Orlando, Florida
-Walt Disney World- Florida's most popular attraction has had several haunted tales told over the years. No, I'm not referring to the Haunted Mansion. I would like to begin with George, who was a welder working to help construct the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. The ride opened December of 1973, but what was unknown to many was that there had been a death. His death is still a mystery because there was actually two reports of how George actually died. The first, was that a beam fell and crushed him, but the second account happened during the construction of the famed burning city scene. George had to climb up high to assemble different parts of the ride where he supposedly slipped and fell to his death. Many of the employee's have had experiences with George and in fact at the beginning of the day and at the end they must come on the PA system to say good morning and good night to George. If they don't, George has been known to shut the ride down.
Epcot part of Walt Disney World has one of the most recognizable structures at the Resort but many don't know that this sphere contains visitors that never leave. This sphere known as Spaceship Earth actually has two ghosts that have been seen. The ghosts are those of a small girl and boy. The girl has long blonde hair, she has been seen most often riding in the cars. But she has also been seen wandering in front of Spaceship Earth with a young boy. The boy is often seen running in front of the girl as she walks along then just disappears into thin air.
At the exciting Tower of Terror ride, known for its jaw dropping fall has an apparition which has been seen after all visitors have left. Workers report seeing this apparition after the ride closes wandering around usually in the wrong direction of normal visitor traffic. But don't bother trying to communicate, because when you speak it disappears.
Disney's final spirit is an apparition that is seen aimlessly wandering the streets in front of the castle. I can imagine with close to 48 million people visiting Disney World every year that there is bound to be someone with a love so strong for their happiest childhood memories that even in death, there is still a connection.
