1971 Walt Disney World Commercial

[axelmowmers]

She was on L, her pupil was gigantic!!

[elvis4ever1935]

Oh my God. Why the heck do they have a blonde Peter Pan in this video!?

Who cares, I love Peter Pan

[TheGiverOfDarkness22]

The thing at 0:16 always scared me when I was younger . I think it's just the way it's tongue always hung out.

[TheChristianDrummer3]

I don't think it was supossed to be scary, I mean, c'mon! I'ts Disney! I think it just came off as a little creepy, that's all.

[TheJessa1217]

Tht commercial kinda scurred me :(

[mabelxxxbsb]

Old Walt Disney Commercials were twice better than nowadays's,I think it brought more attention to the viewers,it looks more like a fairytale,which makes it suitable for children

[Thoralmir]

Accidental Nightmare Fuel...

[MichaelVitello]

It wasn't scary it was supposed to be cute.

[Alexhikari]

Wait...the Walrus had a costume!? D: Why have I not known about this till now!?

[xxxXNikitaChaseXxxx]

"Do you know the way to the MAGIC KINGDOM?"

"Sure I do..."

*STAB

[Fragglevision]

This is kinda sad for some reason...

[IssaKheelinCeles94]

oh my god, mad hat makes scary in this commercial XS

[DeuceyDee]

The Walrus? Wow! I wouldn't mind getting a pic with HIM!

[NightfallIV]

kinda creepy

[SVB2002]

That announcer sounded a lot like Orson Welles. Can anybody confirm that? 

[Fieldofgoats]

Eastern Air Lines was a major United States airline that existed from 1926 to 1991.

Oh thank god, no more commercials from these guys.

[gummi7]

is that Gretel from the Sound of music??

[popcorntommy]

Dayum that advert is so dark and creepy!

Who would take there kids there after seeing that!?

[adlereagle123]

it wasnt that creepy guys , cmon' ive seen creepier commercials before, this wasnt creepy at all lol

[QueenAnime99]

@adlereagle123 I'm sure you've seen creepier commercials, but keep in mind that this is a commercial for Disney World, which is insanely kid-friendly. This commercial is kind of like an acid trip.

[adlereagle123]

@QueenAnime99 this is what TV was like back then, there wasn't special animation , they only had people dress up in costumes. Now the generation seeing that now -a - days its just creepy haha, idk it wasn't that creepy to me. ;P

[QueenAnime99]

@adlereagle123 I've seen some commercials from this time period so I am familiar with them. I just find this one a tad bit creepy and acid tripper-y. But I can understand if one doesn't find it creepy. Good day. :D

[adlereagle123]

@QueenAnime99 lol you too, I'm gonna send you a YouTube friend request (:

[QueenAnime99]

@adlereagle123 Thanks. Okay. I'll look out for it. :D

[holbrooke7]

I wonder how WDW patrons would react to the Big Bad Wolf nowadays...

[zingarzahoy26]

It's not really sca

[kermitdefrog123]

hypnotizing

[MicahLuvFun26]

I'm thinking the girl in this video is Jodie Foster right?

[Shellblossom]

0:50

OH GOD, 9/11 COMING RIGHT AT YOU.

[Kartoonkid95]

So she totally freaks out when she sees a walking elephant!

[adlereagle123]

@Kartoonkid95 i think that was Dumbo

[nutballgazette]

That is freaky

[kevo1296]

That is Orson Welles!!!!

[hodoboc]

Dick's house is better...

[charrr550]

@hodoboc What is Dick's house? lol..

[juneradar]

@hodoboc Holy crap, SHUT UP!!

[dramagirl567]

@hodoboc i always see the dick's house on every comment cause of that vid

[xXDeadToastXx]

DAMN! Thems costumes are scurry!!!

[seatspud]

Am I crazy, or did that sound like Orson Welles at the end?

[TwiztedMannix87]

glad i wasn't high or it be trippy as fuck

[happydancer62]

I'm booking a surprise for my family I did my research at bestvaluethemeparks (.) com

[slicetwiceknife]

dont talk to strangers especialy if theyre in the woods fhkn

[mikethemike232]

.... said lil red riding hood's mum.

