WDW HM vs. DL HM

What are the differences between WDW and DL HM?
Anything I should look for at WDW? Is the ride longer or shorter....

Don't tell me... there's a "Attractions" forum somewhere on this site? Wasn't sure if this post should be in WDW Theme parks forum.

Re: WDW HM vs. DL HM

The differences are small, but I found the rides to be very similar. For me, the biggest difference was how things are set up at the beginning. WDW has a library that has the statuary that watches you.

Re: WDW HM vs. DL HM

From what I've read on Mice Age, the Haunted Mansion in DL is being updated. New story elements and new effects are being added. The ride length should not change, but the two will have less in common in the near future.

Re: WDW HM vs. DL HM

The real only difference are a few details, like scene setup and wallpaper colors. The only real-real differences are the facades of the two buildings and Disneyland's Haunted Mansion uses real elevators and Disney World's uses fake elevators. But Disneyland's is getting a major update so it will soon be some what different from WDW's, but their both still awesome!
