DawnM Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 We need to talk about this. My jaw dropped! I am envisioning all of it and just floored. https://mousetrapnews.com/guests-sneak-dead-taxidermied-family-member-into-disney/#:~:text=The family took their taxidermied,transferring him to the Doombuggy. 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSera Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 (edited) After initially being horrified, I now see the article is satire. I see the next article down being about Space Mountain keeping the lights on permanently, which sounded even more absurd than the dead relative 😂 , and found a fact checker article saying the space mountain story was false and came from a satire website, mouse trap news. https://mousetrapnews.com/about/ “Mouse Trap News is the world’s best satire site. We write fake stories about Disney Parks stuff. From Disney Park announcements to Disney Hotel and resort news to made-up Disney partnerships, you can be assured that anything you read here is not true, real, or accurate, but it is fun.” This could be a fun one to share with high school students as a way to talk about sourcing 😌 Edited July 7, 2023 by KSera 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faith-manor Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Okay, I know this is an Onion type satire, but honestly, I hate to say it but I have known people crazy enough to try something just about this nuts. I think in general, D.W. workers see an awful lot of insane stuff there. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsheresomewhere Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 The Haunted Mansion has always had a problem with people leaving their dead on the ride. Years ago, they used to have a deep clean scheduled for this. And apparently, the seven seas lagoon is another favorite place for people to sprinkle their loved ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pippen Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I never got past the taxadermied relative part. That can't be legal anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catz Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 In case this isn't clear to anyone, this is a satire news site https://mousetrapnews.com/about/ Quote Mouse Trap News is the world’s best satire site. We write fake stories about Disney Parks stuff. From Disney Park announcements to Disney Hotel and resort news to made-up Disney partnerships, you can be assured that anything you read here is not true, real, or accurate, but it is fun. So technically our slogan The Moused Trusted Name in Disney News isn’t true, but we thought it was creative and funny, so we are running with it. Mouse Trap News was created on a whim to have some fun and write stories about Disney we wish were true. Some Disney sites write deceptive stories for clicks. We write 100% made-up stories for your enjoyment. We also hope that Disney sees how much people like some of our stories and decide to actually make one of our stories a reality!

Yes they have had a lot of issues at HM with cremated remains. Then they suck it all up into a vacuum and it goes to the waste bin. Bye Bye Grandpa!

Annie Elle Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I don’t think that human taxidermy is legal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KungFuPanda Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Cremation jewelry exists. They could have “taken grandpa to Disney” without the taxidermy. I’m amazed this plan made it out of the idea phase. Not one family member pumped the brakes on this?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farrar Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 I love the other two fake stories. Giving birth on the Rockin' Rollercoaster and the fart that shut down The Land. LMAO. What's so weird is that people really do sneak their dead relatives into WDW all the bleeping time, so for a half a minute, it had me going.

It is like amplifying the issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