[demoman87]

MuuuaaaHAAAAA! the Disney...amusement park has always been celebrated for its excellence. There is a California park by Walt Disney inspired by that same American excellence.

[cheerandfluvit]

SO glad they fixed the mad hatter!

[IJDS99]

this reminds me of snow white

[horrorjunkie92]

Why would they make it that creppy? xD

[moviesperson100001]

@horrorjunkie92 well, i'm sure it wasn't creepy for that time.

[horrorjunkie92]

@moviesperson100001 I think the advert should have had more than one breif shot of park footage. It was just a girl lost in the forrest with creepy shit. People could have gotten the wrong impression and thought Disneyland was actually that crappy.

[moviesperson100001]

@horrorjunkie92 and btw, this is a commercial for walt disney world not disneyland.

[horrorjunkie92]

@moviesperson100001 Is that the one in FL? Because that's what I was thinking of. 

[moviesperson100001]

@horrorjunkie92 It's the one in Florida!! I thought you were mentioning the one in California since you said Disneyland!!! The one in Florida is Walt Disney World Resort, and the one in California in Disneyland Resort!!!!

[horrorjunkie92]

@moviesperson100001 I've always referred to both as "Disneyland". Bad habbit I guess.

[thedragoonknight]

This would make me want to go there XD

[DisneyLover61605]

that was waaay creepy

[TheRandomCritic4265]

The Wings of Man

[CosplayCore]

ITS ALICE!

[OctoberLandon]

HA!  Is Eastern Airlines still the official airline of Disney???

[TheRandomCritic4265]

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO DOPEY'S FACE?!?!?! IT LOOKS LIKE A SMASHED POTATO!!!!!

[brb1006]

@TheRandomCritic4265 that the 70's for yeah pal

[sweetlilchickie1985]

Were the people who created this ad on drugs??? How could they think this would attract children to DisneyWorld? IF anything, it would scare them away!!

[mrwaltdisneyworldfan]

After Walt's death, His brother Roy, a banker, came out of retirement to become the "Man behind the magic." He took on the project full force, from start to finish. After completion of WDW, Roy decided to change the name from "disney World" to "Walt Disney World" in honor of Walt's legacy.

[mrwaltdisneyworldfan]

The Florida project was mainly about Walt's vision of a conceptual city of the future. Today, that is almost the case with EPCOT. Although EPCOT is not what Walt envisioned. It wasn't until 1995 that The Walt Disney Company built Celebration,Fl. A sort-of version of the original EPCOT plan. I actually have a house there, as well as one in NJ, and it truly is a wonderful town.

[utubeguy35]

THIS IS A AD FOR AN AIRLINE. EASTERN AIRLINES

[ehiggin]

Happy Halloween.

[dsneybuf]

Imagine if during DIsney World's 40th anniversary, they remake this commercial with a live girl meeting (less scary) animated characters.

[alex19330]

@dsneybuf Thatd be pretty beast...

[ngames1]

lol FAIL

[KittyHelloKat]

this scary. the mans voice at the end is scarier!

[booty5584]

@KittyHelloKat

the guy at the end is Orsen Wells. He was a great actor and did a lot of voice over stuff for disney. He ans Walt were good friends

[latinababy1000]

How is this scary again? I love Disney I go Almost once a month maybe more wat a classic :)

[13blkdiva]

This commercial is classic!!!!

I love it!

[slbebe]

its not creepy..but the narrator at the end is..

[xThatOneNurdx]

...

[wickedkid905]

does anyone else think this video is creepy

[CaptainConnorsaurus]

Walter Disney's world is the best ever created. im goin to epcot in like a month for spring break, disney world ftw.

[gdwtwilight]

tht sux actually. its always soo crowded for spring break tht u cnt go on anything

[CaptainConnorsaurus]

@gdwtwilight haha, i havent been in such a long time that i dont really care. itll be fun just to be there again C:

[gdwtwilight]

@captainconnorsaurus. haha i know wht u mean. i used to live in disney and go like more than once a month. but i jst recently moved and i miss it so much already. im going back for a weekend like in a week :) so excited

[vladradforpres5]

@CaptainConnorsaurus How can Disneyworld be the best created? if it wasnt for disneyland, world wouldnt exist. Disney himself didnt even have anything to do with world. DW is just the imitation. Land is the authentic park

[CaptainConnorsaurus]

@vladradforpres5 actually, i believe he had quite a bit to do with it. he inspected the site, purchased the land, made all the calls, and made all the designs. of course he died before it was finished, and the new owners of the company made changes, but he was involved quite a bit. and i get what you're saying, it DOES have a bit more of an authentic feel, but world just kicks lands ass imo.

