Leaving the Ballroom, the vehicles enter the Bride's Boudoir (which replaces the attic scene in the regular rides). A dying fire is crackling in the fireplace. Guests then see Melanie who has given up looking for her long lost groom. Melanie sits weeping into a mirror as an old woman while her father's skeletal face stares back at her. All the while, a music box plays, as well as an old gramophone. Prior to 2019, Melanie in this scene was still an old lady, but the mirror was fogged up to look like an actual skull, in reference to the Allan Gilbert painting, All is Vanity. The clock displayed in the room has a blade pendulum, in reference to Edgar Allan Poe's "The Pit and the Pendulum," which was also the basis for a movie featuring Vincent Price.
