Send us Fan MailIt’s the Halloween special! Chris goes through the most famous ghost stories at Walt Disney World — the construction worker haunting Pirates of the Caribbean that cast members say good morning to every single day, the bellhop at Tower of Terror’s Platform D who causes so many ride malfunctions that nobody cleans D alone at night, the little boy on the Doom Buggy at Haunted Mansion, the dolls on It’s a Small World that move when the ride is off, and the bride at the Grand Floridian who fell over the railing and is still waiting. Then Kelli takes us through the complete history of Halloween at Disney World — from “Halloween Weekend” in 1972 where the big draw was free Haunted Mansion admission, all the way to today’s $229 tickets and sold-out parties.In this episode:Columbia Harbor House getting a major menu upgrade starting October 28: beer-battered fish and chips, hand-breaded fried shrimp, a new plant-based crab cake sandwich, and a Boston cream pieThe Music of Epcot is now streamable on Apple Music and Spotify — 23 songs from classic EPCOT to modern dayVictoria & Albert’s, Citrico’s, and Toledo at Coronado Springs all received entries in this year’s Michelin guidebook — the first time all of Florida was included.

Send us Fan MailThe Tower of Terror almost featured an award show hosted by Eddie Murphy and Elvira, Mistress of the Night — with Godzilla as the star. Chris goes deep on the full origin story of Hollywood Studios’ most iconic ride: from the original Six Flags drop tower that inspired it, to the Young Frankenstein castle that almost got built instead, to why Rod Serling’s widow personally helped cast the voice actor who replaced him. Plus Kelli breaks down everything you need to know about Coven Academy, the new Disney+ series that hit #1 in one day and has 100% on Rotten Tomatoes — including why it moved from Disney Channel to Freeform, and why the dark magic is intentionally written as an addiction metaphor.In this episode:Fort Wilderness holiday sleigh rides are now bookable — includes s’mores and a movie at the endDisney Believe inaugural cruise sets sail December 18, 2027, featuring an Encanto stage showMobile ordering coming soon to Nomad Lounge at Animal KingdomDisney Plus will broadcast this year’s Super BowlJoe Rohde confirms the Expedition Everest Yeti will be fully replaced, not repaired — “if they could fix the Yeti, they would have fixed the Yeti”Gertie the Dinosaur Christmas Loungefly purse is here and it is extremely cuteHoliday overlays coming November 25–January 6: Cosmic Rewind (Andy Williams, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, The Waitresses), Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster (The Muppets’ Electric Mayhem with Kermit and Fozzie singing Holiday Road and Christmas Baby Please Come Home, plus Cyndi Lauper and the Electric Mayhem on Silver Bells), and Alien Swirling Saucers (Toyland, Deck the Halls, Joy to the Swirl)Coven Academy is now #1 on Disney+, has 100% on Rotten Tomatoes, and is completely original — not based on any book or IP. Creator Tim Federle pitched it as “Wednesday with witches.” The dark magic is coded as an addiction metaphor, which is why it moved from Disney Channel to Freeform. Episodes are 13-19 minutes each, all 21 dropped at once. Devon Sawa is playing two roles. Miss Graves being Briar’s mom was not in the original script — it happened because of on-set chemistry between Tiffani Thiessen and Malina WeissmanTower of Terror origin story: why Disney built it, the drop tower at Six Flags Magic Mountain that inspired it, the rejected Jules Verne volcano concept for Disneyland Paris, the Stephen King stories idea, the Vincent Price ghost tour concept, the Eddie Murphy/Elvira/Godzilla award show pitch, the Young Frankenstein castle with Mel Brooks that almost happened, the $140 million construction that opened July 22, 1994, the design deliberately chosen to blend with EPCOT’s Morocco Pavilion, how Otis Elevators helped build the drop system, the evolution from one to two to three drops to today’s random computer-selected sequence, how Rod Serling’s widow helped cast his voice replacement, the 1997 Steve Guttenberg/Kirsten Dunst Tower of Terror TV movie, and how the Tokyo DisneySea version follows a completely different storyline with no Twilight Zone connection⏱ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro & Download Shoutouts (Union City NJ, Mason OH, Bern Switzerland) 2:50 Main Street News: Fort Wilderness Holiday Sleigh Rides 3:32 Disney Believe Inaugural Cruise — Encanto Stage Show 4:27 Mobile Ordering Coming to Nomad Lounge 5:20 Disney Plus Broadcasting the Super Bowl 5:37 Joe Rohde: Expedition Everest Yeti Will Be Replaced 6:17 Gertie the Dinosaur Christmas Loungefly Purse 7:02 Holiday Overlays: Cosmic Rewind, Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster, Alien Swirling Saucers 9:30 Tomorrowland: Coven Academy — Everything You Need to Know 23:35 World Showcase: Tower of Terror — The Full Origin Story🔗 Listen on audio: Apple / Spotify / iHeart 📍 More from us: scfadp.com 📸 Instagram: @SCFADP#WaltDisneyWorld #DisneyPodcast #TowerOfTerror #HollywoodStudios #CovenAcademy #DisneyPlus #DisneyNewsListen to us on your favorite podcast platform or at these links:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/supercalifragilistic-awesome-disney-podcast/id1519529786IHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-supercalifragilistic-aweso-68324055/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7aEKXzO7tTCqZfnvJnzAPC SCFADP on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scfadp/SCFADP on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/SuperCaliFragilisticAwesomeDisneyPodcastAll music for this episode is available through a creative commons license.
