain the old west setting then
The manor looks like the Addams family house, don't you think?
@@reginaldforthright805 - Phantom Manor is located in Frontierland, which is partially why the theme was altered from the classic Haunted Mansion.
0p
I remember at Haunted Mansion in Orlando, a cast member put up a sign signaling the end of the line for the ride, and he was so good at acting like a ghost that for a second I thought he was one.
Same Here LOL😂

Did u understand the story even though it seems they tell it in french?
I if you so not understand the story, I could tell you what it is :)@@karol72474
they tell it in english aswell@@karol72474
That's it!! Next vaca.. PARIS.
Omg i love Paris! I wanna go to Disney there sooo bad 😢😢 i miss Paris
Amazing how so few people are riding that. I can't imagine the ride being that vacant at Disneyland California.
Basically walked right on when we were at Disneyland California,middle of August,early afternoon and there was like 1 group ahead of us…i remember because I had a front of the line pass(it was my make-a-wish trip) and didn’t have to use it…so it may be rare but it does happen!!
Modern audiences are easily frightened. This is far too scary for most. Jungle cruise is more their style.
When I went to this ride back in 2006, i got on easily like 4 times in a row....
Well, that’s Euro Disney for you.

Well-put, I noticed those two changes and was immediately wondering if it was perhaps to tone down the horror.
@@Perrygallo even if it was toned down I'll say that this ride is still darker compared to the Haunted Mansion.

Yes its unforgivable 😢
Melanie Was Like: "I'm Thinking About Visiting The Flying Dutchman Yeah
Maybe I'll Go Now" *Runs Away*
LOL😂
Le mec de l’accueil fzit son taf à la perfection sérieux 😮
I'm sitting here at my desk imagining I'm at Disneyland Paris & in the que to go on this ride. It's a fabulous but creepy sunset & I can't wait for my turn to board!!❤
Damn, no lines! That already makes that park way better.
They get special permission to enter after or before hours and have to have permission to video record.
This new version is beautiful but is missing the melancholy and mystery of the old one. And Melanie saying "Marry me!" straight up sounds like she's evil, which she isn't originally. Still my favorite ride though.

Since Del Toro didn't do the Haunted Mansion, he definetly should do Phantom Manor!
When I saw the Haunted Mansion movie I was hoping for an end of credits scene, where it pans up to Phantom Manor
Disney’s first non-marvel R-rated film XD
the new haunted mansion movie was supposed to be based on the phantom manor, you can tell because the ending remake of grim grinning ghosts has a southern/western twang to it
Ok i love thats not just french as they kept the vincent price version! Love it! ❤
Wonderful video and great exterior shots!
I did wonder why there was a Western ghost town under the manor but it is next to Big Thunder Mountain/Frontierland and the Boot Hill sign when you leave makes it clear they meant to show the manor must have built over a ghost town. Very neat!
The story of both rides are actually connected as the Phantom is the spirit of the Owner of the mining company from Big Thunder and an earthquake hit that caused the town to be buried.
@@dustyfedora That is cool how they have that interconnected story between the areas of the park!
Part of it was also an opportunity for the Imagineers to dust off the old plans they had for the abandoned Western River Expedition that Disney World Orlando was supposed to get.
The backstory for this Haunted Mansion is profoundly sad. It makes for a compelling ride!
Can you share it? I don't speak french but this looks amazing.

All time fave ride ever. Id love a home like this too its just perfect 😍😍😍
12:18 You killed me when you said "no marry" to ghost bride 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
OOF Poor Melanie 😂
One of the BEST and most phantasmagoric rides in Disneyland, absolutely amazing and wonderful 😱🎃👻💀
Beautifully done, DLP!
You really let the experience do all the talking.
A master class in minimalism…
Great work, thanks!
Very different from the USA versions how cool ❤
I should say this version is more impressive than the US one. The entrance is majestic and creepy, I love it. Thought it needs some modernisation in some parts (the fat west part mostly). One of my favorite theme attraction.
The Disneyland Haunted Mansion is really beautiful, I think. And it’s gorgeous at Halloween.

