Originally Posted By davewasbaloo As for the narration, it is very similar to the US versions. And the visual storyline, mixed with the orchestral score means that most people can enjoy it.
Originally Posted By trekkeruss The last time I rode, the soundtrack was only in French. Go to the grimghosts site; there is a translation of the narration.
Originally Posted By davewasbaloo It has been in French since the end of April 1992. I heard VP once. Except for the laugh, that's still his. I speak French thankfully, but like I say, the script is about 90% the same as the US script. The busts sing in English and the Mayor in the Ghost Town speaks English too!

Originally Posted By trekkeruss Not better, just different, IMO. The graveyard scene on the other versions is mostly replaced with western ghost town. To my eyes, it's quite a bit creepier than the other mansions.
Originally Posted By davewasbaloo I love them all, but I would give the following ratings: DL - best exterior DLP - best interior But I know some people don't like the ghost town. Personally I love it. At DL - POTC is my fav, but at DLP PM is my fav, with POTC running a close 2nd.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Unlikely, it may be, but it is not uncommon for the portrait in it's day.
Originally Posted By 0075EGG Why is it named Phantom Manor, and not The Haunted Mansion like other Disney theme parks?
Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Phantom is known in French, Spanish and Italian, as is Manor. Haunted Mansion is 100% English. It's to make it more culturally acceptable.
