The venerable Haunted Mansion is being made spookier than ever!

Making the Haunts Even Happier
That old, creepy, uninhabited mansion -- you know, the one where you sometimes hear mysterious sounds and see eerie apparitions? I think something's going on up there. Ever since June, I seem to hear weird noises in the dead of night ... noises suspiciously like hammering and sawing. But none of the 999 permanent residents seem to be leaving the joint. Is it possible that that place is going to get even SPOOKIER?
That's right -- in case you haven't heard the news through the ghoulish grapevine, the Magic Kingdom Park's venerable Haunted Mansion is getting a facelift. New details are being added to reward sharp-eyed spookhunters, and some high-tech magic is being put to use to create old-fashioned thrills.

YOUR QUESTION
I saw a movie as a child, I know it was a Disney movie, and it was called "Tonka." I remember the main character, Sal Mineo, and Tonka was his horse. With such vivid memories of this movie, I couldn't be making it up ... am I crazy? No one can seem to find it and I saw it 3 times, so I loved it, obviously.
- Lois, 56, Woodbury Heights, NJ

DAVE'S ANSWER
"Tonka" came out in 1958. It was released on video briefly in the 1980s, but is not currently available. Perhaps you can find a used copy somewhere.
