The moon was on a black forklift type pole so looks like it can be easily lowered down. I am thinking it's the same type of thing they use to raise maleficent for fantasmic. I saw it as we were exiting the park and it just looked like a huge lightbulb but it wasn't turned on. We were asking the CM (the Haunted Mansion butler in the picture) what it was and he said they were testing out halloween items for the new fireworks show. We were just standing there looking at the moon thing and then this white sheet thing starts flying around on the zip line. Nothing was illuminated so it took us awhile to figure out it was zero. It was on the zip line going around the castle just like dumbo does. The moon thing had to be erected in fantasyland I am assuming as we walked through frontierland and adventureland and it wasn't there. When we first entered the park for the Haunted Mansion 40th event it wasn't set up yet. It was only if you looked back at the castle that you noticed it. Most of our friends didn't even see the moon thing. Also 1/2 of main street was decorated for Christmas with all the decorations so they must have been doing some filming for the upcoming holidays.
