The Endless Hallway is a scene appearing in every version of the Haunted Mansion except for Mystic Manor

Appearances

Disneyland

In the original Disneyland version of the attraction, the Endless Stairway is the first scene which guests are exposed to after entering the Doom Buggies and riding up the stairs to the "second floor". The Hallway is in between a subtly moving Suit of Armour and an armchair designed to have a "face" and when looking into the hallway guests see a dark, seemingly endless corridor lined with doors. A lone candelabra floats in midair halfway down it. Guests travel past this and on to the Conservatory.

Disneyworld/Tokyo Disneyland

The appearance of the Hallway scene in Disneyworld and Tokyo Disneyland, the Corridor is virtually identical to it's original counterpart but here appears after the Endless Staircase scene.

Phantom Manor

In Phantom Manor the Endless Hallway still appears as the first scene in the Doombuggy but here it has Melanie Ravenswood floating down it instead of the Candelabra.

Effect

The effect for the Endless Hallway is relatively simple, the candelabra is actually very small and uses forced perspective to appear as if it is down the hallway and it rotates back and forth on wires to simulate the floating effect. The Hallway itself achieves it's infinite appearance through the use of a full-length mirror which endlessly reflects the actual hallway. To obscure the guest's vision there is a transparent black scrim placed in front of the candelabra which darkens the corridor's reflection. To complete the effect the backside of the candelabra is black in order to minimize it's reflection

Trivia

  • The Appearance of the armchair is heavily inspired by concept art made by Rolly Crump for his Museum of the Weird attraction
