The Disneyland Haunted Mansion ride is slated to close for a refurbishment. We track all Disneyland ride closures.

In early May 2026, reports indicated the Haunted Mansion at Magic Kingdom was temporarily closed with no official reopening date given. Some outlets noted the closure began around May 2 and persisted into May 3, 2026, without a stated reason. [WDW News Today, reporting May 2–3, 2026][2]

Historically, the Haunted Mansion has undergone refurbishments or seasonal overlays (e.g., Hatbox Ghost installation, exterior refurbishments) that lead to temporary closures, sometimes without public timelines. For example, past refurbishment notices in 2023–2024 mention brief, planned closures around August or other dates. [Disney Food Blog, Aug 2023; WDW News Today coverage 2023][1][5]

Separate notes: closures have differed between Disney World in Florida and Disneyland in California, with Disneyland often closing for longer refurbishments such as seasonal overlays or major renovations. If you’re planning a visit, it’s wise to check the My Disney Experience app or official Disney announcements close to your date for the latest status.

Illustration (example scenario)
- If the ride remains closed, you might instead experience nearby attractions or plan a flexible itinerary (e.g., allocate extra time for standby at other attractions or use Genie+ where available). This is a practical workaround when live closures occur.
Would you like me to monitor for updates and compile a concise daily brief with any reopening dates as soon as they’re announced? I can also pull the latest official Disney statements if you share your travel window.[2]
