Hong Kong Disneyland opened with versions of many classic Disney rides, but was notably missing a version of the Haunted Mansion. A few years later they got a unique adaptation of this ride created to respect Chinese culture, Mystic Manor.
This told an original story of a monkey in an enchanted mansion, in a modern take on a classic Disney attraction. Here are 10 fun facts about one of Disney's best rides of all time.

3. Club
This ride features props previously featured in the Adventurers Club from Pleasure Island in Walt Disney World.
