Best non-canon Disney couple round 2: Dakota x Cavendish vs Hatbox x Bride

Dakota x Cavendish

Hatbox x Bride

Dakota x Cavendish: "Dakota literally went back in time hundreds of times to save Cavendish from dying, creating duplicates of himself in the process which he then stored on a deserted island. these alternate Dakotas literally have to live out their entire lives on an island with no connection to the outside world just because they love Cavendish that much. someone asks if it's worth it and he jusr goes "he's Cavendish, what're you gonna do?""

Hatbox x Bride: "These two don't have one canon personality (the HM franchise, the lore and its characters have the particularily to change in every adaptation) and in her case not one design (though I love her faceless bright eyed shadowy look, creepier and less human) and Disney tries to make us believe she never existed or is the Black Widow Bride, all I know is that back then the Beating Heart Bride aka Emily and the Hatbox Ghost were canonically groom and bride haunting the attic together and their gigs worked together. The potential of a romance between such creepy odd looking ghosts with the taller younger woman and the smaller older man always fascinated me and sounds much more interesting than the other adaptations that depict her with Mr Prettyface Ghost (Master Gracey)"

Saw a video of the "Tapestry of Happiness" projection for the Disneyland 70th, and I am obsessed that they managed to fit in a bit of Hattie/Emily when they featured Haunted Mansion--Hattie is off wandering around, and Emily (interestingly enough, in her original design rather than the current one) is right behind him, not about to be separated again for another 56 years.

Strong urge to draw Audrey as the beating heart bride from the haunted mansion.

This one.

Additionally: Seymour as the hatbox ghost.

After the recent change in Disneyland, Hattie is very happy to have his bride back ❤️✨

Meanwhile, Connie’s gotta find somewhere new to live… I hear the Hollywood Tower Hotel is nice.

I missed them, so they're back hehe

i'm so out of practice drawing these two but cmon. i had to do something for the occasion

if there's one really good thing about the new HM renovation: wifey is BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i like to think they're very happy being together again, for real this time (hatty is right across from her in the ride now, that fact brings me immense joy)

My own concept for The Hatbox Ghost and the Beating Heart Bride's deaths (As a Heartbox shipper)

I like to smush together the theories that Emily is a heartbroken bride and that Hattie is her groom. I imagine the Emily died from a heart attack because of the glowing heart and Hattie died from decapitation(duh).

So my theory is that they were engaged to be married but on the day of the wedding Hattie was decapitated by a jealous suitor in love with Emily, and his head hidden in a hatbox. Take your pick, could be anyone in the mansion, or even someone who didn't end up there. Because he never made it, Emily assumed he stood her up and went looking for him to find out why.

When she saw his decapitated body my theory goes one of two ways:

1.) Emily was so horrified that she had a heart attack and died on the spot

2.) Emily stayed cradling his dead body until she died of starvation and thirst.
