Feature Fun Friday - The Haunted Mansion Storybook reading

Current Theme Song (aka what's playing on my ipod right now): Nevertheless (I'm in Love with You) by Frank Sinatra.







I stumbled on this little treasure quite by accident and I am so glad I did. Apparently this was a promotional item when the Haunted Mansion first opened and has become quite a fan favorite. From the back of the recording it reads:

"In 1969, this Disneylands Record Storyteller album was released to commemorate the opening of the Haunted Mansion. Intended as a simple promotional album, this recording has become a cherished childhood memory for many Disney guests. The Story and Song from The Haunted Mansion includes original scenes and effects that never made it into the final attraction as it follows two teenagers (voiced by Robbie Lester and a young Ron Howard) who take refuge inside the eerie mansion during a mysterious rainstorm."

Hope you enjoy! Have a great weekend, everyone!
