Disney's Haunted Mansion question

[goheels681]

When you get inside DisneyWorld's Haunted mansion, and you're all in the room right the talking paintings, they ask you if the roof it moving up, or if you're moving down. Does anyone know which one it is? I say that the ceiling is moving up.

Do you mean that the part you're standing on doesn't move, or that nothing moves?

i think he meant that your not moving, the ceiling rises.

I don't know, or even remember that room, but that was my favorite ride when I went to Disney World :D

So, does the floor descend or does the ceiling rise in the Haunted Mansion's Portrait Chamber (aka the stretching room)? Well...both--it depends on the location. As with Pirates of the Caribbean, the space-strapped Disneyland in California needed to transport guests to a large building beyond the park's berm. The Chamber is actually an elevator that takes guests down to an underground passageway, which leads to the show building. Disneyland Paris' Phantom Manor uses the same concept. In the Florida and Tokyo versions however, space is less of an issue, so the ride building is directly behind the facade. In those stretching rooms, the ceiling rises, and guests remain on the same level.
