From Steve Birnbaum brings you the best of Disneyland 1982:
Based on the October 1949 Disney release The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad-which itself was inspired by Kenneth Grahame's classic novel, The Wind in the Willows-this attraction is one of those involved in the 1982-83 Fantasyland renovation. The designs have made what was originally a fairly primitive experience into something altogether splendid, from the queue area-an exterior view of Mr. Toad's ancestral mansion that looks very much like the Toad Hall seen on the Storybook Land Canal Boat cruise to the jigging and jagging, frenetic, and cacophonous experience inside.