[tvgator1]

@vladradforpres5 WRONG! Walt Disney World was Walt Disney's ultimate dream. He completely planned all of it. From buying all that land in central florida to pretty much getting his way with having complete autonomy from state and local laws. It is litterally his WORLD. Sure he died before it completed, but he saw most of it get done. He made sure that WDW would be 10 times better, and bigger than Disneyland.

[fatboytjc]

@tvgator1 You do realize that in general both disneyworld and disneyland isnt really what walt visioned. He died before all of the main attractions that most people go to disneyland and disneyworld was made, such as space mountain, thunder mountain, splash mountain, etc.

[TheAlaskaTiger]

0:11 freaks me out the most! lol but i love Disney world but yeah this advert is just a bit too creepy ;p

[donnyP3216]

man this IS scary

[ItsUrFavoriteGuy]

holy shit... lmao

[moviekid1]

that is some seriously scary shit. peter pan is like evil.

[TheRoxy0310]

yeah i think if i saw that when i was little i wouldve cried haha

[danii421]

k if i was a kid that would not make me wanna go to disney thats some scary shit lmaoo

[SuppScott]

*in a deadly serious voice*

You can fly.

cracks me up everytime.

[ScorpiusLord3636]

Oh dear god.

[TheGeorgianskater]

this is a frightening commercial, but WDW is the best place on the face of the earth, NO CONTEST!

[iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13]

@TheGeorgianskater Second best-next to NYC

[TheGeorgianskater]

@iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13 I have wanted to go to New York since I came to the US! I def want to go on my own when I turn 18, im just a little afraid because I don't wanna wind up in the wrong neighborhood.

[iLOVEthe80TWILIGHT13]

@TheGeorgianskater Oh it's really not that bad. I mean, once you get used to city-life and all. I used to live there but I moved when I was 11. I'm 14 now. But yeah NYC is amazing.

[EvilUncleFrank]

And just when you think it can't get any creepier, THE VOICE OF ORSON WELLES!!! Magnificent.

[TheRandomCritic4265]

00:11- 00:13 HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

[nostalgiajunkie70]

And now, for the catagory: Not meant to be scary, but terrirfying as HELL!

[HiddenxxMickey]

[DisneyMissieMouse]

[img921]

WHOA, that was freaky beyond belief! What was with the Big Bad Wolf coming out and doing that creepy laugh?!?!

[Eddy2730]

@img921 If that wasn't enough, can I suggest looking for my video (type in 'Zeke Midas Wolf's laugh').

[nick198222]

too creepy to be disney lol

[BlueDragon992]

HOLY CRAP! Those early character costumes were creepy as hell!

Thank god they shrank the heads now.

[jakecasper]

I know did u see the Mad Hatter

[inadiaxue]

Creepy, just plain ole creepy.

[walkerjusty]

I am amazed they ever got anyone to visit!

[carbonply]

[MegaAdam1000]

[TheDeadDeadsons]

"Can you fly?"

"No"

"Goddamn it!"

[arrielleee]

creepy......

[donaldTfox]

geeeeezis  O.O

[dsneybuf]

I dare you to find a better example of how much Disney struggled under Ron Miller.

[kmayy137]

0:13, with the music, expression, and everything, is incredibly horrifying.

[Hypnotoad27]

OH! SO I GET IT! if you parent's don't take you to Disney World, you'll be trapped in a forest of Disney characters! Sounds like fun!

[Funmusichits]

@Hypnotoad27 lol i guess im in one right now XD

[chrissymee]

It is a bit scary..... thank God the costumes have changed!!!!

[GNRfan97]

you are very right

[HoshiHikari]

Well, if you consider how dolls and teddy bears looked in the early 20th century, you'd think these costumes are adorable.

