Touching the apple causes the disembodied voice of the Queen to cackle menacingly. A metal gold-colored apple is within reach of guests standing in the queue. Overlooking the entrance is a high window whose curtains are parted every few minutes by the Queen. Guests enter the ride building through The Evil Queen's castle. The current version, opened in 1983, is similar to the original version, but is meant to be less scary overall. The vehicles then entered a pitch-black room briefly before exiting to the unload area. As ride vehicles crashed through a set of doors hidden in the cliffside, the Witch's scream could be heard, though she was not actually shown falling to her death. Guests then turned to a cliff, where the Witch was seen above them attempting to pry a huge boulder from the outcrop onto the riders. The ride vehicles then returned to the Dwarfs' cottage, where the door suddenly swung open, revealing the Witch, who would offer the guests the apple for a final time. This scene is one of the few that would remain mostly unchanged in the 1983 overhaul. Riders then exited the castle and continued through the dark forest, where the trees have faces and arms while the logs look like crocodiles. Exiting the dungeon, the Witch appeared from behind a pillar and offered the guests the apple again. Guests then moved towards the cauldron, where the Witch was obscured by shadows until she turned suddenly towards the cauldron, offering the guests the poisoned apple. The vehicles turned to face a huge archway, through which the Witch's shadow moved across the wall. The vehicles went through the dungeons, where skeletons warned guests to turn back. The gate to the cottage slammed shut, forcing guests to go further into the castle. The vehicles turned towards the castle, where one of the gateways led to the cottage and the other led further into the castle. A two-way sign was then seen, pointing to the Dwarfs' cottage in one direction and the Witch's castle in the other direction. The ride vehicles then entered the forest, where various animals were seen watching the riders. As guests exited the mine, Dopey was seen for a second time, pointing at a sign reading "beware of the Witch". The ride began in the diamond mine, where the Dwarfs were seen digging. The original Disneyland version is noted for not featuring Snow White at all (with the intention being that the riders were Snow White), while the Dwarfs only appear in one scene (aside from Dopey, who appears twice). The Magic Kingdom version closed for good on to make way for Princess Fairytale Hall. The redesigned ride took some cues from the Disneyland Paris version, including increasing the capacity of each ride vehicle from four to six passengers. Around Christmas of 1994, a less-frightening version of the ride took its place and appearances by Snow White were also added. The Magic Kingdom's original version of this ride also put the guests in the role of the story's main character (Snow White). On Decemthe film's 83rd Anniversary, it was announced that the attraction would be renamed Snow White's Enchanted Wish with an updated cottage and mine sequence also being showcased. The current attraction closed on January 6, 2020.
WITCH MAGIC MIRROR SNOW WHITE INSTALL
On November 26, 2019, it was announced that the Disneyland attraction would undergo a 2020 overhaul to install a new happy ending sequence. Guests who reach out to steal the apple now find their hands passing through it. When Fantasyland was reopened in 1983, they solved the problem of the ever-missing poisoned apple by replacing it with an image of an apple projected by means of a parabolic mirror. When the Witch offered guests the poisoned apple in one scene, guests frequently tried (and sometimes managed) to steal the apple and bring it home as a souvenir. The present outdoor façade was made to resemble The Evil Queen's castle from the movie. Today, Snow White appears once in the attraction. This attraction and the other dark rides were modified to include the main characters of the films they represented. Some footage of the original version would be part of the 1962 film 40 Pounds of Trouble, which featured a lengthy sequence set inside Disneyland.ĭuring 1983, all of the Fantasyland dark rides were expanded and redesigned as part of a large overhaul of Fantasyland. Few people understood this concept and some wondered why Snow White herself was not featured in the ride. Imagineers had designed the ride so that guests felt like they were the main character of the story in this case, the guests were Snow White.

Snow White's Scary Adventures opened on Disneyland's opening day as Snow White and Her Adventures.
