Delightfully Bewitching New Details about Villians Land at Magic Kingdom

By Disney Destinations

Magic Mirror on the wall, which land is the most menacing and magnificent of them all? This question was answered during the Disney Experiences showcase, Horizons: A Carousel of Progress.

 

Villains Land will bring a devious and dark “magic” to the Magic Kingdon, while managing to be cohesive with the storytelling of the broader park.

What is the Storyline of Villains Land?

References from classic characters from Walt Disney animation Studios will inspire Villains Land, while the overarching story is a brand new, original take on those iconic villains. The Magic kingdom invites you into a fairytale and Villains Land is no exception…

 

In many fairytales, the real journey begins when you stray from the safe path and instead turn towards the vast, foreboding forest. If you dare enter the forest of Villains Land, you may soon come across a Wishing Well that’s been torn asunder. Under most circumstances, a Wishing Well would indicate pure and good energy at work, but something dark happened to this one. Once upon a time, someone made an evil wish here – a wish so evil it corrupted the stone and broke oopen the structure, spreading the Well’s poisoned magic through the forest.

 

This sinister setting is tempting for those with wicked intentions, so, one by one, the villains have come here to try and claim the last of the Wishing Well’s power. Villains Land will be shaped by those who have used the dark magic to conjure the perfect new lairs for themselves. These mighty fortresses and gleaming palaces not only reflect the personality of the villains who own the, they invite guests into a tantalizing treasure trove of treats, trinkets, and more temptations. The size and scale were compared to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, so there will be no shortage of space to explore and enjoy a bit of mischievous fun.

 

Villains Land will have two major attractions, in addition to shops and restaurants.

Maleficent Coaster in Villains Land

The first is an exhilarating coaster experience, where guests will come face-to-face with the Mistress of All Evil herself, Maleficent. Guests will race through enchanted briar surrounding her frightening mountaintop fortress – if you’re feeling brave enough to answer her invitation. This coaster will include elements they’ve never attempted before on similar attractions, so it is set to be a truly groundbreaking project.

Mirror Realm Dark Ride in Villains Land

                                                                                                 

There’s a second headlining attraction of Villains Land: a ride featuring a whole array of your favorite Disney Villains – hosted by the Magic Mirror.

 

Guests will find the Magic Mirror when the Evil Queen keeps him in the catacomby beneath her pristine palace. After making their way to him, he’ll magically transport you into his mystical Mirror Realm to see things on the other side of the mirror. There, in his ethereal real, guests will be transfixed by countless Disney Villains conjured in ways only the Magic Mirror can do. A combination of special effects and physical set pieces will bring his Mirror Realm – and these iconic Villains – to life.
