RETRACTION: Disney has confirmed that dates previously published to the Disneyland website indicating a November 14 return for the Haunted Mansion Holiday in 2025 are INCORRECT. Instead, Disney confirmed that the Haunted Mansion Holiday is slated to return as expected for the first day of Halloween Time celebrations on August 22, 2025.
Fans of the spooky vibes of the Haunted Mansion will surely rejoice with the news that the “Holiday” version of the attraction will not be debuting until after Halloween this year. Instead, the Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay, which sees Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas wreck the halls for the season, is expected to return from November 14 through January 7, 2026.
The news comes from uncited information posted by Disney beat journalist and Blue Sky user Scott Gustin. Although sources are not often indicated through his social media postings, details shared are typically trustworthy and come seemingly straight from Disney directly. The full text contents of the post made this morning includes the following details:
Haunted Mansion Holiday will return to Disneyland Park Nov. 14 through Jan. 7, 2026. The November opening date is later than normal – but it means we get traditional Haunted Mansion for Halloween this year.
NEW: Haunted Mansion Holiday will return to Disneyland Park Nov. 14 through Jan. 7, 2026. The November opening date is later than normal – but it means we get traditional Haunted Mansion for Halloween this year. 👏
