The rumors swirling among Disneyland cast members is that the Haunted Mansion’s original pet cemetery might be disappearing. The cemetery is the final resting place of Stripey the skunk, Bully the bullfrog, Big Jake the dog, and Miss Kitty the cat.

Being that the cemetery is located on the north backstage side of the building, most guests don’t even know it exists. The Anaheim Disney team thinks the area is  “dead space,” so the rumor is that they are going to demolish the cemetery in order to make it a parking lot for guest ECV’s.

The area was originally built about 35 years ago, and a larger pet cemetery was added on-stage in front of the mansion in 1993.
