(Disneyland, 1957) An extremely rare original script for the "Haunted Mansion" written by Imagineer Ken Anderson. This script was created in September of 1957, nearly twelve years before the attraction would open. While the "Haunted Mansion" would change and evolve over the years into its current incarnation, this script offers a remarkable opportunity to see how the attraction would have looked during some of its earliest stages of development. This script includes the entire story of the attraction, as proposed by Anderson in 1957. This includes the dialogue from the never-realized "Lonesome Ghost", as well as cast member dialogue, and an opening narration by Walt Disney. The script further describes various gags and spooky elements which would have been seen in the Mansion, and describes the history of the "Blood Family" who own "Bloodmere", an original proposed name for the Mansion. This 27-page document comes in a protective folder which reads "The Haunted House by Ken Anderson - 2nd Revision Sept. 17, 1957" on the front label. The script measures 11.5"x9" and is in very good condition with some yellowing to the cover from age.
