A Muppet retheme is coming to the Haunted Mansion. Disney is doing this because they are planning to close Muppet Vision 3D this year, but still want to represent The Muppets in their parks.

The ride track will remain the same, however, all of the characters will be replaced with the Muppets. For example, Kermit the Frog will now provide the narration on the ride. Meanwhile, Madame Leota will be taken over by Miss Piggy.

Also, Janice will replace Constance in the role of the bride. Throughout the rest of the ride, many of the characters will be replaced with other Muppets. The three Hitchhiking Ghosts will be replaced with only two, Statler and Waldorf. Guests will even be treated to the song Marley and Marley during the Hitchhiking Ghost part of the ride from The Muppet Christmas Carol.

Meanwhile, the song Grim, Grinning, Ghosts will now be sung by various Muppets too. This decision and closure of the Haunted Mansion has many fans disappointed. The Haunted Mansion is one of the most popular Disney rides of all time and is a classic. While the ride layout isn’t changing, the theme is, and people are not happy about that.

However, others are excited that the Muppets will get their own ride, despite Muppet Vision 3D closing soon. The Haunted Mansion is expected to close at the end of summer to make way for the Muppet retheme.
