As for that new retail shop, Madame Leota will have more of a presence outside of the Haunted Mansion, with her carriage house outside the mansion being a standalone shop.
Outside of the attraction, the plaza near the new Tiana’s Palace (which opens September 7th) will be enhanced with a “new, elegant park-like setting,” perfect for relaxing and enjoying the ambiance and live entertainment. There will even be new and historic tress to provide shade!
Construction will begin in January and more will be revealed in the new year.
If you missed it, over at Disney California Adventure, the new San Fransokyo Square is opening this week!
