Portrait of the Ocean Liner Captain
The Ocean Liner Captain is the central haunt of the Haunted Mansion Parlor aboard the Disney Cruise Line ship, the Disney Treasure.
Background[]
The Ocean Liner Captain haunts a room somewhere in the Corridor of Doors done in the style of a 1920s ocean liner lounge but maintaining some of the Mansion's decor.
Press materials for the Parlor included a letter where the Captain introduced himself thusly:
- "To the reader of this letter, welcome. I have always loved the sea. As soon as I learned to walk, I toddled right into the ocean. In my later years, I served proudly as Captain of a luxurious ocean liner, every voyage its own adventure. In fact, my fiancé and I were to be wed at sea, a celebration of my two greatest loves. But alas, it was not to be. My untimely demise saw to that. In life, I treasured my private parlor, where I often entertained passengers and guests. I cannot enjoy it the way I did before—but mind you, I do still enjoy it. I hope you will visit. In my parlor, all guests—dear or departed, invited or otherwise—are welcome. Sincerely, The Captain"
- ―The Captain's letter
The captain appears to have been murdered by his bride, a homicidal mermaid in disguise, with his body being disposed of within a monstrous aquarium, with his captain's hat being all that remains.
Trivia[]
- The Captain's portrait is based on that of the Aging Man, turning into a skeleton with flashes of lightning.
