A lightning strike at Japan's Tokyo Disney Resort shut down power across the theme park Tuesday afternoon, leaving some guests stranded inside buildings that quickly went from whimsical to downright creepy.

The outage began at about noon , according to Mashable, and in addition to the rides shutting off, fountains and music went silent across the park. Nobody was injured during the outage , the Asahi Shimbun reported, and riders were escorted out of darkened attractions safely.

"Unsurprisingly, throwing anything Disney-related into complete darkness makes for one spooky, post-apocalyptic scene, as evidenced by the photos that came out of the blackout ," writes Gizmodo.

During the blackout, several guests posted images to social media that showed how eerie some of those otherwise cheery rides can be when the lights go off.
