Archive for the ‘Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween’ Category

Orlando’s theme parks are full of Halloween entertainment. From the very scary at Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights to the kid’s fun at SeaWorld’s Halloween Spooktacular, there’s something for everyone.

At Disney’s Magic Kingdom, you’ll find Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party already in full swing. The annual, separate ticket event allows guests an opportunity to dress up in their costumes and trick-or-treat alongside favorite Disney Characters and Villains.

The Villians Mix and Mingle show has been restyled for this year and now features Dr. Facilier, the voodoo doctor from Disney’s “The Princess and the Frog” movie. The main musical number for this highly choreographed show is “Friends on the Other Side” from the same movie. The song offers up visual highlights like black-light effects and illuminations. As in the past, the show is followed by a fun meet-and-greet with the Disney Villains.

This year’s event at Magic Kingdom also offers a new trick-or-treat zone, Br’er Rabbit’s Laughin’ Place Candy Patch. The new candy patch area is located adjacent to Splash Mountain in Frontierland and replaces the former Alice & Mad Hatter’s Treat Trail that was formerly located in the old Mickey’s Toontown Fair.

Perfect for children of all ages, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party runs from 7 pm til midnight and guests of all ages are encouraged to dress up in their favorite Halloween costumes and collect candy while trick-or-treating around the Magic Kingdom theme park.

In addition to many favorite Disney attractions, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is filled with special entertainment such as Mickey’s “Boo-to-You” Halloween Parade featuring Disney Characters and the stars of the park’s Haunted Mansion attraction. The parade begins with a spooktacular ride by the Headless Horseman.

Throughout the park, you’ll find a wide variety of your favorite Disney characters and Disney Villains in special Halloween costumes. In addition, the park will offer special lighting, music and themed effects to transform some areas of the Magic Kingdom into happy haunted hallows.

There’s also a special Happy HalloWishes fireworks spectacular show featuring Disney Villains trick-or-treating in the sky.