This ride is single handedly making me want to go to disneyland paris lol....
même
Go for it.
It deserves it
God that shift from upbeat happy music to pure chaotic organ and intense atmosphere background was incredibly well done.
The dining room scene is still one of the sickest amusement park ride feats ever. So cool!
Damn, why didn't i go in this, i thought waiting for this is such a waste off time, but the technique used in this attraction is beautiful!
Don't worry, there's always room for one more 😛
I loooove Haunted Mansion so much, Phantom Manor is beautiful!
Magnifique vidéo ! J'adore cette attraction, je vais me plonger dans la lecture du livre "l'attraction décryptée" avant daller voir le film cette semaine ✨💜
This is my favorite, darker version of HM. There should be a movie centered around it but keep that dark and sinister vibe to it
I love how that employee at the beginning was definitely enjoying scaring people as they entered Lol! This is his definitely his favorite ride to work on.
This is one of my favorite rides at Disneyland Paris.
Amazing video! I love this ride so much 💜💜💜
11:55 Warning, attraction evokes death. 😆 Great low-light footage. 💖
Fantastic! The exterior reminds me of Bates motel house. Not as crowded on the inside as Disney, Anaheim Haunted Mansion.
I really want to travel to Paris to experience this ride
If it wasn't for the Haunted Mansion Holiday in japan, Phantom Manor would have to be the best Haunted Mansion of all.
Beautifully done. Love the bride at the top of the stairs in loading zone

Letteralmente folgorato da questa attrazione spaventosa romantica triste,il top
Oh thank you so much for bringing me back to that ride- it was my favourite as a kid
It’s nice that Vincent Price was the ghost toes. I wish it would be interested if professor Ratigan was behind this.
Le film est vraiment pas mal, je l'ai vu ce soir en 4DX et on est bien plongé dans l'univers de Phantom Manor US :)
this video is brand new right as i search for a ride video! wonderful!
It's interesting that they went with the ghost town / Western theme at the end, instead of just the graveyard. I'm curious how that fits into the narrative.
Europeans love the american west
The phantom manor in the story was built near the thunder mesa. So the western ghosts make sense
J'ai hâte de voir le film
I love this ride!!!
2:28 so beautiful at night😔
Miss there, cant believe it’s nearly 2 weeks since we left.
Looking to go back real soon
Le « il me casse les couilles » à 2.13 est priceless 😂
The best haunted mansion and it's not even close 👻
Love seeing the cast members occasionally scaring guests
Superbe vidéo 👍, superbe qualité 👍 Merci
Slt le ou la fr cv ? 😂
This is great. Like the Pirates in Shanghai, if you haven’t seen it there are many UA-cam clips.

Very well filmed
Great video coverage.
Bucket list! I want to go here and Tokyo!
That’s Vincent price that guy that’s featured in thriller the album by Michael jackson.
Beautiful work
The haunted mansion music while waiting outside is my favorite
Why does Disney Paris look empty? Especially that ride. It’s kinda sad
Excellent quality work. Now I don't have to go to see it!
Oh wow what a beautful shot at 2:30

I was there yesterday! Such an amazing ride with such an amazing scenario
I was there a few months ago and i loved the ride with the new designs. 😍
Very cool! Merci beaucoup!!!!
My favorite haunted mansion!
I liked the ghost town. It looks like a rather high spirited place.
Amazing 😮❤
How is there no line
Vincent Price is the English speaking Ghost Host in Paris? That's cool.
Wonder what they charge for a one day ticket???
I knew nothing about the backstory of this ride before but I already had the impression that it's dark and boy I wasn't wrong. I wish Disney would create a movie about this.
Wonderful video of a truly unique ride 👏 ❤💀
Awesome video
Le moment où c'est qu'il a dit tu m'as cassé les couilles ça m'a tué😂😂😂
Why is the ride so empty? Where are all the people?
7:14 THIS is what Disneyland needs to do in their HM Load Area.
I adore phantom manor, you have to ride it multiple times to catch every detail
Nice filming!
I loved it better 😢han rhe haunted mansion 😅n calufornia. This one was very well made s😊 m😮ch more details. Thank tou for posting this video.
I've been on that ride at Disney world Florida with dream flight when I was a kid 🇬🇧
DAMN! Is EVERYTHING better in Paris?!?! Time for a vaca
I love how this one is a dark romance
Wantvery busy when did u go
