Guests can interact with this Mickey-themed assistant to request room service, set character wake-up calls, get weather updates, and even play Disney trivia.

To activate the soundscape, guests can simply say, “Hey Disney, play the Haunted Mansion soundscape,” and the room will be filled with eerie sounds from the classic attraction. The mix includes creaky doors, ghostly howls, and an ambient rendition of “Grim Grinning Ghosts,” recreating the atmosphere of one of Disney’s most iconic rides. It’s an ideal feature for those who want to extend their Disney experience beyond the parks, or for fans who just can’t get enough of the mansion’s spooky charm.

But this isn’t just a fun perk for resort stays. One of the best aspects of Hey Disney! is its availability for home use. Disney fans can bring this voice assistant technology into their own living rooms with any Amazon Echo device, meaning that you can enjoy the Haunted Mansion soundscape—and other features—no matter where you are. From trivia games to character voices, Hey Disney! lets fans stay connected to the magic long after their vacation ends.
