“There are three things that affected me growing up: Ray Harryhausen movies, Disneyland - particularly the Haunted Mansion, the Tiki Room, and Pirates of the Caribbean - and obviously the Muppets,” Thatcher, who’s worked with the Muppets for 35 years, told IndieWire. Little does the pair know about the 999 happy haunts that live there - and those haunts’ desire to make Gonzo No. Following the success of last year’s short-form Disney+ series “Muppets Now,” Thatcher is getting his wish with the new “ Muppets Haunted Mansion.” The 40-minute special sees the Great Gonzo, along with his friend Pepe the Prawn, visit the titular Haunted Mansion in the hopes of spending the night. Director Kirk Thatcher has worked with the Muppets for decades and, in all that time, he’d been hoping to help orchestrate a Halloween special.
