Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is in full swing!

This past Tuesday, John Saccheri (Big Fat Panda) & I attended the Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party and we were delighted to spend the evening upping our Photo Pass game!l  I loved how they had so many options for pics this year! Our favorite was the Hat Box Ghost for sure! You get two pics with one of them being your head in the box! So much fun!  

We really didn’t go for the candy, but I have to save that Disney really brings it! If candy is your thing you’ll be happy campers for sure! We’re talking Snickers, Milky Way, Skittles, Gummies and more! If you have food allergies or just not a fan of sooooo much sugar, don’t worry, they have options! I know at least one of my kids would love the squeezable applesauce option! I didn’t have my 11 year old with me for this night so I forgot to check what they did for multiple food allergies. I recall from previous years we went to City Hall for some non edible “treats”. I’m sure they still do that! 

Let’s talk Attractions! I don’t think we saw a line longer than 10-15 min. Now, I’m sure the rain had something to do with it, but it was really nice. One of our favorite things ever is the addition of live “pirates” inside Pirates of The Caribbean attraction! They’re almost like hecklers lol! One was at the end of the queue and we saw another one on the infamous bridge. Panda offered him some candy but he shut that down lol! 

Now, most of y’all know I’m the KetoFitGal and don’t do sweets, etc., but boy did they look enticing! We stopped by Sleepy Hollow and picked up one of the coolest MNSSHP souvenirs ever..... The Headless Horseman glow clip that’s attached to a straw! The head glows y’all! Awesome! So while we’re there we see all these Halloween themed treats! But, I have to say the regular waffle with berries had my eye though! Ooh, don’t forget to stop by Starbucks at the Bakery. They have a few treats there too! Plus, it’s PUMPKIN SPICE TIME Y’all!! Win!

The night ended with the Boo To You parade and Hallow Wishes fireworks! If you’ve never seen these you have too! They are worth the price of admission! Speaking of admission, don’t forget to take advantage of your Annual Pass, Florida Reaident & DVC discounts. (Side note: Not given on same day tickets).

Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party

Halloween has transformed the Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World already! Last night I had the pleasure of meeting Diva Jenn and her husband Brady, along with my hubby at Disney. It was the opening night of Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party and it was amazing! 

After arriving at the Magic Kingdom entrance you’re already immersed with Disney’s Halloween decor! Giant Jack-O-Lantern Mickey's welcome you in which allows plenty of opportunity to grab some great family holiday photos. You’ll move into the entrance and when you walk in you’ll be greeted by the special event Cast Members and receive your special wristbands. (Great for scrapbooking or just hoarding lol). 

Under the Main Street Train Station you’ll find your Guide Maps to help you set off on the Sweetest Scavenger Hunt you’ll be on! (Another great souvenir as well.) Once you’ve reached Main Street you have to stop and soak it all in. The decorations are on every building, in every corner. Jam packed with family friendly Halloween fun! The family friendly part sets is aside from some of the other Central Florida events. 

I have to say that the Cast Members all seem to love working this event. Everyone was uber happy to hand out the candy and goodies despite some drizzle here and there! So don’t let the weather in Orlando deter you from coming to the spectacular party! You’ll still have plenty to do and I promise you’ll not leave empty handed! 

As if you need more reasons to come to this event, Disney puts on one of the best Halloween shows I’ve seen..,.. the infamous, widely beloved and out right awesome Hocus Pocus show! It’s right on the Castle stage and it’s not to be missed! Get your viewing spot early if you want to be right up there in the action! 

The show isn’t the only extra you'll see while at this event. They also have the HalloWishes fireworks and the Boo To You Parade. The parade has two showiness for those of you traveling with small children you’ll be pleased to be able to Trick-Or-Treat with them and still see the parade before heading back home or to your Resort. 

All in all this is one of the best times to see the Magic Kingdom. They don’t sell the park out like they do on a normal day, so the crowds are way less and you’ll be able to enjoy the rides they have open for the night. Not all are open, but the most popular ones are for the most part. 

Happy Halloween Ya'll!!!
