Liberty Square

Liberty Square is Disney’s version of colonial America.

This old fashion square is a distinct replica of the colonial era.

Replicas of both the Liberty Bell and Liberty Tree can be
seen here.

One of the most popular attractions in the Magic Kingdom, the Haunted Mansion, is located in this land.

Presiding over the square is the Hall of Presidents, an American History show featuring an audio-animatronic figure of every President of the United States.

Liberty Square has a long waterfront on the Rivers of America and the Liberty Belle steam paddleboat departs from a landing here. The land affords excellent views of the river and Tom Sawyer Island in adjacent Frontierland.

Not only is this landmark historical, it’s functional. There are many shops and stores to meander about. Many  people love it so much they must come back for more every year!

Liberty square houses many different attractions such as, Rivers of America, Haunted Mansion, and the Hall of the Presidents.

As you walk through the streets and admire the brick covered buildings you begin to realize how authentic this place really is. Walt Disney was a true American man and his dream to recreate history is evident thru-out this historic land. Liberty Square is the best and only place in Disney to absorb true American history.

The days of Paul revere may be long gone but you can still witness what it was like when the past was the present.

Liberty Square  bridges to the park’s central hub, as well as Adventureland. Forming its western border is the Rivers of America, on which the Liberty Belle River Boat travels.

In 2007, the land went under a major refurbishment enhancing and updating all the attractions. Liberty Square is extremely accurate and authentic to to the time period, from major architectural and engineering homages to the small antiques and artifacts peppered throughout the many attractions and dining locations.

The Haunted Mansion

The Haunted Mansion is a spooky tour of an ominous haunted house in Liberty Square Magic Kingdom theme park, where a supernatural Ghost Host introduces you to his closest 999 dearly-departed friends.

Don’t worry—too much. While Haunted Mansion contains some mildly frightening subject matter, there is no gore, the ghostly residents are friendly and the experience is appropriate for all ages.

Enter the mysteriously well-maintained exterior of an 18th-century mansion and find yourself in an ornate estate where anything can happen—and often does. Walking past the entrance foyer and into the ghostly portrait chamber, the air cools and the sense of dread begins to grow. Suddenly, you realize that you are in a room with no windows and no doors!

Moving along, you board a “Doom Buggy” and begin your supernatural journey. Your Ghost Host takes you through several dusty rooms, where you can see eerie signs of ethereal awakening. Soon, you encounter the mansion’s resident medium, Madame Leota, who invokes the mansion’s ghost and ghouls to show themselves.

What follows has to be seen to not be believed, but suffice to say that you’ve never before seen the dead so lively. The conclusion is definitely more merry than scary, but the sight of wraiths and skeletons—even of the kindest constitution—is something you’re sure to remember as long as you live.

And maybe a bit longer.

At the end of your tour, to help you remember your visit to the mansion, a team of 3 cheery hitchhiking ghosts volunteer to follow you home. It’s no use trying to dissuade them; they’re deadly serious about their duty.

The Haunted Mansion is the imposing colonial manor darkening the eastern banks of the Rivers of America in the northwest corner of Liberty Square.
