Disney World’s Boo Bash and Disneyland’s Oogie Boogie Bash have kicked off, and we’ve been admiring the decorations, trying some Halloween treats, and drinking pumpkin-flavored coffee! If you aren’t visiting the parks this Halloween season, the Muppets are taking over the Haunted Mansion in a new Disney+ special, Muppets Haunted Mansion! Recently, we learned more about the celebrity cameos for the new special!
Over on Twitter, the Muppets announced the singing busts for their version of the Haunted Mansion with Skai Jackson, Pat Sajak, Geoff Keighly, Justina Machado, and Craig Robinson serving as the musical statues!