[theminidevil22]

oh yeah

[Ricardito5579]

so.....surreal.....

[Disneypark101]

that is very truly creepy

[ronatie]

Is that Orson Welles doing the narration at the end?

[brico29]

sounds just like him

[tomgalicia]

Eastern Airlines is going to be strong forever...but a theme park about disney? That could NEVER work

[beale081]

i hope you're being sarcastic because disney is one of the biggest and most sucsessful resort theme parks in the world.

[migaucha81]

Obviously he was being sarcastic!

Unless he lives in another planet...

[CaptainConnorsaurus]

@beale081 it is THE biggest and most successful resort and theme park in the world.

[vladradforpres5]

@CaptainConnorsaurus Disney world is just an imitation.

[callygirl567]

weird

[jakecasper]

wings of man

[jakecasper]

weird so

[jakecasper]

they changed the mad hatter's costume

[Lisax312]

That's kinda creepy. But I guess back then it was cool.

It's cute tho

[13Elphaba13]

haha omg this is soooo alice in wonderland!! haha yeah its kinda creepy but really brings out the magic of disney.

[fieldofstorms]

lol creepy commerical but the kids pretty cute.

[beastboy811]

i agree with u nicocrazy26 very scary! -shivers-

[nicocrazy26]

God :s that"s a scary commercial lol

[MoontideJM]

i remember this commercial. It was a big deal when Disneyworld opened, and it wasn't scary then. Orson Welles does the narration at the end.

[fat21s]

that is kinda freakey with the big head's why couldn't it be small heads to huge ones and i nearly scared to death with dumbo then but its is a little bit scary

[gsimons3]

ahhhh! its the poltergeist.ahhh!call 911.lol rotflol lmao rotflmao.

[spideylover]

Holy shit that scares the piss out of me!!!!

[IyagaruUzumaki]

This would be a creepy horror flick.. XD

[learningfromlyrics]

this is really creepy hahah for a disney world commercial. and the girl asks dopey for the way.. bright kid hahaha. at least it ends pretty happily, i guess lol

[sstall23]

I know this is really old and they were obviously playing on Alice in Wonderland, but it is kinda creepy. Did they think characters with gigantic heads popping out behind trees would really make kids want to go there? I would have been terrified if I'd seen the commercial as a child. It's kinda funny though.

[destinyislandgirl]

omg I swear, (ive been looking through the comments) people make up, interprit things wrongly, and overly dramatise things against Disney. Go to any other park and you'll experience worse! and then if somethig dose happen the familey is taken backstage and complain that he actor in the suites did not have their heads on... while their backstage. People who pick fights with disney are stupid and imature and just want attention.

[ShiznitXD]

when the wolf came out i thought she was gonna get raped

[eckoboy17856]

what the fuck?!?

[BamaJen]

Heheheh back when the dwarfs had gigantic heads!

[Agente00Minina]

well it's not scary for me, it's kind of weird x_X

[pescadi]

lol !!

[DenisAndrejev]

Goofy was pretty creppy in 1970's

[trooper69pj]

Wow, this commercial is creepy because its old. I want to go there.

[cheerandfluvit]

:37-:40, creepy

[SverreSA]

"The Wings Of Man"...

Wow... That must probably be one of the lamest sayings in the history of commercials...

[disneyworldrox]

im going in 2 days and 4 my birthday!! lol

[border6801]

acid trip hahaha

[Anticyclonic]

"Do you know the way to the magic kingdom?"

"Sure I do. But, can you fly-iy-iy-iy-iy-iy-iy-iy-iy-iy­..."

Jesus Murphy. This commercial is the Apocalypse.

[xcloudxburstx]

I want Walt to still be alive. D:

I LOVE WALT DISNEY AND HIS WORLD. <3

[quietrobert03]

was that orson welles?

[broadwaylove52]

haha creeeppyyy.

but cool :D

[teddymadderpadder69]

I dont get it!!!

[BillVol]

Nothing scary about this. Great memories!

[powerfullogic]

I am an Arab man. I brought my family over from Pakistan to enjoy the American experience at Disneyland. The man at the gate said No Arabs allowed! He then roughly stepped on my foot and security came out. Fuck you Walt Disney!
