The Disney theme park resort, which opened in 1972 and has operated in Walt Disney World since then, is celebrating the 50th birthday of the original park this weekend.
The park’s original theme park concept, called The Haunted Mansion, is now part of the Disney theme parks in Anaheim and Florida.
In addition to the Haunted Mansion and the Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie, there are also themed parks in the U.S. and overseas.
Disney World, which has a population of more than 100 million people, is the second-largest theme park in the world behind Universal Studios Hollywood in California.
A special tribute to The Haunted House was unveiled this week by the park’s senior vice president of marketing and corporate communications, Andrew Smith, at the park, which features a statue of The Haunted Castle.
“The Haunted Mansion is here for everyone to enjoy,” Smith said.
“It’s a family park, it’s a fun, family experience and it’s an attraction that you’re going to remember forever.”
