It’s the Haunted Mansion’s anniversary today!!! The movie has me going back to my old Haunted Mansion brainrot😭😭. I wanted to explore making my own interpretation of the Hatbox Ghost. This isn’t definitive, I’ll probably tweak it in the future but I just love Hatty so much and I figured this would be nice to share for today.

Inktober Day 10- Fortune

I recently watched the new Haunted Mansion movie and I absolutely loved it! It got me over my artblock too lmao

Sometimes family is you, your dapper son, a grumpy tour guide/genius, a “priest” , a professor with a heart condition and a medium.

With 999 ghost friends who forced you to have a sleepover bonding you forever.

some Haunted Mansion designs oooo spooky oooo!!!!!!!

This exchange was adorable and I’m a sucker for oddball friendships.

I'll Crump with you, sweetie pie!

Sometimes he goes out into the park to get ice cream.

Propaganda under the cut

The Beating Heart Bride X The Hatbox Ghost (Heartbox) - Disney’s Haunted Mansion

These two don't have one canon personality (the HM franchise, the lore and its characters have the particularily to change in every adaptation) and in her case not one design (though I love her faceless bright eyed shadowy look, creepier and less human) and Disney tries to make us believe she never existed or is the Black Widow Bride, all I know is that back then the Beating Heart Bride aka Emily and the Hatbox Ghost were canonically groom and bride haunting the attic together and their gigs worked together. The potential of a romance between such creepy odd looking ghosts with the taller younger woman and the smaller older man always fascinated me and sounds much more interesting than the other adaptations that depict her with Mr Prettyface Ghost (Master Gracey)

James P. Sullivan and Mike Wazowski (MikeSulley) – Monsters Inc

No submitted propaganda

Catching up on the latest gossip with Madame Leota and giving the kitties from the graveyard a hug.

I see you’ve… “come out to socialize~”

DFHJSJS sorry to get to these so late 😭😭 but YESSS HEHEHEH

Man, I have an idea for a silly Hatbox Ghost animatic that's got me going feral since last year and I'm hoping to be able to get to it sometime THIS year djsjjs. Especially cuz it's gonna be the 55th anniversary for the Haunted Mansion this year, I think!

Theeeerre he is. The man, the myth, the villain we love to hate.

Recently did another Hatbox Ghost drawing. I really like how this one turned out.

There's a special video you can watch on YouTube called "Scratch Calls the Haunted Mansion"

It's kinda separate from the main show as it's about Scratch calling a bunch of the characters from the Haunted Mansion (based off the ride at Disneyland).

I do very much love specials like these that incorporate and crossover their different works, especially in this case since the Haunted Mansion is perfectly fitting for the subject that is The Ghost and Molly McGee.

Let The Show Begin!

Enjoy the once-in-a-lifetime experience today! Hopefully there will be no supercharged hatbox ghosts that come out of the 2024 Total Eclipse!

Dance with a madman, won’t you?
