TEST
==Attraction History==
When Disney was initially planning out Walt Disney World's Fantasyland, Snow White's Scary Adventures originally opened as was not going to be included in the new park. Although a popular Disneyland ride since 1955, Imagineers decided that they did not want to simply copy Disneyland's Fantasyland dark rides (Snow White's Adventures on October 1, 1971 with the rest of the [[Magic KingdomMr. Toad's Wild Ride]]. Like many of the Magic Kingdom, and [[Peter Pan's opening day attractionsFlight]]) <ref name= "Korkis"> This information comes Imagineer Tony Baxter, as interviewed here: https://allears.net/wdw-chronicles-year-one-the-wdw-that-almost-was/ </ref>. Instead, Disney planned on replacing Snow White had originally been 's Adventures with a Disneyland Sleeping Beauty attraction, and was copied for inclusion that would have had guests come face to face with Maleficent in her dragon form <ref name="Korkis"/>. Imagineers were overruled by Roy O. Disneyhowever, when the later stipulated that the Fantasyland dark rides be brought into the Magic Kingdom <ref name="Korkis"/>, and thus Snow White's newest parkAdventures opened with the rest of the Magic Kingdom on October 1, 1971 <ref name="widen"> http://www.omniluxe.net/wyw/swa.htm </ref>.
While Snow White's Adventures proved to be popular upon its opening, the attraction was the frequent target of complaints by guests. Like its Disneyland counterpart, the original version of Snow White's Adventures did not feature the title character at all. Instead, the attraction was designed so that guests took the place of the film's heroine and experienced the events as if they were Snow White. Because of the esoteric approach that Imagineers took to telling the attraction's story, many guests did not understand that they were essentially Snow White's stand in, and frequently asked where the princess was. The second complaint that was often lofted at the attraction, was that it was simply too scary. The ethos of Snow White's Adventures was dark and menacing, a tone that many guests did not expect from a Fantasyland dark ride.
In response to guest concerns about the frightening nature of Snow White's Adventures, Disney attempted two remedies in order to warn guests. The first change came in 1983 when Disney renamed began referring to the attraction as "Snow White's Scary Adventures"<ref name="widen"/>. This rename, in conjunction with the addition of a sing warning guests to "beware the Wicked Witch" as she may frighten small children's on the ride, was Disney's attempt to prepare guests for the dark tone of the attractionthat awaited guests<ref name="widen"/>.===1994 Refurbishment===The original version of Snow White's Scary Adventures continued to run until the Fall of 1994, when the attraction closed for refurbishment. During the closure of the attraction, Disney attempted to answer the two complaints that often plagued Snow White's Scary Adventures. To this end, a large number of changes were made that changed both the story the attraction told, as well as its ethos.
The original version of first noticeable change to Snow White's Scary Adventures continued to run until was the summer addition of 1994, when a third row in the attraction closed for refurbishmentride vehicles <ref name="Ken"> http://www.

Inside the attractionitself, Disney attempted to make answer the two complaints Castle Courtyard scene was expanded so that often plagued a vignette showing Snow White's Scary Adventureslazing in the sun was now present. To The Evil Queen in this end, scene was also moved to a large number of changes were made that changed both new window and no longer parted the story curtains.

After moving traveling through the forest again, guests reached would eventually reach the Seven Dwarf's Diamond MineCottage. Here unseen eyes continued to watch. Inside the cottage, anthropomorphic objects with frightened eyes surrounded guests. Guests then entered the next room, where "the Seven Dwarfs were seen climbing their stairs. Full of trepidation, the Dwarfs seemed to be climbing towards a million diamonds" glimmered all arounddemon-like shadow which sat atop the staircase. Despite In this scene, the beauty of eye motif that carried throughout the jewelsattraction, and continued in the visually impressive "endless" mineshaftform of little owl carvings on the stairway's banister. At the end of the cottage scene, guests once again came face to face with the Wicked Witch remained omnipresent, who appeared at the cottage door, offering her apple.
Once again surviving the witch's murderous attempt, the ride vehicles continued deeper into the mineshaft, which seemed to be collapsing. At the end of the shaft, a speeding minecart almost collided with guests, as a cackling Witch could be heard in the in the distance. Entering the mine's vault, guests could see giant diamonds all around. As they headed for the door however, the Wicked Witch could be seen above, prying a giant diamond loose, and attempting to drop it on guests. At this moment, guests could hear the Witch screech "Goodbye, dearie" and the door vanished with crash.
Having apparently been killed by the Wicked Witch, guests entered a short passageway, where stars were illuminated around them, and strobe lights were in effect. In the distance, guests could hear a distorted version of the witchWitch's cackle, before exiting the ride.
===Second Version 1994-2012===
Like its predecessor, the second version of Snow White's Scary Adventures began with guests leaving the load area and circling around the Wishing Well in the castle courtyard. Moving deeper into the courtyard, guests would then see Snow White, sitting in the sun and holding a dove on her finger. While the scene seemed serene, the Evil Queen looked on in her window from above. Leaving the courtyard, guests moved on into the Queen's castle. Inside the Queen's castle, guests came face to face with the Slave in the Magic Mirror, who pronounced "Alas, Snow White is the Fairest One of All". At this point, the vehicles took a sharp turn and continued into the Queen's Throne Room. Here, the Queen could be seen standing in front of her mirror, with outstretched arms. As guests passed by, the Queen would transform into the Wicked Witch before guest's eyes. After witnessing the awful transformation, guests continued deeper into the castle, first arriving at the dungeon. Here, a skeleton could be seen on the floor and the red eyes of rats ominous glared at guests as they passed by. In the dungeon scene, guest would also see the Wicked Witch at her caldron, working on a spell. Here, she would explain that "When Snow White bites the apple, she will sleep forever, awakened only by Love's First Kiss." before maniacally laughing. Exiting the castle, guests ran into the Hunstman in the forest outside. Here, he warned Snow White to run and hide in the forest. Heeding her advice, Snow White was then shown petrified by the dark and monstrous trees that surrounded her. Entering the Dark Forest, guests travelled deeper into darkness. Although the Castle Lake scene was largely removed from the attraction, guests still saw the Wicked Witch float by on her boat, and a few crocodile logs. Similarly to the rest of the attraction, both the forest, and the monster trees that resided within, were tampered down. Exiting the forest, guests approached the Seven Dwarfs Cottage. Outside, Snow White's animal friends could be seen, welcoming guests to the house. Entering the cottage, guests came upon Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs who were joyously singing and dancing. Further in the cottage, guests saw some of Snow White's animal friends frighteningly looking through the window. Ahead, guests realized the reason for the animal's expression. Here, Snow White was tempted by the Wicked Witch and her red apple. To encourage the Princess to eat, the Wicked Witch noted, "That's right, dearie! Now, take a bite and all your dreams will come true." As guests exited the castle and headed back for the woods, Doc exclaimed "It's the Quicked Ween -- the Wicked Queen! Come on men!" As the Dwarfs chased the the Witch through the forest, lighting would illuminate the had standing on a nearby cliff. Although guests couldn't see the chase itself, the Dwarfs continued to chase the Witch until they reached the diamond mine. Inside the mineshaft, guests would see Bashful and Sneezy continuing their search for the Witch before exclaiming that she was getting away. Exiting the mine, guests found themselves back outside, in the cliffs. Here, five of the Dwarfs, (everyone minus Bashful and Sneezy who were shown in the mine) pointed to the Wicked With who stood perched atop a cliff, ready to drop a boulder on guests below. As the Wicked Witch shrieked " "I'll crush you, fools!" before a bolt of lightning struck her ledge and plummeted her into darkness. After the defeat of the Witch, guests continued on to a suddenly bright and cheerful forest where the Prince looked over a sleeping Snow White, prepared to kiss her. Guests then passed under a bridge, where Dopey and some forest friends waved goodbye. Nearby, Snow White and the Princess too waved goodbye, and farewell's from the Dwarfs could be heard in the background. ==Second Version 1994-2012==Like its predicessor, the second version of Snow White's Scary Adventrues began with guests leaving the load area and circiling around the Wishing Well in the castle courtyardCourtyard.
