Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough to Open by December

by Susan Gunelius on July 18th, 2008

Just in time for the December holiday season.  That’s the schedule given by Disney today for the opening of the refurbished walkthrough attraction at Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle.  Some of the new enhancements include:

• New scenes
• Special effects
• New technology
• A special room providing a virtual experience of the walkthrough attraction for guests in wheelchairs or unable to climb stairs.

Each of the enhancements should make well-known scenes from the original Sleeping Beauty animated movie come to life with special attention given to the creation of the magic of the fairy godmothers and spells of Maleficent.

Should be great and naturally, is timed perfectly to coincide with the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney’s Sleeping Beauty movie next year.  A special platinum DVD re-release of Sleeping Beauty is scheduled for 2009.  What do you think?
