Cinderella Castle Mystery Tour (Tokyo Disneyland)Part 2 of 2

This is Part 2 of a walk-through guided tour attraction from Tokyo Disneyland. Unfortunately this attraction closed in April 2006. No reason was given. The tour is in Japanese but I can tell you this much: The tour begins in a portrait gallery where the guide shows us portraits of the Disney Heroes. But the Magic Mirror interrupts her and corrects her description. There is a lightning flash and the portraits change to those of the Disney Villains. The Mirror then explains that the new portraits are, in fact, the real Disney Heroes and that they have been misunderstood for years. A secret door creaks open revealing a dark and winding staircase, which leads down to the dungeons. The Mirror invites us to explore and discover the truth of things for ourselves. The rest of the attraction seems to be, for the most part, a tour of the Villain's lairs including some very creepy un-Disney moments. The dragon in this attraction inspired the more elaborate dragon built for the castle in Paris. And this was the only Disney attraction ever to feature characters from the Black Cauldron. The Horned King animatronic is very impressive.
