Sadly a guest had a heart attack on Haunted Mansion Holiday at Disneyland last night. She was unresponsive when it was her turn to unload and declared DOA once she reached the hospital. Sending condolences to her family and loved ones 😢

I will never understand why people act like this in a Disney park

The back of the jacket which was a wrap gift given to the stunt crew of Spider Noir, the live action Spiderman Noir series starring Nicolas Cage! The series will be streaming on Amazon Prime in 2026. I met some of the stunt guys last night and it was really cool talking to them

Both Disneyland parks being blocked out for Magic Key reservations tomorrow is wild. Especially since they’ll probably open them up in the morning, but won’t let us change our starting parks. The false scarcity is so obvious. The reservation system is the opposite of magical.

The new Evil Queen tiki mug at Trader Sam’s at the Disneyland Hotel looks incredible!

If someone blocks you on social media it’s real weird to approach them at Disneyland (or anywhere) trying to ask why. Like tell me you don’t understand boundaries without telling me. 0/10 stars.

Mobile orders for the Evil Queen mug open at 6am (for some reason)! Who else is grabbing one?

Every tier of the Disneyland Magic Key should include free parking. With the lower-tier keys, if you’re paying for parking repeatedly, you end up spending more per month than you would with an Inspire Key, but you’re able to visit Disneyland fewer days

This is so cool! If you accidentally leave your headlights on at Disneyland security will leave this note on your car in case you need assistance if your battery dies!

Why do people feel comfortable yelling uncomfortable portions of their conversation into their phone when I’m nearby? I wish they didn’t 😐

Seeing my mom’s reactions to Galaxy’s Edge and Star Wars Rise of the Resistance at Disneyland today literally made me cry. My mom is 100% responsible for my love of Star Wars and getting to share that with her for the first time was such a full circle moment. I’ll never forget it
