D23 just ended, and this year we got so many details on several of the projects and new lands coming to Disney World, especially Villains Land.

Including a Mirror Realm Dark Ride , and today we are going to be diving into all of the details and concept art Disney has shared about this brand-new ride so far!

During D23, Disney gave us the most details we’ve ever gotten about this new land coming to Magic Kingdom. They confirmed the name, gave us a glimpse into the design of the land, shared information about a Maleficent Roller Coaster, and, of course, that there would be a Mirror Realm Dark Ride.

Disney has shared that this dark ride will feature many fan-favorite villains and be hosted by the Magic Mirror himself. According to Disney, “You’ll find the Magic Mirror where the Evil Queen keeps him in the catacombs beneath her pristine palace.  After making your way to him,  he’ll magically transport you into his mystical Mirror Realm to see things on the other side of the mirror.  There, in his ethereal realm,  you’ll be transfixed by countless Disney Villains conjured in ways only the Magic Mirror can do.” This ride will use a combination of special effects and practical sets to bring both the villains and the Mirror Realm to life.

Taking a closer look at the concept art for this attraction, you can see shards of glass reflecting Cruella, Jafar, Dr. Facilier, Scar, and Ursula. This most likely means these characters will be featured on the attraction!

The ride vehicle itself appears to be a boat floating along a river of smoke, but despite its looks, Disney has confirmed that this will not be a boat ride, and instead will be a dark ride through the Mirror Realm.

There is also shattered glass all throughout the design, which makes us think that the shattered glass will play a large role in the design of the ride and in bringing the Mirror Realm to life.
