Chicken Pot Pie Soup (served in a bread bowl for ultimate awesomeness) can currently be found at The Harbour Galley!
Review: Haunted Mansion Dole Whip Special Occasion Cake at Napa Rose in Disneyland
If you follow our Disneyland correspondent Heather Sievers on her Instagram, you know she’s got a bit of a thing for the Haunted Mansion. (And hey, don’t we all 🙂 ? )
Well, lucky for us, Heather’s friends and family treated her right for her recent birthday by ordering a totally epic specialty cake for her birthday dinner at Napa Rose at the Grand Californian Resort in Disneyland.
It’s the Haunted Mansion-themed cake, and It. Is. EVERYTHING.
Let’s just break this thing down for a minute. First is the perfectly eerie purple frosting with black Haunted Mansion wallpaper accents and Haunted Mansion-approved script, written by some of the greatest ghost writers the literary world has ever known, I presume… [Read more…]

Photo Tour: Memento Mori Haunted Mansion Specialty Shop in Disney World’s Magic Kingdom
Welcome, Foolish Mortals
… to Memento Mori, the new Haunted Mansion gift shop in Magic Kingdom’s Liberty Square!
