Description
Step inside one of Disney’s most fascinating unbuilt attractions. More Cute Stories Vol. 3: Museum of the Weird collects Disney Legend Rolly Crump’s own tales from Walt Disney Imagineering, centered on his beloved, never-built Museum of the Weird — a walkthrough attraction of bizarre exhibits: coffin clocks, melting candles, a living suit of armor, floating objects, eerie portraits with moving eyes.
Crump — the animator and Imagineer behind the Enchanted Tiki Room, it’s a small world, and early Haunted Mansion designs — walks readers through each planned chamber and explains the creative thinking behind every detail. He also shares why the project never left the drawing board after Walt Disney’s death in 1966, and how its concepts influenced the Haunted Mansion.
A must-read for Disney history fans, theme park design students, and anyone curious about the strange, brilliant ideas that almost came to life. Written in Crump’s warm, conversational voice.
