In honor of the 25th anniversary of DoomBuggies.com on Oct. 31, 2022, DoomBuggies founder Jeff Baham has teamed up with the Sibling Library Podcast to create a brand-new telling of Washington Irving's "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." As Haunted Mansion fans know, "Sleepy Hollow" was a tale which Walt Disney made into a classic animated film, and was then considered by Imagineer Ken Anderson as a potential setting for one of the showstopping scenes inside of Disneyland's proposed haunted house attraction, long before plans for the Haunted Mansion were finalized. So grab a blanket and start a crackling fire, pour yourself a cup of warm cider, and enjoy listening to our telling of Irving's classic horror story.

In this episode I interview Disney Legend and Imagineer Bob Gurr about his incredible career working for Walt Disney. We discuss Bob's early life as a young boy through his time at WED Enterprises working directly for Walt Disney on the construction of Disneyland. Bob is often quoted as saying..."If it moves on wheels at Disneyland, I probably designed it." That quote is quite accurate considering Bob's impressive resume as designer of such iconic attraction ride vehicles as: the Monorail, Matterhorn Bobsleds, Disneyland Fire Engine, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride cars, and the OmniMover ride vehicle system, which appears most notoriously in the 'Doom Buggies' Haunted Mansion ride vehicles.  Bob is not only a Disney Legend, his career is legendary but it did not end when Bob officially left Disney in 1981. In fact, Bob not only continued to work as Designer for many years after leaving Disney, he is still working today!  Be sure to check back for a Part 2 of this podcast interview in which Bob and I will further explore his time at Disney and beyond.  You can learn more about Bob Gurr and his incredible life by visiting:  BobGurr.com  Bob also conducts Bus Tours in Southern California of historic and iconic locations that are significant to Walt Disney history.

In this episode of the DoomBuggies Spook Show, we look at some opportunities that are coming quickly as the Haunted Mansion's 50th anniversary rapidly approaches on August 9, 2019. DoomBuggies offers a special event on August 9, while Disneyland offers its own overnight spooky celebration celebrating the anniversary with two parties and the release of a plethora of new art and collectibles. Then, Jeff talks about the winners of the D23 Expo Design Challenge and reviews "Happy Haunts Materialize: Fifty Spirited Years of the Haunted Mansion" at the Disney Gallery at Disneyland. Finally, we take a look at two potential moments of inspiration behind the Haunted Mansion - one being an article from a Kansas City newspaper from 1921, and one being an episode from a radio show from 1949. Both provide an interesting context to the world into which the Haunted Mansion emerged in 1969.

Welcome to episode number four of the DoomBuggies Spook Show, a podcast "dead-icated" to fans of Disney's Haunted Mansion attractions, and other spooky things. In this episode, we discuss a listener's "Top Ten Questions About the Haunted Mansion," since they echo many questions regularly asked about this seminal haunted attraction. What exactly is inside of that big Haunted Mansion building facade? Will Guillermo de Toro ever come through with his proposed movie treatment of the Haunted Mansion? Does Tim Burton support the Haunted Mansion Holiday overlay? Get the DoomBuggies perspective on these and many other topics. In Spook Show news, Rolly Crump will be signing Marvel's "Seekers of the Weird" comics at Beach Ball Comics in Anaheim; the Disney Parks Blog unveils new Haunted Mansion artwork for upcoming merchandise, and a DIY special effect. Plus, a listener tells a ghost story, buying and selling Haunted Mansion merchandise opportunities - and more!
