60379 - Disney Story Beyond - Haunted Mansion - Constance the Bride Portrait - Tokyo Disneyland Resort

Pin Description:

"Many Disney Parks fans love to explore the storyworld of our attractions, and the guests at Tokyo Disney Resort are no exception. As a way to enrich that experience, we are embarking on a new storytelling program at Tokyo Disney Resort, “Disney Story Beyond.” The program will focus on one attraction and area at a time and develop stories that go beyond those guests may be familiar with. While respecting the existing stories, we will add new plot elements and characters for guests to interact with."

This pin from Tokyo Disneyland features the Haunted Mansion bride, Constance Hatchaway. The Disney Story Beyond campaign would be the first time Tokyo Disneyland referred to their bride as Constance, which makes this some of the first Constance Hatchaway merchandise from Tokyo Disneyland.

The molded metal frame that holds her closely resembles a picture frame, like the ones seen in the attic. It's draped with pearls to mimic the ones she received from her many husbands, and has roses in the upper left corner. The ribbon at the bottom of the frame labels her as 'Constance the Bride'.

The printed insert, covered with epoxy, displays Constance in her beautiful wedding dress, a bouquet of faded roses held in her left hand. She has lilac hair, and a sinister expression on her face, and her veil is topped by roses. In her right hand she's shown holding a lit candle with a ghostly blue flame, in contrast to her typical depictions with a hatchet. Because Tokyo Disneyland did not change the bride model when reimagining the Tokyo Haunted Mansion for the Disney Story Beyond campaign, she is the only version of Constance shown holding a candle, with the beating heart effect still in place on her chest.
