and that is EXACTLY why I've never liked the Phantom Manor facade. It just looks too much like the Psycho house at Universal Studios........doesn't have any of the charm and originality of the Mansions at DL and WDW. I admit, it IS a very impressive structure, just too reminiscent of the Bates house. Disney could've and should've come up with something a bit more original. The first time I saw it, it screamed out "PSYCHO HOUSE"...and Im sure many people worldwide will also think that way.......who knows, maybe Disney did it intentionally to draw in the European tourists?
