Arezou and Candace are joined by their friend Tommy to discuss the story behind the Disneyland Paris' Haunted Mansion: Phantom Manor. They talk about the history, the refurb changes, the fictional backstory, and who is better, Constance Hatchaway or Melanie?Check out Tommy's site http://Radasheck.com and follow him on Twitter: https://twitter.com/tommy_stellaDisney's summary: Tucked away in the corner of Frontierland stands Phantom Manor, once home to one of Thunder Mesa's founding families. Residents steer clear of the dilapidated house, claiming it to be haunted, but any intrepid Disneyland Park visitors who dare to enter will soon discover its terrible secrets.The manor's owner, Henry Ravenswood, cherished his only daughter, Melanie, who attracted the attention of four different men... each of whom came to a mysterious and untimely end. Rumour said her father didn't think they were good enough for his darling girl. Some say he had a hand in the young men's disappearances, but nothing has ever been proven. One thing is sure: the bride-to-be has been waiting many long years for her wedding day... and will likely wait for hundreds more!

Star Wars Twitter is having an interesting discussion about the possibility of Din Dijarin aka the Mandalorian hooking up with Bo-Katan. She is not the first character to be shipped with Din and we doubt she will be the last.And that got us thinking Din Dijarin is shipped with a lot of different characters. There is even a trope for a character that gets paired with EVERYONE and it’s called Launcher of a Thousand Ships.
