Haunted Mansion Facts 2: Seance Room

Did you know...
 
 
In the Seance Room of the Haunted Mansion (with the crystal ball containing the floating head of Madam Leota) there is a little spellbook sitting in the view of the guests passing by.
On the book's open page...
 
 
The picture is small, but it says,
"A Spell to Bring to Your Eyes And Ears One Who is Bound In Limbo: KREE KRUH VERGO GEBBA KALTO KREE!"
 
Those Disney fans who remember this 1968 Walt Disney comedy...
 
 ...starring Peter Ustinov, and Dean Jones...
 
...will remember that this is the spell that Steve Walker, the new track coach at Godolphin college, unknowingly uses to summon the spirited spirit of Capt. Blackbeard.
 
Interesting, huh?

How funny! I didn't know that they used those words on the book! I love all the details that Disney throws in! I mean, they could have used filler text that meant absolutely no sense because NO-ONE can get that close to read it, but they put fun things like that! GO GODOLPHIN! I LOVE Blackbeard's Ghost! Peter Ustinov is the BEST!

That is why Disney is awesome! (Well, one of the reasons...) I agree! Go Godolphin!
