"Official" 2016 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Trick or Treat Fun

[OhioStateBuckeye]

I have an adult MNSSHP ticket for Tuesday 9/20 I'm not going to use and can't have refunded. I'm willing to connect to anyone's MDE account and reassign it to you if you can use it. For free - can anyone use it?

The tickets are supposed to be non-refundable, but that isn't really true. Just try calling, if a CM says they can't do it just call again. Usually within two calls you'll get a CM who will refund it. We did it before when one of our party members couldn't come. It doesn't hurt to try.

I wish I could say I have cute shoes, but I'll be wearing my comfy black or brown Merrell sandals.

That sounds perfect!

LOVE IT! What a beautiful skirt and awesome costume idea! Cannot comment on phone pictures, DH took some on his and it was 50/50. One day Memory Maker was available last year but nothing has been officially released by Disney at this point so if you're interested in that the info will be put in Post #1 and this would include Magic Shots. But if your not planning on purchasing MM, then do NOT hesitate to ask CM's, photographers or guests to take your picture! What's your party date with the mouse?

I spoke to someone at Disney in the Memory Maker dept, she said that a 1 day memory maker is available for $59 and it is purchased through the My Disney Experience app. I can't find anything on the app, however, I did find a thread on disboards that said you have to have a picture taken, then go to purchase the MM and it will give the option of the $170 multiple days or the 1 day. http://www.disboards.com/threads/question-about-1-day-memory-maker.3537818/#post-56311025

Anybody else do this before, see or hear of it, or find anything else? I have not looked at the Disney website for info yet. Hoping it is possible!

Yes, it is an everyday option now, as of late last year. It will show up in the app as soon as you start taking photos. Easy peasy.

Is Memory Maker worth it for just the party? Are there enough photographers? I always get it when we vacation but this time we are only going for the party. Thanks!!

Keep in mind it could be hard to make use POTC fast pass and be on time to the Pirates League if you arrive around 4. I'd suggest arriving by 3:30-3:45 so that you would be able to get in right away when they start letting party goers enter. It will take a little bit of time to get through security, the entry line, and get your party bracelet. Then you have to walk back to POTC and all the way through the long que (even if there isn't a minimal wait with FP which does occur sometimes). The ride is like 8-9 minutes long and there always seems to be a backup of a few boats at the end (waiting to get off at the end of the ride). I think 30 minutes will be cutting it close but if you get into MK right at 4 it is feasible (10 min to walk to ride and through que, 10 min to ride, and 10 min cushion). If you don't make it into the park until 4:10-4:15 due to a line to enter at 4 I can't see anyway you'd be able to ride POTC and not be late to pirates league.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking..
I ended up getting PoTC 3:20-4:20, Peter Pan 4:25-5:25 and 7DMT 5:25-6:25.
My goal would be to be entering Pirates ride by 4:10 or 4:15 at latest.
If that can't happen I'll just head to Pirates League and we'll do Pirates standby later.
I'm more worried about PL taking so long we miss Peter Pan! But you get a 15 min grace period right?

Decided to do Haunted Mansion during party to experience the special effects.
How long have people found the standby line during parties?

Hallowishes question here -

Our party day is Thursday the 6th. Our touring plan though will have us back at the Poly well in time to catch Hallowishes on the Tuesday prior. We have a theme park view room, so ideal for catching the show. Will watching it from afar before we actually attend the party put on damper on the first hand experience? If so I'll need to make sure the kiddos are distracted while the show is going on.

I don't think so at all. It made my kids more excited to see things up close!

Since I will only be attending MNSSHP and it will be just me, I plan to use my iPhone for pictures with characters. Will there be enough lighting to get pictures? Specifically, my costume is the castle and I'm hoping to get s picture of me in front of the castle when it is lit up. Here is my unfinished costume (I'm adding lights to the shirt).

That Skirt is awesome! Totally jealousy of it!

Lines will be longer for sure, we've waited at least 20-30 minutes, but the queue is so fun you won't notice!

Thanks!

Updated Post #1 - Can I purchase MM for MNSSHP.
Include Disney PP, 1D MM info. This info is on Disney PP website and updated as of March 25, 2016 too, so just added that info.

I think it's worth every penny. Here's a link to show you what you can look forward to during the party. http://capturingmagic.me/a-guide-to...gmagic.me/a-guide-to-disney-world-magic-shots

I think if you were to purchase just one photo it's about $12-$15 per shot but I'm not 100% sure on the cost, so you may want to check that out. Seeing your familiar with MM you know it doesn't take long to snap a photo so you're not investing in a ton of time capturing these photos. Have a great night!

It's usually not released until the first party....unless someone leaks it prior.....

 

[smitch425]

There may be several different versions since the showtimes are all over the place this year

In 2015 it was released one day before the first party Sept. 14th Map came out & Sept. 15th was the first party.

Isn't it weird this year?! Yikes! I know we won't be going back next year.

Anyone that has done M&G with Jack Sparrow- about what time should we line up for him? We are taking my niece and this is the one thing she really wants to do.

 

[FoxC63]

You would think he'd be there at 7pm sharp - but not all the time! He's fashionably late. KtP says the best to see him would be during the first parade or immediately after the second Boo-To-You Parade.
