Pre-ride entertainment still turned off?

[alm99]

We, family of 5, went to Disney World last February. We will be down in Florida again this year and are contemplating spending a day at the park(s). Last year pre-ride entertainment, ie the stretching room at the HM were not in use. Is this still the case across Disney?

I believe all the pre-shows are back.

pre shows are back as well as some interactive line aspects such as in the Winnie the Pooh and HM queues.

As others have said, they are back. Having the Haunted Mansion stretching room back, adds so much to the vibe. So glad it's back!

That's one positive I miss from the all the covid measures, when they're all turned on - they really slow down lines. You just whip through HM without the stretching room. It really showcased how much the omni-mover rides shine for taking capacity.

The problem with flying through the HM queue like that is you don’t get the pause to let your eyes adjust to the low light inside the attraction. And it’s very necessary—there was absolutely a noticeable difference when I did it around Memorial Day when pre shows were not running vs. July 4th when they were. With no stretching room just being punted into the dark I basically couldn’t see anything for the first part of the attraction.

I was just there last week and all the pre shows were running but it seemed like Haunted Mansion’s was shortened. Same with Tower of Terror.
