Here's a few new ones:

  • ABC - The more common name for the American Broadcasting Company, an major United States television network that gave Walt Disney the capital (money) needed in 1954 to help build Disneyland in exchange for creating ther first weekly anthology television series. In 1999, The Walt Disney Company and their related properties merged with Capital Cities/ABC Inc.
  • DL or DLR - Disneyland (formally called Disneyland Resort), the original Disney theme park in Anaheim, California USA.
  • HM and HMH - Haunted Mansion, the more formal name for Phantom Mansion at Disneyland, Walt Disney World and Tokyo Disneyland. Haunted Mansion Holiday is the annual layover at DL and TDL that features the characters from The Nightmare Before Christmas.
  • MNSSHP - Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween party, a hard ticket event held annually at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom and also the name of an event akin to that at DLP's Fantasyland as of 2008.
  • PoD - Walt Disney's Parade of Dreams, a parade that celebrated Disneyland's 50th Anniversary that started on May 5, 2005 (5/5/05) and is scheduled to leave in November of 2009 for Disney World's Magic Kingdom in Florida.
  • NBC or TNBC - The Nightmare Before Christmas, Tim Burton's groundbreaking stop motion animated 1994 movie first released under the Touchstone Pictures label, but since 2006 released under the Disney banner.

Please add ASAP.
