To commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland, we tracked down former Creative Director for Walt Disney Imagineering, Tom Morris.

We explore the rumors, true and preposterous, of the attraction’s origins, as well as some of the unsung heroes of Disneyland’s early design and construction.
