Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! 2018 Media Event!


Recommended Posts

If you've been reading the TPR forums for any length of time, you probably know by now that Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is by far my favorite "Halloween Event" of the season! As much as I do like the traditional scary "haunt" type of events also, there is just something fun, whimsical and very "Disney" about this event that I cannot miss every year! (In fact, this year I'll end up going four times!)

 

The event for many years has included some of my favorite moments of any hard-ticket park event such as:

 

- Boo To You Parade - There aren't many parades I stop and watch anymore, but I will always ALWAYS watch Boo To You! It's fantastic!

 

- HalloWishes - "Fireworks in the Round" is what this show is famous for, and there's a clip of it down below so be sure to watch!

 

- FREE CANDY!!! The "treat stops" are by far my favorite part of the event! How many candy can you collect throughout the night? Well, that's up to you!

 

- Haunted Mansion - The way they "dress up" both the Mansion and the cast members are fantastic! There are even some great PhotoPass photo opportunities and additional entertainment in front of the Mansion.

 

This year though, some new traditions have been introduced and for the first time they've added some new Not-So-Scary fun to the following attractions:

 

Deep Space Mountain - This is AWESOME!!! It's Space Mountain completely in the dark (and I mean REALLY REALLY DARK) with a rockin' sound track. This was so much fun!

 

Pirates of the Caribbean - They've added characters to interact with while you're in the queue and a live actor in the ride!

 

Mad Tea Party - The teacups got a little "madder" this year with a fun soundtrack and some awesome lighting!

 

And all of that doesn't even include the new food & merchandise offerings that are always amazing! (Got my MSSHP 2018 Magic Band!)

 

Ok, now on to some photos & videos....

Hello from Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! This is one of my favorite "Mickey's" and someday I hope they make one of these so I can take it home with me!

The opening night is always a bit crazy! We recommend doing on the mid-week nights for the best possible chance at getting in lots of rides, candy, and as many character meet & greets as you can!

If you happen to see the “Nerds & Taco” in the park please stop us and say hello! (We'll be going many times this season!)

One of my favorite views! Pumpkin Mickey with the Castle in the background!

I love the costumes you see at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary! These two are dressed up as the Contemporary Resort!

At select salons around the resort, adults can get a Halloween themed makeover and get all decked out for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!

She was our awesome candy girl from our visit in 2015! (And then later become one of our favorite Kilimanjaro Safari Guides!)

Awesome to see her back at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!

 

When we talked about "Fireworks in the Round" above, this is what we mean... it's fireworks all around you!

...and the cast members for the Halloween parties!

 

Dk2vpCSV4AAl8FK.jpg

The Hocus Pocus show is back again this year and it always ends with a bang!

 

Dk22eJnUUAEFJhE.jpg

Are these the Sanderson sisters from the show, or just fans that have dressed up? We saw some AMAZING costumes this year!

 

Main Street always looks amazing during the Halloween Parties!

Everyone gets so into the parties. This Photopass cast member just kept suggesting and taking all these amazing photos! We loved her!

While these Haunted Mansion ballroom dancers during Boo To You may be "not so scary" they sure are creepy!

I absolutely LOVE the lighting all around the park during this event. Even the entrance to Tomorrowland has a "Halloween" feel to it.

This event is so high on my bucket list. My next trip to Orlando, no matter how far into the future, has to be during the Halloween Party.

 

We will be back several more times before the season is over!

 

I hate you...

Wow!! I love the detail of the trip report, along with the great pictures!! So funny that you've been able to meet up randomly with people you haven't seen in years

 

Thanks for bringing events like these to attention... never would have known that this existed, and great to see new cool events.

Awesome stuff! This event has been on our bucket list for quite some time and whenever we go to Disney World with the kids (in probably 5 years) we will definitely go during this time of year so we can do this event. Hopefully my oldest son will be over his allergies and can eat candy by then but if not, more for me!

 

The idea of Deep Space Mountain sounds INSANE and hopefully they bring that to other parks.

 

Awesome pictures and costumes as usual.
