C.A.T. (Chris’s Attraction Trivia): Phantom Manor

In Phantom Manor at Disneyland Paris, The narration was done by legendary actor Vincent Price.

His voice was not used in the attraction because Disneyland Paris wanted the French language track. So they used the voice of French actor Gerard Chevalier.

However, they used Vincent Price’s Laughing Voice for the Phantom.

Note: The Phantom only laughs in the attraction!!
