My parents did last year. From what they said I don't think it was any different to the other nights, except that people were feeling more spooky perhaps lol!
I'll be going on 31st this year for the first time. Never done MNSSHP before and so excited! I know it's going to be uber busy though and will have to get tickets fast I guess!
we did it on the 31st in 2006. Can't compare with any other times as tbh we weren't that taken with it and haven't booked it again. Granted all the nephews had a fab time and we put this down to the fact that all our luggage was over the limit! All that candy weighs the same as a baby!
People made an effort with their costumes, the parade was good but I prefer the normal fireworks and the candy was like pick n mix type of stuff that leaves me cold. We did enjoy it but wouldn't go again. Def would recommend going if you're into halloween.
We went last year on the 31st and had an excellent time - it was the first time we've done MNSSHP so can't compare it to other nights but lots of rides were pretty much walk ons, we got a good spot for the fireworks and parades and the atmosphere was amazing.
Only thing we noticed was the lines for the sweets were crazy...but as 6 adults we weren't that bothered about them so didn't waste any time queueing up.
