About this episode
The episode explores the hidden stories and mysteries of the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction at Disneyland, focusing on the bayou and its history.
What happened to the fireflies in Pirates of the Caribbean? Has the old man always lived in the bayou? And who is Charles T., anyway? On this episode of Distory with Kate & Kirk, we enter the doors of Disneyland’s Pirates of the Caribbean and head into the bayou to find some lost history of this iconic attraction. Along the way, we discover the origins (and changes) of the buried treasure tableaux, examine the details and history of the load area, and find some unsolved mysteries as we float deeper into the bayou. Kirk shares some fascinating history of Louisiana’s swamp people, Kate explains the origins of fireflies and “Cajun Joe,” and we both listen in awe to some rare audio from Walt Disney Imagineering. - Jean Lafitte research by Long Forgotten Haunted Mansion Blog - Join us LIVE on YouTube every week!
