There have been a handful of events and happenings announced to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Disneyland’s The Haunted Mansion. Haunted Orange County is hosting a “Swinging Wake,” and Midsummer Scream is hosting a Haunted Mansion 50th Anniversary panel, but we hadn’t heard of anything official happening from Disney until today.
