Plot:

Del Toro believes this is the scariest TV production ever made, the story follows Sally (Madison), a young girl who moves to Rhode Island to live with her father (Pearce) and his new girlfriend (Holmes) in the 19th-century mansion they are restoring. While exploring the house, Sally starts to hear voices coming from creatures in the basement whose hidden agenda is to claim her as one of their own. Akin to del Toro’s PAN’S LABYRINTH, DON’T BE AFRAID OF THE DARK focuses on a young girl’s struggle against menacing and terrifying forces.

Comic-Con 2010 Day 2: Guillermo del Toro Talks About His Haunted Mansion Film and Official Logo

Del Toro had this to say during the conference:

I went to Disneyland the first time when I was three years old, and I was a lump of fat about this big. And I fortunately was there the year the mansion opened, and I’ve been there every year at least once for the rest of my life. It’s one of those places that I go to… Literally, that’s how freaky I am, unfortunately.

This is a place where I go to when I need to think, when I need to relax and unwind. When we were going through the worst process of Mimic in 1997, we were doing post in Los Angeles and I would go on the weekend and ride it over and over again, and to me, my man cave, my little house that I have… I have my own Haunted Mansion room with the gargoyles, the wallpaper, original art by Marc Davis, and so on and so forth. And I always felt that the Haunted Mansion told such stories without having to be done solely as a horror film. I thought that the clash or the poignancy of Claude Coates, Rolly, and Marc Davis created a unique flavor for the Mansion.

I would love to say we are doing the movie, it’s live-action. It is going to be in 3D. And we’re making the Haunted Mansion the most haunted place on Earth. And we are doing it by being true to the spirit and the art and the aesthetic of the original Imagineers that created the mansion.

We are not returning Eddie Murphy’s calls, and we are not making it a comedy. We are making it into an e-ticket ride. We are going to make it scary and fun at the same time. But the scary will be scary. And to me, the mansion has to become the haunted house movie that a generation remembers and loves after being created by us. We are doing this by reintroducing… the mythology in the mansion will be done, and this is really for the hardcore fans, it is going to be created around the character we are reintroducing into the tale. And it is my biggest hope that we can reintroduce it right, and that is the Hatbox Ghost.

I always loved his image. I think he is one of the scariest creations, but he is also incredibly whimsical. What I decided was, in the talks with Disney, that this would be the pivotal character to reintroduce the mythology. And I said, please, this is going to be scary. If you take the children, they will scream. But we hope that happens, and it’s a litmus test of character. This, to me, is a dream come true, and I hope to steal as many props as possible.

Disney is Making Moves

Yo, cuzzo. Disney is definitely making moves right now. Last month, they bought Marvel for 4 billion and now they've just been announcing all these new projects.


They have just announced that Pirates of the Caribbean 4 will be released in 2011. Johnny Depp, recently, made an appearance at Disney's D23 Convention as Jack Sparrow and premiered the official title and logo for Pirates of the Caribbean: On Strangers Tides.

Disney has also confirmed that The Beatles' Yellow Submarine will be remade by Robert Zemekis in 3D. I'm a fan of the original Yellow Submarine so I'm all for this remake. It will be shot in 3D using motion capture technology and the film will include 16 licensed Beatles songs.

And finally Disney has announced that they are developing a new Muppets movie called the Cheapest Muppet Movie Ever Made. It is being written by Jason Segal who wrote and starred in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. I am soooo excited for this! Nostalgia is in the air. I'm definitely going to see this when it comes out. Its about time they made a comeback.


It was also announced at D23 that Guillermo Del Toro is launching a animation label that will release Disney scary movies called Disney Double Dare You.This sounds pretty cool. Their first movie will be called Trollhunters. Stay up for updates on that and more buzz.
