{{Quotation|"Do not pull down on the safety bar please, I will lower it for you. Heed this warning, the spirits will materialize ONLY if you remain quietly seated, at all times. Oh yes, and no flash pictures please, we spirits are frighfully sensitive, to bright lights."}}
===The Libraryand Music Parlor===
Now in their Doom Buggies, guests exit the loading area, go up a stairwell and enter a landing. Here two more of the sinister portraits can be found, and various "changing pictures" can be seen. The changing pictures appear to normal enough at first, but when lightning strikes the pictures become much more ghoulish (an example of this: A portrait of a young lady changes in a portrait of Medusa when the lightning strikes). Guests also can see a floating candelabrum in the room, a sign of things to come.

===The Staircases & Endless Hallway===
 
When the Haunted Mansion was renovated in 2007, a new scene was added to the attraction. Known as the staircase scene, it is seen after guests leave the music parlor and before they see the endless hallway. The staircase scene is a space with various staircases and doorways to other dimensions in it. The staircases look like a maze, and even seem to defy gravity. Some of the staircases twist and turn, and others even go upside down. On the staircases ghostly, glowing footprints appear going up or down the stairs and then fade away.
 
When leaving the music room and entering the staircase scene, the Ghost Hosts makes an offer to guests:
 
{{Quotation|"They have all, retired here to the Haunted Mansion, actually we have 999 happy haunts here, but there's room for one thousand. Any volunteers?? If you should decide to join us, final arrangements, may be made at the end of the tour."}}
 
After seeing the staircase scene, the Doom Buggies move past the endless hallway. The hallway seems to go on forever, and only a floating single candelabrum populates the hall. Next to the halls entrance is a moving suit of armor, which used to house a cast member who would jump out and scare guests.
