This recording was never released on tape. Only the Haunted Mansion Story and Song was ever released on tape.

 

Sorry to correct you Hallowiener —

The Disney's Haunted House 1979 edition was released on tape. It was sold on a cardboard blister-card-like sheet that looked like a miniaturized and cropped LP album cover. The cassette itself was orange with a white label.

I know this because I have it on tape, but mine was ruined as the result of improper storage in the last 25+ years. Now it doesn't play back properly.

 

I should have read Chef's page HERE better at his Doombuggies site. He writes this on that page:

"Walt Disney Studios' Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House
Out of print (Walt Disney Storyteller Records 2507B, Vinyl/Cassette release"

Sorry. It must be pretty rare because I've never seen one on ebay ever.

 

No harm, no foul.

 

Here ya go -
Haunted Dimensions - "Chilling, Thrilling Sounds Of The Haunted House"

Check this out.

I KNEW we had this in my house when I was growing up in the '60's.

 

That's the website that uses my LP rip for his readers to listen to. He specifically asked me to leave the pops and clicks in it. I belong to Dedicated To Lemax. Several members are now in the process of putting together several of his 3-D Paper Models to use in their Spookytown Villages. The quality of his cutouts is outstanding.

 

Is this the cassette you had? I hope so because I just bought it off ebay. Unfortunately no inserts. It says "Seven Frigtening Situations" on the label which is what is on Side 1 of the 1979 LP. I only ask because the seller has it described as the 1964 version with Laura Olsher. I don't think it is though. I wrote the seller and told him that if the tape I get isn't the one in his photo I will be wanting a full refund.

 

That's it!

You found it -- Same label, but a different plastic cassette case (hopefully not due to sun bleaching). That's great Halloweiner!

Any chance you and I can make an arrangement?

Also, thanks for the heads up Wolfman, but that link goes to the original 1964 version, which has been remastered and released on iTunes already —

Which can be purchased through this link:
iTunes Store - Walt Disney Sound Effects Group - Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House

 

Do you just want a copy of it, or would you like the tape itself. Either way is fine with me. If you want a didgital copy I can do it free. If you want the tape it would be $11.50 (WITH SHIPPING) which is what I paid for it. I'd want to rip a copy for myself first though.

I guess we should wait until I receive it, and make sure what I receive is what the seller has pictured.

 

Either way it sounds like a plan. Drop me a line when it arrives. If you can digitize it in a CD-quality bit rate and webmail, I'll clean it up and send it back to you.

Amazing how quick you found it. I was just on eBay the other day looking myself. What search words did you use?

 

I set the search to music and left it blank. Then I clikced on "Cassette", and then typed in "'Disney Chilling Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House". It was the only item that came up for a result. I'll get back to you when it arrives, and I can check it out. I can digitize it no problem at 320kbps. Then I'll send you a zip of the wav files you can edit.

If I had someone's scan of the Tape Inserts I could print some out on card stock, and make my own exact insert. I guess I can always make an insert from my LP cover scans also.

Saw those. Very cool. If I ever get the time, I'll try putting one together.

Equally cool is this "Escape from the Haunted Mansion" Board Game

Not the same as the official game with the spinning floor tiles (which my best friend in grade school owned), but credit goes to its creator for homage to the ride as well as the old school gaming factor.

 

I have a version of the LP ripped to mp3. I like the pop and clicks of the LP. I miss my vinyl collection.
Someone had a link to download it. I'll try to find it and try to post it for you.

 

I have both versions posted already:

1964 Version

1979 Version

 

Halloweiner, thanks again for the links. You posted them last year and that is where I downloaded them from. I use these SFX all the time in my show and my haunt.

 

I just got the 1979 Cassette I won in the mail. It IS in fact the 1979 Version. So I'll be getting it ripped and edited to share later.

 

Anyone needing cuts from either th' HM ride, or Chillin' Thrillin' LP, I 'ave them on me Font & Music page, link is in me sig line..

The tape I got didn't come with an insert, but I made one for it today on card stock. You can see it in the atatchment.

 

Disney album

yeah that is a good scary album for Halloween and rated G for the kids..so good choice. I always put on the cable channel that has music playing all day and for Halloween there is always a good station that has scary music or theme holiday music.

 

Weiner, thanks for posting those files. I've been trying to find that record forever, short of buying it. I downloaded the files and pasted them all together in Audacity, and i'm listening to it right now. I listened to it so many times as a kid; i don't know how the library kept lending it to us! But i remember almost every bit of it. Thanks again!

 

You're welcome. Here's the rip to Side #! of the Cassette Version of the 1979 Chilling Thrilling recording:

1979 Chilling Thrilling Side #1 Cassette Version

1979 Chilling Thrilling Side #2 Cassette Version

Ok there are both sides of the tape. I kept all of the wav file rips if anyone would want copies of those to edit for themselves. I don't think you're going to do much better than I did with Goldwave Pro however.

 

Thank you Weiner!

 

You're welcome!!

 

Thanks Halloweiner! I too just came across another copy of the cassette, but I'm downloading your mp3s all the same.

 

You're welcome. If anyone ever needs a cassette insert for this tape let me know. I worked it out where I can print one out on card stock that fits perfectly into a cassette case.

 

How cool!

Thanks so much for what you've done. I visited Disney in about '74 and enjoyed the Haunted Mansion so much I bought the LP with the orange jacket. Unfortunately the album is long gone. I was back with my kids last year and got to go through the HM 4 times with my six year old. Thanks for the memories.
