Haunted Mansion Halloween Village Display Final Images

Well, here are images of the final display. It really looked great when viewed from the outside at night. The kids loved it.

Disneyland Haunted Mansion Diorama. Lighting Effects, showing Attic below and graveyard above. Off to the right top is the Disneyland Haunted Mansion Paper Model. So, just like in the actual ride, you go down below ground to get to the rooms.

Disneyland Haunted Mansion Diorama. Lighting Effects, showing Conservatory, Stretching Room below and Haunted Mansion Paper Model above.

Disneyland Haunted Mansion Diorama. Stretching Room with lighing effects. The purple glow in front is from a black light. The "candles" are LEDs. The glowing ghost is a toy I found over at Target before Halloween for $2. To the left is the Conservatory.

Disneyland Haunted Mansion Paper Model (200% blowup from original). Lighting Effects. Most of the lighting is from a Black Light. Since the white card stock glows under black light the whole model glows. In front are some practical lights (pumpkins, skulls, and such. On the right is the Ghostbusters Ectomobile from last year's display. The green lighting is a mini spot light behind the mansion.

Disneyland Haunted Mansion Paper Model, side view. The large white thing is a curtain. The glowing orange blobs on the roof are a light up pumpkin necklace.

Disneyland Haunted Mansion Paper Model. Same angle as above but with daylight instead of practical lighting. This is a great comparison and shows just how much a little bit of lighting does to enhance the display.

Here are two pictures showing the finished Disneyland Haunted Mansion Rooms Dioramas. You can see in the bottom picture how these are placed below the Halloween Village display, the Stretching Room is basically below the Haunted Mansion paper model which is right behind the Ghostbusters car (from last years display).

These pictures are using daylight, the display is much better at night with the built in lighting, but these show all the details. In the top photo I added in a McDonalds kids toy, this one of Madam Leota in her Crystal Ball. The bottom picture shows the finished Conservatory and the Stretching Room with a Jack Skellington purchased at Disneyland, a light up Ghost from Target, and the Caretaker and Dog.

The 3rd part of the 4 part Disneyland Haunted Mansion Diorama set is the Stretching Room. This was a quick build based upon 4 bookmarks available at Haunted Dimensions, link at right.

Disneyland Haunted Mansion Stretching Room Diorama, approximately 1/12 scale. This one is real easy, mostly just printouts with some practical lighting.

Here is the finished diorama, with practical lighting effects. Below are several build pictures of this simple diorama.

This Disneyland Haunted Mansion Stretching Room Diorama is based around 4 bookmarks by Ray Kiem and his Haunted Dimensions. Link on the right. It was his model of the Conservatory Coffin and these bookmarks that gave me the idea to do this 4 part diorama.

Here are the 4 bookmarks from Haunted Dimensions. The pictures slide in and out of the bookmark, but I am using them glued in the fully extended position. They are sitting inside of the basic 1 foot square diorama box, this time in white foam core (I ran out of black). The back wall is simply 4 foam core panels.

The back wall was covered with standard wood grain contact paper available at most hardware and home improvement stores.

Here is a top view showing the wall panels lined up against the display walls.

And here are the walls with the contact paper applied.

In this picture you can see that the bookmarks have been glued to the wall panels. The floor is made from several printouts of the same wall pattern used in the Disneyland Haunted Mansion Attic diorama. This time cut into triangles and glued to the floor. The extra white spaces were filled in with more of the wall print.

Disneyland Haunted Mansion Diorama finished, with practical lighting effects.

And here again is the finished Disneyland Haunted Mansion Stretching Room Diorama. The lights were some miniature battery operated Christmas lights that I had layout around from last year. These were picked up in a craft store and are designed for use in Christmas Village displays. Installing them was simplicity itself, I simply poked a pencil through the front of the display at the top of each candle in the bookmarks and stuck the lights through from the back side. The figure is a Disneyland Haunted Mansion Action Figure of the Caretaker. He may or may not make it into the final display, I haven't decided yet.

Just one diorama to go, that is a bit of the hallway showing the Demon Clock and a doorway. With of course that spooky eyes wallpaper.
