See first-look photos of Disney's Haunted Mansion bar that expands ride's story and revives Donald Duck chair

The crypt doors have creaked open on Disney's newest Haunted Mansion attraction: the world's first-ever bar inspired by the classic ride.

EW has an exclusive first look at the upcoming Haunted Mansion Parlor aboard the Disney Treasure cruise ship, which will become the company's first lounge experience based on the beloved attraction when it sets sail alongside the vacation vessel in December 2024.

Billed as the "next chapter" of Haunted Mansion lore, the bar tells the story of a captain who entered the ghostly realm following a tragic dinner with his fiancée, and pulls aesthetic theming directly from Walt Disney's original 1969 Disneyland version of the ride, including purple wallpaper, a mantel clock, a distinct chair — which fans affectionately refer to as the Donald Duck chair — tucked into the corner, and, of course, hitchhiking ghosts behind the bar. While visitors experience the seafaring character's lair, they'll hear a custom musical arrangement by Shruti Kumar that draws inspiration from the ride's iconic theme.

Disney promises that the parlor will star "legendary characters from Haunted Mansion attractions at Disney Parks around the world, as well as new seafaring arrivals" that will come out to socialize (and expose their skeletons amid flashes of lightning) within the portrait gallery inside a first-class drawing room that recalls classic cruise liners of the golden age.

Of course, the Haunted Mansion Parlor will also feature themed cocktails. A new twist on a classic margarita features a swirl of flavored smoke peppering the liquid, the purple Ghoulish Delight mixes ube-flavored fudge, oat milk, and tapioca pearls in a drink topped off with a gummy eyeball, and the non-alcoholic Sympathetic Libations harmonizes blood orange and sour cherry flavors.

Finally, the Haunted Mansion Parlor boasts new, exclusive merchandise, from miniatures of the venue's distinctive music box and mantle clock to a mug engraved with spooky sea life and a small mirror that flashes images of hitchhiking ghosts.

Disney's Haunted Mansion Parlor comes amid a monumental year in the Haunted Mansion universe, including the release of director Justin Simien's big-budget movie adaptation of the classic attraction as well as Disneyland's announcement that it will expand the California version of the ride's queue with new structures, theming, and a retail location set to open in 2024.
