In a genius bit of marketing, Disney is offering San Diego Comic-Con attendees free rides on a Doom Buggy around San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter in promotion of the Haunted Mansion movie.
Convention attendees can hop on board a Doom Buggy pedicab outside the San Diego Convention Center for a free ride into the nearby Gaslamp Quarter. Of course, our reporters had to partake, enjoying a fun ride aboard a Doom Buggy.
Be sure to follow along right here for all of our San Diego Comic-Con 2023 coverage all weekend long.
About Haunted Mansion:
