One thing I love about the attraction is there is no concrete storyline. Do you think the film will change your thoughts on the actual attraction?

That being said I am excited about the Del Toro version. He is a huge fan of the attraction and even has an entire room in his house dedicated to it. He has also said that the Hatbox Ghost will most likely be the main villain for the movie. This gives me even higher hopes that they make actually put him into the attraction now. It gives them a good enough reason if the film goes over as well as PotC did. Also, a little side note. I am a huge movie geek and have always wondered if anyone else thought that the Hatbox Ghost and Lon Chaney's character from the lost silent film London After Midnight look eerily similar. You be the judge. --

I like Jennifer Tilly as Madame Leota (I admit I have a bit of a crush on her... :3 ), and some of the scenes are spectacularly creepy. That being said, I can't wait to see this new version. But wasn't Guillermo del Toro fired from this project, or am I thinking of something else? Anyways, I LOVE Del Toro's Hellboy movies. --
