Haunted Mansion
It had been 3 years, but I don’t remember the piano (organ) at the beginning of the ride on the right side. How long has that been there?

I think it's always been there.

The piano and the floating candelabra were the two things that scared my son on our trip in 1994.
Took us years to get him back on that ride.

It's always fun to discover things that you have missed before.....for years I didn't notice the shadow of the piano player on the floor moving in time with the piano strikes.....

I agree - the floating candelabra is rather freaky!

It's funny, even with long time Disney World visitors, it seems like we ALL do that. Notice things on rides that we have been on 100 times before and ask - is that new, or has that always been there?
Sometimes changes are subtle when they do happen.
I think when you've been enough, you start looking in different directions and angles than you normally would - giving you a fresh perspective.
That and some selective memory

That floating candelabra is my favorite effect on the entire ride. I dunno....it just seems to give the mansion some depth. Looking down spooky corridors is infinitely creepier than just going through the rooms.

The Music Room is a Walt Disney World exclusive, and has been in the attraction since it opened in 1971. As far as I know, the "Haunted Mansions" (and Phantom Manor) do not have the piano with the shadow of the "spirit" tickling the ivories.

Sometimes I just want to hire you as my Disney guide for a few days . . .
I'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

That is so interesting about the dancers!

Correct - next time you're on the ride, watch the "ghost" dancers - the ladies are leading the men.
Also in the ballroom - is "Grandma" from Carousel of Progress. On the far right, near the fireplace.

I do this all the time! Wonder if something has always been there, or if it's new. It took me a long time to notice the turning handles on the doors. Love that!
I know the stairs and the floating instruments are newer additions (I think!). Anything else?
Oh! And I finally found out what happened to Rosita on this last trip!
