Fans of the Haunted Mansion at Magic Kingdom will be thrilled to learn that The Duke has made his long-awaited return to the iconic graveyard scene. After being absent for nearly a year, the animatronic figure of The Duke is once again seated at his eerie table in front of an array of tombstones. With his ghostly blue appearance, top hat, and candelabra firmly in hand, The Duke is a welcome sight for those who have missed his haunting presence.

The return of The Duke follows other notable updates to the Haunted Mansion in recent months. In November 2023, the Hatbox Ghost made his long-anticipated debut in the Endless Hallway scene, adding another layer of eerie charm to the attraction. Earlier this year, the Floating Candelabra in the Endless Hallway was also mysteriously missing for nearly five months, leaving fans speculating about the ongoing changes within the Mansion until it eventually re-appeared this past June.
