1. Donald Duck's middle name is Fauntleroy.


2.In Disney's Fantasia, the Sorcerer's name is Yensid, which is Disney spelled backward.

walt disney was scared of mice

everything wasn't ready when disneyland opened so when people leaned on wadlls they would get paint on them, people with high heels were sinking into the road thing on main street, etc.

to cover up the dirt patches in disneyland, walt disney had the gardeners plants weeds and gave them long horticultral names

in 1967 when pirates of the caribbian opened they used REAL skeleton bones as props because fake ones didn't look real

can't think of anymore

 

[The Dark Dancer]

Walt Disney was afraid of mice.

Some of the other names that were thought of for the dwarfs in the Disney movie "Snow White" were Awful, Dirty, Shifty, Hotsy, and Jumpy.

There were more than 750 artists that worked on Walt Disney's "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs."

The woman who did the voice of Disney's Snow White was the daughter of Disney's casting director.


The photographic image of a topless woman can be spotted in the background of The Rescuers.

it's disney..but i couldnt think of anything else!
in the haunted mansion ride at wdw, the whole thing actually tells the story of the gracey's. the person in the portrait when you walk in, and the person hanging in the stretching room is master gracey.
in the library, when your ghost host says "they're all ghost stories of course!" they aren't. they are actually books on law, dictionaries, and surgery books. and when you walk out of the stretching room to get onto your doombuggy, there is a table with a dictionary opened to the letter 'd' for death.
the piano is an 1870's classic and is worth $20,000.
in the attic, the bride actually represents madame gracey. when you leave the attic, a former cm stated that when you go into the graveyard, youre actually "jumping" from the roof like the bride did. and the caretaker (the only living person in the ride) is shaking and is scared of you. youve become a ghost and that is why you can join the grim grinning ghosts' party.
outside when you exit the ride, underneath the green canopy, look down and you will see the famous "wedding ring" of madame gracey. its actually a left over peice of metal from a former gate, but its still funner to think its a ring.
sorry that theyre all hm related
