Tokyo Disneyland's 1986 Cinderella Castle Mystery Tour  

from themeparkart tumblr: Today’s Disney castles tend to feature some kind of place of interest within them, whether it be a lavish restaurant, unique shopping or art exhibits. However, for 20 years, Tokyo Disneyland’s Cinderella Castle featured an expansive, (and dark!) walkthrough beneath it. Set up as a guided tour of the castle that is taken over by the forces of evil, guests traversed past Disney villains, dark dungeons, evil brutes and malicious mirrors, concluding with a showdown with the Horned King from The Black Cauldron. In Disney fashion, the villains are defeated and the mantra of “Good Conquers Evil” is declared. Upon its closure in 2006, the attraction was converted to Cinderella’s Fairy Tale Hall.









Here is something interesting 

Disney historians Jim Hill and Drew Taylor  talk about an article in Walt Disney Production's inhouse magazine Imagine from April 1981 about a Black Cauldron ride being planned for Disneyland.

The ride was going to be like Epcot's Horizons attraction (before they were working on Horizons)  

the idea for a Black Cauldron ride got shelved.

Edit: a fellow tumblr user told me that some concept art of the shelved Black Cauldron ride for Disneyland was seen at the D23 expo in 2010.

and one of the concept art can be seen in the Progress City blog post Lost Disneylandia

also there was a overview and the ride's  map,  (progress city does not have on their blog anymore)
