Vintage Walt Disney World: Looking Back at Epcot’s Maelstromposted on July 5th, 2012 by Nate Rasmussen, Archivist, Marketing Resource CenterOn this day back in 1988, the trolls of the Maelstrom attraction at Norway Pavilion at Epcot began shouting “Disappear! Disappear!” to guests traveling nearby. Below is a rare look into the attraction while still under construction on July 15, 1987.Although the Norway pavilion opened in May 1988, it wasn’t until July 5 when Maelstrom had its official opening.Originally called SeaVenture, as shown above in the construction photo from March 1988, theMaelstrom still takes guests on an incredible voyage through the past, present and mythological world of Norway.http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2012/07/vintage-walt-disney-world-looking-back-at-epcots-maelstrom/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I've always enjoyed that ride. Except the movie at the end...I usually walk on through. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
