Revision as of 22:19, 22 May 2014

Dlhmcupola — The cupola on the exterior of the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland.

In the , a cupola (a small, most often dome-like, structure on top of a buildin) is the location of the suicide-by-hanging of our Ghost Host

The exterior of the Disneyland Haunted Mansion features a hexagonal cupola with six curtained windows. On top of the cupola is a schooner weathervane.

Once the lights go out in the Stretching Room, guests can see the interior of an octagonal cupola with four curtainless windows, in which a skeletal corpse (the body of the Ghost Host) hangs from a beam, illuminated by lightning flashes in the night sky.

Though they have the same style, the exterior cupola windows have three horizontal muntins, while the windows of the cupola containing the hanging body have four.

The cupola on the exterior of the Walt Disney World (and Tokyo Disney) Haunted Mansion has no windows, and features a bat weathervane.
