I don't know if you've ever been to any Disney Parks. They're parks that basically have everything you could ask for; from princesses to different types of magical stuff that you can ride or see. Of course, like most amusement parks, these parks also have their own conspiracy theories. BuzzFeed asked their users to share the scariest story they've heard and here's what we got. You will never look at Mickey the same again!
Legend has it that a man stood up on the coaster and got his head cut off. Though this has been debunked, a man DID stand up on Disneyland’s Matterhorn in 1964, hitting his head, which resulted in his death.
Cast members have said they hear him giggling and mimicking the “hurry back” lady after the ride shuts down at night.
Cast members often SWEAR that they see the dolls blink or appear in different places than the day before.
An employee was cleaning the apartment shortly after Disney died, and the lamp in the window kept turning on by itself. Now the park keeps the lamp on as a tribute to Disney. People swear they occasionally see the curtains moving on their own.
This has supposedly become so much of a problem over the years that employees have been trained on how to handle a guest when they think remains are being scattered around Disney.
The story goes like this: A cast member had a heart attack while loading guests onto the ride, and died in the building. His spirit haunts the ride now. Platform D is the supposed ~spooky spot~ that current employees are scared of.
“Cast members had the hardest time keeping the book in the upright position. The table would often be turned over, or the book would be somewhere else. They finally had to replace it.”
“My sister’s roommate did the college program and she said that if they didn’t say ‘Good morning, George’ and ‘Goodnight, George’ at the beginning and end of the day, respectively, the ride would shut down and they’d have problems with it all day.”
Two brothers snuck out and hid on the island until park closing. They tried swimming back to the main park, the older with the younger one on his back, but the older one went under. They found his body the next morning.
“A young kid died on the ride by jumping from car to car. We SWEAR his spirit haunted the stockroom and he’d open the emergency exit doors on the track that were locked.”
This was one of the most tragic events in Disney Park history. After the incident in 1974, the ride was rebranded to the Carousel of Progress and eventually shut down altogether.
While the ghost part may not be true, a man DID die after trying to sneak into the park in 1966. Thomas Cleveland climbed a wall onto the monorail track. When spotted by security, he bolted and was hit by the monorail.
This is generally assumed to be untrue. While passengers were being evacuated for “safety concerns,” one lady took pictures. One image showed someone hanging from the ceiling above the ride, but many think it’s a prop.
“Mr. Wedway died while helping build the ride, and never got to see it finished. Sometimes he’ll ride next to you. When I worked at Disney we’d have guests screaming that there was a guy next to them on the ride who was there but fell out!”
Okay, this ended up being untrue. People speculated this was the reason for the delayed opening of the ride, but the unfortunate true reason was Walt Disney’s death in 1966.
It was called River Country and was open from the ’70s until 2001. People who’ve documented their explorations of the park in recent years have been dealt heavy repercussions by the Disney Company.
Many people thought Walt Disney was a member of the Freemasons, a group that, in many conspiracy theories, is believed to be run by the Illuminati, in an attempt to establish the New World Order. CREEPY.
