Captain Culpepper Clyne's Tomb - Magic Kingdom's Haunted Mansion Interactive Graveyard Queue Mystery Collection

This captivating Open Edition (OE) pin, released in 2012 at Walt Disney World (WDW), depicts the iconic tomb of Captain Culpepper Clyne from the Magic Kingdom's Haunted Mansion attraction. Part of the "Magic Kingdom's Haunted Mansion Interactive Graveyard Queue Mystery Collection," this pin celebrates the beloved character introduced with the interactive queue addition in 2011. Captain Culpepper Clyne is famously known for his epitaph, which declares he "braved the seas and all her wrath, but drowned on land while taking a bath." The pin vividly portrays his brine-filled crypt, with the skeletal Captain emerging from what appears to be a bathtub-shaped tomb, complete with a captain's hat and seaweed-like details, as sea creature tails adorn the sides. In the attraction's queue, his ghost can be heard singing sea shanties and occasionally sneezes, spraying water, adding to the Mansion's playful spookiness. The mystery collection, consisting of eleven (11) pins, was sold in blind boxes and features a unique backstamp with symbols that correspond to a message found within the queue's Prudence Pock's crypt. Each pin in the series also features a distinctive marbleized fill, enhancing its visual appeal. Collectors value this pin for its connection to the rich lore of the Haunted Mansion and its place within a collectible mystery series.
