This enchanting Limited Edition (LE) pin, released in 2008 at Walt Disney World, is titled "Little Leota - Happy Halloween from the Haunted Mansion" and is part of a 4-pin series celebrating the spooky season. The pin features the character Little Leota, presented in a flowing white, bride-like gown and holding a blue floral bouquet, set against the iconic silhouette of the Haunted Mansion attraction. While Little Leota is traditionally known as the diminutive, crystal-ball ghost at the end of the Haunted Mansion ride, famously urging guests to "Hurry back! Hurry back!", this pin offers a unique, bridal interpretation of the character, drawing visual parallels to the Haunted Mansion's infamous Bride, Constance Hatchaway. Constance Hatchaway, introduced in a revamped attic scene in 2006 (Disneyland) and 2007 (Walt Disney World), is known for her dark backstory of marrying and murdering wealthy husbands. The pin's base is a vibrant orange, adorned with "Happy Halloween from" in yellow lettering with spider web accents, and features "The Haunted Mansion" logo at the bottom. As a Limited Edition of 2000, this pin is a desirable piece for collectors who appreciate the lore and artistry of Disney's classic Haunted Mansion attraction and its beloved "happy haunts."
This pin is a Limited Edition (LE) of 2000, making it relatively rare and sought after by collectors, especially compared to other pins in the same series that had larger edition sizes, such as the Hitchhiking Ghosts pin (LE 3000). Its desirability is significantly boosted by its association with the highly popular Haunted Mansion attraction and the perennial appeal of Halloween-themed Disney pins. The unique portrayal of Little Leota in a bride-like costume adds an intriguing artistic twist, making it a standout piece for fans of the attraction's intricate character lore.
The Haunted Mansion attraction first opened at Disneyland in 1969 and at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom in 1971, quickly becoming a fan-favorite. The character of Little Leota, voiced by Imagineer Leota Toombs, has been a part of the attraction from its early days, serving as the final spectral farewell to guests. The Bride character in the Haunted Mansion received a significant storyline and visual update in 2006-2007, introducing Constance Hatchaway, the "Black Widow Bride," who murdered her husbands for their fortunes. This pin's 2008 release coincides with the continued popularity of the revamped Haunted Mansion storyline and the annual tradition of special Halloween merchandise releases at Disney Parks.
