Enchanted Tales with Belle Preview w/ Maurice’s Cottage, Magic Mirror, Madame Wardrobe, Lumiere and Belle! – Photos and Full Video

Hi everyone!

We have been very fortunate to have the opportunity to bring you “first looks” at different areas of Fantasyland. From Gaston in front of Gaston’s Tavern, to the sign in front of Be Our Guest Restaurant, we’ve found new details that we’ve enjoyed sharing with you.  Today we’ll be taking a look at Maurice’s Cottage behind the walls of the new Fantasyland! A friend of ours was invited by a Cast Member to preview this location yesterday, including “Enchanted Tales with Belle“.  He could either photograph or videotape at any given time, so we have photos of the outside and inside of Maurice’s Cottage, but only video of the experience within.  In the future, we’ll have both covered fully! Cast members in their new costumes lined the walkways to Maurice’s Cottage (below, left). The cottage itself has been seen quite a bit online, and has a whimsical look to it (below, right). There is even a wishing well!

Once inside, you can see the fireplace (below, left) and a stack of books beside a desk (below, right). There are many parts of Belle’s childhood referenced here.

Along the wall, you can see references to Mrs. Potts and Chip (below, left), along with Belle and her mother in a portrait on the wall. On the right side, there are references to Lumiere and what almost looks like the Footstool (below, right).

The landscaping is lush and woodsy around Maurice’s Cottage (below, left). Two Imagineers stand in front of another section of new Fantasyland (below, right).  We were told by our friend that one of the best parts of this new experience is the enchanted, magic mirror, which expands into a doorway which leads guests into Beast’s Castle.  In the video below, you’ll also see an impressive audio-animatronic of Madame Wardrobe in an extended role.

Video #1 – Enchanted Tales with Belle Full Preview, Fantasyland – Madame Wardrobe, Lumiere – Maurice’s Cottage – Friends of ours were invited to enjoy a preview of Maurice’s Cottage and Enchanted Tales with Belle, which transports guests into Beast’s Castle through a Magic Mirror. Included here are Madame Wardrobe, Lumiere, and Belle!

Video #2 – Enchanted Tales with Belle Finale in New Fantasyland During Previews, Magic Kingdom – Lumiere – We received 2 videos from a friend who was invited to preview Enchanted Tales with Belle at the Magic Kingdom today. This is a continuation of the first video
