Discovering Hidden Mickeys at Disney World
Uncover the Magic for Free
Looking for an exciting and free activity to enjoy at Disney World with your family? Think about searching for Hidden Mickeys! This popular pastime lets you join a community of enthusiasts who hunt for these delightful secrets.
What Are Hidden Mickeys?
You might wonder, how can Mickey Mouse be hidden? It all started as an inside joke among Disney's Imagineers. Hidden Mickeys were subtly incorporated into attractions, serving as a playful "signature." Today, the secret is out, and anyone can join the fun.
Hidden Mickeys come in two main forms. The first is the classic arrangement of three circles, resembling Mickey's silhouette. The second is a side profile, similar to the iconic Hitchcock silhouette. Part of the thrill is spotting them yourself.
Where to Find Hidden Mickeys
Embarking on this adventure means keeping your eyes peeled throughout the parks. For first-time visitors, these might go unnoticed. However, frequent guests can take on the challenge as a fresh way to explore beyond the usual rides. (Hint: Look for two Hidden Mickeys in the queue for Test Track!)
There are unofficial books to guide you, but part of the fun is the mystery. If you see people gazing around attractions with determination, they're likely on a Hidden Mickey hunt.
Getting Started
Remember, not everything Mickey-shaped is a Hidden Mickey. For instance, a Mickey-shaped ice cream isn’t. Likewise, three random objects like oranges don’t count unless they’re intentionally placed.
Here’s a tip to start: At Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom, visit the Haunted Mansion. During the ballroom scene, focus on the big table. On the bottom left corner, the place setting forms a Hidden Mickey with two saucers and a dinner plate. This isn’t an official Disney Imagineer creation, but cast members frequently set it up.
Hidden Mickeys vary widely. Another example is at Disney/MGM Studios’ Tower of Terror, where a girl in the video holds a plush Mickey Mouse.
Enjoy the Hunt
Next time you're at the parks, keep an eye out for these hidden gems. If you notice someone searching intently, ask them if it's a Hidden Mickey?"they'll likely be thrilled to share the discovery. That’s what Disney is all about: sharing joy and having fun.
