Last of Haunted Disneyland Stories...?!

(at least for now! I'm sure the spirts are restless and will continue to scare!)

These stories are all from cast members, past and present!

Sami R.

It was always really haunting to go back stage here. I rarely ever went because I always felt like someone was following or watching me.

Dawn B.

The stock room of the Star Trader that shares a wall with a section of track is also haunted. Cast Members avoid going there alone and feel like they are being pushed down the stairs leading up to it...

There is also a spirit of a child that haunts the area around the Splash Mountain drop. He likes to peak over the counter at the Cast Member who closes the Briar Patch merchandise location there.

Susanne S.

I had two friends that worked the canoe ride and they both said they had ghostly experiences of someone touching them or seeing something out in the water but there was nothing there.

Laurie W.

Star Traders Stockrooms are also haunted. I always felt being watched and hearing kids voices laughing. I remember going up to the 4th level stockroom getting plush and hearing children voices.

Lisa K.

Back in the day, cast members would have a locker in a locker room to keep their belongings during their shift and it would also be a place to change out of street clothes and into costume. My locker was inside Space Mountain and, on a few occasions, I’d be in there all alone and hear someone say something and then a door that went to the ride would open and close. A bit creepy late at night.

Sara W.

OMG. My locker was in Space Mountain, too. And yes, it was not uncommon to hear voices and doors opening/shutting. You would look to see if another cast member was around, but the place would be empty.

DeeAynn D.

I worked on Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. I was walking the track after closing and just around the bend from the first lift, I saw a shadow on the mountain wall walking along with me. It was not my shadow. This shadow figure had on a baseball cap; I did not wear my costume hat when doing a track walk. I saw this figure on several occasions when I closed. Yes, I talked to him every time.

Sherilyn B.

I was working alone to restock Five and Dime. (The merchandise store in Toontown.) Toontown had closed for the night and all the other Cast Members had left. While re-stocking shirts a mug fell off the shelf on the other side of the store. Again no one else in the store but me and I was a good 20 feet away. The shelf is super sturdy and heavy wood attached to the wall.

Pamela B.

When I worked 3rd shift I was cleaning the castle and got pushed plenty of times while on the stairs. The lady who haunts it says it’s her castle and she wants people out.

Vico V.

I worked at the Haunted Mansion and a couple times at night I would be at the boarding area all alone. I would hear people chatting and laughing faintly as if they were coming from the elevator, so I’d step up and be ready to do my lines… But nobody showed up.

Deanna N.

There’s a story of the two little girls that died and frequently haunt the walkway from Fantasyland to Frontierland. You can hear them laughing on the Island too. They apparently died in a flood in the early 1900’s. Before Anaheim became Disney there was a really bad flood. Supposedly they were the farmers children.

Cherilyn B.

I’ve worked as a merchandising stock Cast Member at Star Trader. The 4th floor is indeed creepy. Even before I was told it was haunted. I always felt uneasy up there. In the early 90s a Cast Member named Maria came flying down the stairs after the sock boxes started to pull out by themselves!

Interesting to hear the behind the scenes of spooky stories from Disney Cast Members!

So intriguing I plan to hunt down more ghost stories!

Until then...!

 ANOTHER SPOOKY LEGEND!

TODAY WE LEARN OF THE SAD LEGEND OF THE IDAHO WATER BABY MASSACRE

Creepy, yes.

Beyond sad, yes.

Fact of fiction - you be the judge...

Outside of Pocatello, Idaho is the beautiful state park known as Massacre Rocks. This state park is known for the role it played during the Oregon Trail era since many settlers passed through the area. What is now Interstate 84 used to be the same exact trail that the Oregon Trail emigrants traveled on.

The Snake River runs right through the Massacre Rocks area and is believed to be the main spot of paranormal activity. It is said that the river is haunted by supernatural beings called Water Babies, which are the spirits of drowned babies. But what is the story behind the deaths of these babies?

The story varies depending on which legend you hear, but the thought is the same. A popular belief is that the Native Americans who first inhabited the area went through a harsh famine. The natives decided there wasn't enough food to feed any more people, so mothers were forced to go down to the river and drown their babies as they were born. Other variations of the myth say that this happened among a group of settlers during the 1800s.

It is said after the babies were drowned, they changed and grew fins and gills in order to survive in the water by eating small fish. People have reported seeing these water spirits playing in the canals and rivers in the Massacre Rocks area.

It is even said that these spirits try to lure humans to their deaths in order to avenge their sad fates. There's no denying the beauty of the area today and the rich history that goes along with it. Of course, there is no way of telling whether the sad legend behind Massacre Rocks is true or not. But if you go down the river bank, you may just hear the distant sound of a baby crying for its mother.

Next stop...ILLINOIS !
