Disney Meets DC Comics For A Haunted Mansion Crossover

by Jill Pantozzi | 4:35 pm, April 23rd, 2013

Walt Disney World’s Epcot International Food & Wine Festival is happening right now and while there are countless delectable items to eat, you won’t be able to get your grubby hands on these. In an exhibit called “The Chocolate Experience: From The Bean to the Bar” chocolatiers Ghirardelli have formed yummy candy into works of art – Disney art, that is! And no, they didn’t stick to just Disney proper. Take a look, but don’t touch, these awesome dioramas.
