Mystery Solved! Guest Brags About Stealing Rare Stone From Disney Park

A month-long Disneyland Resort mystery has finally been solved. A Disney Park guest has allegedly admitted to stealing a decorative stone from Disney California Adventure Park. What started as minor structural damage quickly turned into an unusual case of theft—one that Disney Parks fans aren’t taking lightly.

Disney California Adventure Park Stone Goes Missing

Last month, Disney Fanatic reported that a chunk of a decorative wall piece had mysteriously disappeared from a pole at Disney California Adventure Park. In response, Disney cast members temporarily patched the area with black Gaffer tape until a more permanent fix could be applied.

Initially, many Disney Park guests speculated that a rogue scooter crash caused the damage. Multiple visitors had reported seeing scooters colliding with the poles around the time the stone went missing, leading to the theory that repeated impacts weakened the structure. However, new details suggest an entirely different cause.

In a shocking twist, an anonymous Reddit user claimed to know the person responsible for breaking off and stealing the stone. They even shared a screenshot of a conversation with the alleged culprit, who provided multiple photos of the stolen piece that appeared to match the damaged area in Disney California Adventure Park.

According to the Redditor, the missing stone now resides as a paperweight in the thief’s home.

Disney Parks fans weren’t amused. Many took to social media demanding that Disneyland Resort ban the guest responsible for vandalizing the park.

Fans React to the Theft

Disney Parks fans quickly expressed frustration over the situation, condemning the guest’s actions.

“IDK what to call it but here it is,” Reddit user u/cubic_zirconia_hands commented. “I’d call it vandalism and stolen.”

“I call it INSTABAN,” u/EmoNightSac added.

Despite the public outrage, it’s unclear whether Disneyland Resort has identified the culprit or taken any action. Disney has also not provided a timeline for when the damaged wall will receive a proper repair.

If you witness inappropriate or unsafe behavior at Disneyland Resort or Walt Disney World Resort, Disney advises reporting it to the nearest Disney cast member. Rather than intervening directly, it’s best to let trained professionals handle tense situations.
