A fifth person has died at a lavish Florida Disney World resort in a chilling string of deaths in less than a month that’s cast a dark shadow over the “Most Magical Place on Earth.”

The unidentified guest was reportedly pronounced dead at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa in Lake Buena Vista, just steps from Disney Springs, on Nov. 8, the Orange County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed to The Post Wednesday.

“Although there was a death at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort, we declined jurisdiction,” the Medical Examiner said in a statement, noting the body was ultimately turned over to the individual’s personal physician.

The grim news was first reported by a Disney World-focused X account “Walt Disney World: Active Calls,” which tracks real-time police activity across the massive theme park.

A person was first reported “down” at the Saratoga Springs property at 3:18 p.m., according to the account. Minutes later, it delivered a grim update that the individual was “dead.”

The Victorian-style resort — tucked between manicured golf-course greens and packed with pools and a spa — boasts studio and multi-bedroom villas complete with living and dining areas, in-room laundry and full kitchens, with some stays costing a staggering $2,300 a night, according to its website.

No further details about their mysterious death have been released.
