I’m going to assume that new readers to my Disney Tips & Trip Reports website will not know much about the things that I love (aside from Disney!), and as I write blog posts on this website, you’ll soon find out more about me (and my family), but for now, let me tell you that Halloween is my favourite time of year! I think I may even get more excited for that, than Christmas. So being able to go to Walt Disney World for Halloween in 2015 was AWESOME! Even more so going to MNSSHP on 31st October itself, it was like all my Halloweens had come at once!
You can read about our night at MNSSHP as part of my Halloween in the Wilderness 2015 Trip Report ยป Day 9 – This Is Halloween.
We also went to the party twice in 2016, so keep an eye on my WDW-40, 2016 Trip Report for when they come out.
Here are some of the things that you can expect at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!
What is Mickeyโs Not-So-Scary Halloween Party?
MNSSHP is a family friendly special event, separate from regular Magic Kingdom Park admission.It requires the purchase of a ticket for the party which runs on selected nights during August, September, October, and November. The party officially starts at 7pm till midnight, but you can enter the park from 4pm. Theme park admission is not included in the price of the ticket, the ticket only covers your party entry.
Trick-Or-Treat
This is the one night that adults can dress up in costumeโฆand you can go trick or treating! Of course, children can too! There are trick-or-treat locations dotted around Magic Kingdom where you can fill your goodie bag with candy and chocolate. Iโve heard that the quietest times are towards the end of the evening โ which also saves having to carry all of that candy around! You can check out the 2015 Trick-or-Treat map here. Also, please check the newest costume guidelines for the party, as changes have been made.
Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular
The 3 mischievous Sanderson Sisters decide to use their magic to host a decidedly wicked fun fest. Enlisting the help of the Disney Villains, Winifred, Mary and Sarah mix sinister shadows and terrifying nightmares to conjure the ultimate Hocus Pocus Party Potionโand cast a spell on everyone in Magic Kingdom park! Look for appearances from Dr. Facilier, Oogie Boogie and Maleficent. Combine them and other great Disney Villains with amazing dancers, wild visual projections and otherworldly special effects to make Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular a new, not-to-be-missed Halloween treat! โ Walt Disney World
The show is performed on the Castle Forecourt Stage.
Mickeyโs โBoo-To-Youโ Halloween Parade
The grandmaster of this bone-rattling parade has truly lost his head! A hair-raising ride by the Headless Horseman himself begins the festivities, followed by a collection of frightening floats featuring Disney Characters in Halloween costumes. Get ready for the grave diggers! The Haunted Mansion stars in this delightful parade. Itโs really not so scaryโjust fiendish fun! โ Walt Disney World
I love, love, LOVED this parade!! The theme song is so catchy that you find yourself singing it as the parade floats past! It is shown twice, and the second parade is less busy. We watched it twice from two different locations, and it was just as awesome both times.
Happy HalloWishes Fireworks
The Ghost Host from the Haunted Mansion invites you to โdrop inโ as Disney Villains light up the night with fireworks and a wicked version of melodies from Disneyโs past that echo through the nightโ and creepy colors crawl over Cinderella Castle. The โscare-abrationโ gets into full swing when some of Disneyโs most celebrated (and hated) villainsโincluding Maleficent, Ursula, Cruella de Vil, Jafar and Oogie Boogieโ croon their scary tunes and do their best to steal the show. โ Walt Disney World
Now, these fireworks are FANTASTIC! We saw them on the night of the party, as well as from California Grill, where we had dinner a few nights before. Seeing them from way up there was so cool, as you see just how far out the fireworks expand. We also managed to catch them one night driving back to Wilderness Lodge, and could just see them from outside the front of the resort. Can’t wait to see HalloWishes again.
Character Meet & Greets
Some of these characters only come out for Mickeyโs Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, so if you want to see them, make sure you start lining up as soon as you can, as those lines get long! Some of them also dress up in their Halloween costumes*, so that’s very cool.
