The Sea Captain's arms, leg and hat are all sticking out of his green crypt. The crypt seems to be full of water, as water comes out of cracks in the crypt and squirts guests. The Sea Captain can be 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 drowsing as bubbles rush to the top of the crypt.
If guests try to plug a hole in the crypt, another one will begin leaking!
===The Library Crypt===
The final crypt guests come across in the Haunted Mansion queue is the Library crypt. Two sides of the crypt look like the bookcases found inside the mansion. Like the inside ones, these bookshelves hold books that move in and out by themselves. Guests can also push the books themselves, adding some entertainment for younger guests. The books on the cases are marked with ghostly symbols. These symbols each correlate with a letter, giving guests the task of deciphering the message.
The third side of the crypt features a glowing book surrounded by decaying flowers. In the book, the ghost of the "Poetess Prudence Pock" is working on her poetry. Prudence will usually need guests to help her finish the poems, by giving her rhyming words. A sign above the book says:
{{Quotation| "Her plaintive pleas can still be heard: O muse provide the perfect word"}}
The final side of the crypt has a plaque dedicated to Prudence which reads:
{{Quotation| "Here lies Poetess Prudence Pock, she died it's said from writers block}}
===The Tombstones===
Main Article: [[Haunted Mansion Tombstones]]
The original graveyard in the Haunted Mansion queue is still in place. After the 2010 refurbishment, stones marking the burial places of the hitchhiking ghosts were added. The headstones that paid homage to Marc Davis and X Atencio have been moved from the hillside to the middle of the interactive queue. Likewise, the tombstone marking the resting place of Master Gracey has been moved into the interactive queue.
For more information about the graveyard including a list of the tombstones and their meaning go to the [[Haunted Mansion Tombstones]] page.
