Changes

The original queue for the Haunted Mansion featured a hillside graveyard full of humorous tombstones. In 2010 however, the queue was given an overhaul. Now when guests reach a certain point in the line (the former location of the turnstiles), they have the option of going splitting off to the left or right. If they go The path on their right, they will go leads guests directly into the mansionattraction. But, if they If guests choose to go the leftside however, guests they can experience what Disney calls the new "graveyard queue".

In If guests choose the graveyard queue , one of the first things that guests will they see is a family of marble busts. The busts feature both Besides showing the faces of the various family members, but the busts also a depiction of a small weapon , and a humorous epitaph. When guests pass, each bust will whisper a clue as to who killed them. It is up to guests to solve the mystery and find out who killed who. The family is comprised of(epitaph in quotes):

*Bertie - –“ Avid hunter and expert shot, in the end that’s what he got.”

*Aunt Florence - Never – “Never did a dishonorable deed. Yet was found face down in canary seed.”

*Uncle Jacob - Greed – “Greed was the poison he had swallowed. He went first, the others followed. His killer’s face he surely knew, now try to discover who killed who.”

*The Twins, Wellington & Forsythia - Departed – “Departed life while in their beds, with identical bumps on identical heads.”

*Cousin Maude - Our – “Our sleeping beauty who never awoke, the night her dreams went up in smoke.”

The first of three crypts that Continuing on through the queue, guests will pass is by a series of crypts beginning with the Composer's Crypt. Here , musical instruments are carved into the both sides of the crypt. When and when they are pushed on, ; the musical instruments play instrument plays a portion of the attractions theme song "Grim Grinning Ghosts". One side of the crypt features basic instruments (such as those used by the band in the graveyard scene), while the other side features more ghoulish looking instruments. The Composers Crypt also features a large pipe organ (identical to the one in the Ballroom scene) which plays Grim Grinning Ghosts when they keys are pushed onwith banshee heads and a red-eyed raven sitting atop it.

The next crypt that guests come upon in the queue is the Sea Captain'sCaptains. An inscription on the crypt reads:

The When looking at the Sea Captain's , guests will notice that his arms, leg and hat are all sticking out of his green crypt. The crypt seems to be full of water, as and water flows out of cracks in the crypt and squirts guests as they walk by. The Sea Captain can be also heard singing a "drunken sailor" song, and from time to time even sneezes, shooting water everywhere. On the more morbid side, the Sea Captain can also be heard drowning as bubbles rush to the top of the crypt. If Finally, if guests try to plug a hole one of the many holes in the crypt, another one will begin leaking!to leak.
