"Official" 2019 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Frightfully Festive Celebration

[MemoryMakers]

I had brought 4 empty full sized suitcases that I filled with candy, two carryons that got candy and the two backpacks that were full of candy.

I’ll still do T or T but not for two hours. Since I’m driving this time, all of the candy can fit in my trunk easily.

I’m very curious...what do you do with all the candy?

I want to see a pic of all the yummy candy!!!

Does anyone know if all 3 hitchhiking ghost popcorn buckets/sippers are still available? We don't go to the party until the 29th....

 

[sanibellife]

Yes! So curious what people do with all the candy? I understand if you have little ones that want to trick or treat and get some candy but what in the world do you do with pounds and pounds of candy

Thanks! I guess I am contemplating either using valet parking or Lyft. It might make more sense to just walk from/to the Contemporary and use Lyft to get back to Pop.

We usually grab an Uber/Lyft from the main area at Magic Kingdom. We are going to be at MNSSHP on 10/18. Is there a reason it would be better to get Uber/Lyft from Contemp instead of MK?

How early have folks been able to check into the dessert party? I remember last year waiting in a line for what felt like forever for them to open check in. We wanted to get there early to get a good table along the railing for watching the fireworks.

It’s only walking to CR vs taking the Ferry to the TTC - so personal preference more than anything. Often at night they try to load those Ferry’s full before departing - so if you’re the first one on you may not enjoy waiting for it to fill then leave, when you could have just walked over to CR. Or it may zip you right over - always hard to know what you’ll encounter.

Thanks - I'm not an expert by any means with getting around WDW. And now that I think about it - I think we took the ferry to and from WL last year instead of Lyft for MNSSHP (last year we stayed in 3 different resorts and visited all of the parks plus two cruises , so my memory is fuzzy). We'll be staying at the Poly this year - so it sounds like walking to CR might be our best bet for not standing around waiting. I hate the huge monorail lines at the end of the night, so we try to avoid that route. Thanks again!

If you’re staying at Poly, I would just take the Resort Monorail or the MK/GF/Poly resort boat. A third alternative would be the take the big Ferry to the TTC and walk over to Poly (Poly is right next to the TTC).

After walking around MK, I can't handle standing in those huge lines at the monorail. Last year, we used Uber/Lyft almost exclusively to minimize extra walking, but I guess not for MK. I forgot MK was different. Thank you so much for your help!

I thought that I had read that Uber/Lyft drops you off at the TTC? If they drop you off at the MK, we will go that route.

What have we done with all our candy?

Our oldest ds got married, and our visiting families ate it.

Going forward, I don't know what we'll do. We were talking about tonight and only getting the bag with white Twix and an applesauce.

 

[OhioStateBuckeye]

Let's get this party started!!!


In line for Jack and Sally at 3:30, they came out shortly after 4:30, done by 5.

That hour long sit on the air conditioning was lovely.

Eating at Columbia harbor now.

Dressed in a Top Gun/ Captain marvel mashup. I am Goose.

I don’t know if anyone has posted this yet, but all of this week’s parties are sold out (Oct 8, 10, 11), as is Halloween.

So far, tonight's party doesn't seem very busy. We're getting a lot done.

Agreed! We also went on Sunday and had a great time. I thought maybe it wouldn't be as crowded as it could have been with the party passes/if it was nice weather. I wonder if many locals stayed home..?

We were able to get good spots for both the parade and fireworks with minimal waiting and hassle. Grabbed a spot behind a double wide stroller in Frontierland at 8:35pm, went on Pirates as a walk on immediately when the parade was over (it said 25 minutes but we just walked through with the crowd) and then wandered into the main hub where we had a great view about 15 minutes before the show. When the downpour started I was SO happy we had decided to see the first parade! We did miss out on seeing the hocus pocus show AGAIN though... I still have yet to see it! I'll miss Hallowishes forever now... the new show is fun and enjoyable but not a must see for me. Not sure why - I thought there were plenty of fireworks. All I can think of is I'm a little sick of Nightmare Before Everything We Can Slap It On though I did really enjoy the trick or treat callback and the masquerade portions.

I really liked the lotso burger and enjoyed the constance cake. Those were sadly the only themed foods I managed as we just weren't that hungry after four days of theme park food.

I thought the inside of space mountain would actually be darker so it was really neat seeing all the tracks in there from the light pollution. I will never put my hands up again now that I know how close you are!

Uber/Lyft/Taxi don’t pick up or drop off at the MK, only the TTC.... or many will use CR.

Tot at Monster's Inc opened just after 6:30pm

 

[AlohaNow]

Our 'costumes' are being packed! If anyone sees Max & Mom at the Friday 10/11 party, please say hi!

 

[lovethattink]

Carousel of Progress doesn't have applesauce tonight. It's candy.

And the bypass Tot has full size snickers in the bag instead of peanut butter snickers.

 

[lovethattink]

Cosmic Rays tot has applesauce. Pumpkin spice
