Possible off season updates before 2027???

I know the season ends in less than 4 weeks...but do you think they will probably show or give updates of changes to the park coming before the 2027 opening?

Wish list:

Refurb the parking lot, bring back a tram lol or something like it.

Come up with good replacement names, characters etc.

Any ideas?

Next season opinions (already)

With this season winding down (hard to believe), and the CEO made a comment about Justice League beinging replaced with something different, this sounds like we are losing the Warner Brothers/DC IP. What do you think will be the rethemeing or renaming? Will they rename the Holiday Inn or buy it? Or rename the road and replace the highway signs on I-44? What do you think will be happening during the off season?

Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House 1964 and 1978

Even though this is kinda off topic (but related) Walt Disney Productions released on Disneyland Records these classic Halloween sound effect records. On side A told 10 terrifying situations in sound, side B has just sound effects for personal use. Same goes for the the 1978 version but it was a little more .... horrifying. Not suitable for younger children under 10. But I would say it would be up to you. Ultimately the records became "out of print". You could find some on E-bay. Or on Disney Music Emporium.com but you can download them on YouTube Music or Spotify. You can also get on CD "The story of The Haunted Mansion" which was released when the ride opened at Disneyland in 1969 that had a young "Ronnie Howard as Mike" and Robboe Lester as Karen on Amazon for 12.99 I believe. HAPPY EARLY HALLOWEEN!!!

1960 Paramount "release"

This was originally on Alfred Hitchcock 's "Psycho" which was his final film he owed on his contract to Paramount Pictures. They refused to finance the production by he produced it himself and they released it but not officially claimed it. Thats why it doesn't have a Paramount Picture logo to this day on the print eveen on the DVD releases.
