[0:00]Did you know the way Disney Imagineers made ghosts look real, it's so simple. Do it yourself for less than a dollar. With just a phone, a window, and some black construction paper. Let me help you with that. And while Disney's been using this trick for 70 years, it's been blowing the mind of the public for centuries. And it doesn't need fancy equipment, because if you record with your phone towards the window at an angle and mirror the angle with the object you want to ghostify with dark construction paper backdrop behind it. And then, voila! It looks like you have a ghost squirrel sitting on your hand. And so, for The Haunted Mansion, your eyes take the place of the phone and a giant glass wall reflects ghostly figures dancing below the tracks. Turning the dining room into a lively party, which just goes to show, it's not actually supernatural. It's just super cool science.
