Sleeping Beauty Walkthrough, Please Come Back!

Fantasmic17 · 09-01-2005, 12:32 PM

Who else thinks that they should put back the Sleeping Beauty walkthrough back into Sleeping Beauty Castle? When I went to Disneyland for the first time when I was five I wet through the walkthrough a bizzillion times and I though it was the coolest thing. When I went last Christmas with my family it was gone and I was very dissapointed.

Has anybody heard any rumors about it's return or if it will never come back? Please report if you hear anything.

I've always wanted to go in there...I've NEVER gone in there

. I could never find the entrance to it

...is it closed right now??where is the entrance anyways??

Fantasmic17 · 09-01-2005, 12:39 PM

The entrance is in the little passage that leads from the Fantasyland courtyard to the Plaza Gardens and it is/was quite well hidden.

Goes to show you how ignorant I was. I didn't even know you could enter the castle!

Liserbell · 09-01-2005, 12:41 PM

The enterance is/was to your right as you walked under the portcullis. It was an unadorned door with an awning very near the statue of Aroura and Phillip dancing, as I remember.
The last time I was there they had closed it due to vandels. I always loved it. I do hope they bring in back

It might not have been overly obvious at times but I don't think it was really hidden at all.

When I went last Christmas it was very hard to find where it was.

idk where it was i always wanted to go but always forgot, i think we have the video on VF but we have to wait for the gallery to open again (no rush)

kates4u · 09-01-2005, 12:50 PM

I loved going in the castle! It was really cool in there. I wonder if they still have all that up in there. I would love to have a Sleeping Beauty doll from in there LOL

Liserbell · 09-01-2005, 01:20 PM

I always found it funny that the dancing Aroura and Phillip in the final scene were Barbie and Ken all dressed up. I'm not sure why.
The castle was very nice to walk through. As a child I found it enchanting, like a book come to life. As an adult I just thought it was pretty cool. I read a book that said Walt put it there because he thought the castle was wasted space and it should have an attraction. I agree with him. The could just install a video survalience system for vandles and whatever.

Well, kids, I hate to disappoint you but last Summer the final scene from the castle walk-through (where Aurora is being kissed by Prince Philip), was iinstalled in the window of the Emporium on Main Street! Since that scene has been removed, I would wager they have taken out all of the vignettes in the Sleeping Beauty Castle walk-through. I LOVED walking through that attraction and was so sad when they closed it. Cross your fingers they put it back the way it was so we can all enjoy it again.

The barbie and ken dolls were donated by Shirley Temple to Walt Disney. Read some facts about it here http://www.oitc.com/Disney/Disneylan...leDiorama.html

RankoAnime · 09-01-2005, 03:13 PM

OMG, I never knew about this! Boy, I'm really dense, aren't I? When did they close this attraction? Was it ever listed on the Disneyland map? I would have loved to see it if I had known about it. It was always my dream to be able to walk inside the castle! Little did I know that you actually could!

Fantasmic17 · 09-01-2005, 03:41 PM

I think they took it out after 9/11.

disneylover · 09-01-2005, 06:02 PM

^Yeah, I think they did too! I LOVED this walk through attraction. It was just neat to walk into the castle!
