Disneyland Celebrates 20 Years of Haunted Mansion Holiday

July 12, 2021, 4:27 PM · Disneyland is sharing a first look at the design of its new gingerbread house centerpiece celebrating the 20th anniversary of Haunted Mansion Holiday.

Each year, Disney creates a new gingerbread house to sit atop the dining table in the Haunted Mansion's ballroom scene for ride's "The Nightmare Before Christmas" overlay. This year's gingerbread house will include callbacks to all 19 previous gingerbread centerpieces.
