Summary
The attraction features an audio-animatronic dragon, which at 27 metres (89 ft) from head to tail, was the largest Animatronic figure ever built when the park opened in April 1992. The walkthrough consists of a dimly lit cavern with a large dragon sleeping silently. Occasionally it will 'wake up', puffing smoke and growling.
Design
In 1987, Imagineer Terri Hardin headed up the project; she was the sole Imagineer from Walt Disney Imagineering who created it. Hardin intended to have the skeleton of Maleficent's dragon in the lair because it was under the Sleeping Beauty Castle, but Disney didn't go for it.[5]
