A third person has died at Walt Disney World in less than two weeks in a chilling string of fatalities that has cast a pall over The Most Magical Place on Earth.
A man died at Disney’s Contemporary Resort near Magic Kingdom Park outside Orlando, Florida, the Orange County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed to The Post.
Officials didn’t reveal the cause or specific time of death, but a TikTok video shot Thursday from a guest’s window shows police tape and a gang of officers and emergency workers in the hotel’s courtyard.
Others on social media said they were asked not to look out their balcony windows by cast members who knocked on their door, Inside the Magic reported.
“Something happened in the back of the building with crime scene tape surrounding the water fountain. I don’t know if somebody jumped or accidentally fell to their death, but something happened. And they have an employee at every single window to shield you from looking out the back so you can’t view,” another guest wrote on Facebook.
The Contemporary Resort is the same place a superfan leaped to her death last week from its iconic A-frame tower.
Superfan Summer Equitz, from the Chicago area, got married last year, honeymooned at Disney World in October and announced she was pregnant two months later — before the 31-year-old took her life in full view of horrified guests.
It’s unclear if Equitz delivered the baby.
Then, on Tuesday, a man in his 60s collapsed at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground and later died at the hospital.
Police, resort staff and medical responders were dispatched to the property after reports of a “Person Down” just after 7:30 a.m., Inside the Magic reported, citing Orange County Sheriff’s Office (OCSO).
“A man in his 60s experienced a medical episode and was transported to a local hospital, where, unfortunately, he died. There are no signs of foul play,” an OCSO spokesperson told The Post.
The Contemporary Resort — a $1,000+-per-night luxury getaway within walking distance from the Magic Kingdom park — has become a notorious spot for suicides.
In July 2023, a man allegedly took his own life at the property.
One purported hotel guest claimed “security wouldn’t allow us to take the 5th floor bridge to Contemporary this morning” in a post on X at the time.
Police corroborated the shocking incident in a statement.
“On July 26, 2023, at 5:33 a.m., deputies responded to the Contemporary Resort after a call came in about a man found unresponsive on the hotel grounds. He was pronounced deceased on scene,” the statement read.
The Contemporary Hotel, outside of Magic Kingdom, is arguably the most iconic of the more than 25 hotels on the Disney World property.
The site’s monorail, which connects the Contemporary Resort to the Magic Kingdom and multiple other hotels, runs straight into the lobby. Once there, guests can dine and take pictures with Mickey, Minnie, Pluto and Daffy at Chef Mickey’s — Disney World’s original character meal restaurant, established in 1977 and originally called Coconino Cove.
Jim Hill of the “Disney Dish” podcast previously talked to The Post about the horrific association between the Contemporary Resort and suicides.
“There’s this weird phenomenon where people who are severely depressed but want to have that one last good happy family memory will go to Walt Disney World,” Hill said in 2022.
“They’ll deliberately book a room at the Contemporary Resort, which is 14 stories tall. And after that happy family time, they will throw themselves off the building,” he said.
