32 Surprisingly Dark Facts About Disney

Disney! It's the happiest place on Earth! A dream factory that exists in the real world, pumping out amazing moments of pure imagination straight into our brains through movies, television, and full-scale capitalist wet dream locations in the middle of a Florida swamp! So many of us have warm and fuzzy nostalgic memories of Disney-- be it their classic animated films, the second renaissance with hits like ‘Beauty & The Beast’ or ‘The Lion King’, or even more recent pop culture staples like Star Wars or Marvel movies… But, like all things you love, there's a weird dark side to the corporate happiness monolith. Have you seen how freaking expensive those parks are, even without factoring in parking or food? What about the creepy abandoned properties? The weird rules about underwear that basically gave everyone who worked there pubic lice? Oh, and that's not even getting into the wild amount of Nazi stuff!
