Book with scenes taking place at Disney.

The recent podcast with the coverage of that horror flick taking place at Disney made me wonder.

If I had a book in which I used various parts of Disney as the setting, how would Disney legal view that?

I'm not entirely sure they would care?

Cory Doctorow published a book called "Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom" which is set at the Magic Kingdom for some point in the future.

The major setting of the book is the Haunted Mansion and Adventureland/Liberty Square.

Back in June 2012, we interviewed a guy about his book "The Disneyland Quest". I believe he's written a sequel by now.

And last week, Michael chatted with author Kate Abbott about her book "Disneylanders".

Both novels take place in Disneyland. I'm sure there are others.

Ridley Pearson's Kingdom Keepers series (YA) was not only written about Disney but published by them under Hyperion.

I am sure there are more.
