Halloween at DL

[RegionsBeyond]

It was pointed out photos from previous years might be welcome here to aid folks who haven't been or are curious, and I always go to DL in October since Halloween is my favorite time of year, period, and DL lately has been quite stepping up the park offerings. Here are soem of my favorite shots from past two years of the park decor:

I still have the "edible" Hitchhiking Ghosts from this, 2 years later, heh....

That shall do for now, I have a few more to share in a bit, since there seems to be a file limitation in posting...hope you've enjoyed and comments more than welcome!

Ignore my post on your other thread ... yay!!! You're here. Awesome photos.

Gotta love more photos!! I cannot wait until I get the chance to take my own. Yeah, no way I can leave the SLR behind. No siree!

The photo's are killing me Making me remember I won't be there, and will be at WDW instead. No Halloween Screams for me.

For those who go - make sure you can see Sleeping Beauty Castle. You need to be able to see just to the left of the castle to see Jack Skellington. And you are going to absolutely love these fireworks. I predict they will become your new favorite.

Unfortunately no Halloween Screams for me either and I will be there. Sigh. Stupid perk of the MHP, lol. I'm just jealous! I love Remember Dreams Come True though, so I'll be a happy camper. Maybe I'll even watch them from the Castle this time instead of just ROA after Fantasmic.

No Sherry, You'll rue the day! You and anyone else who gets in the way of my hot weather.



Speaking of the Disney store, do you know how hard it was to not buy the light up Snow White wand from the costume. I got all giddy. They are cute. Why can't I still be, like, 6?

I know what you mean! I had time to waste the other day so I looked around the Disney Store and I was like, in awe of everything! i wanted to have the Ariel and Eric dolls, and then i saw some Princess costumes and i wanted to be a kid again sooo badly!!! The Tiana one is beautiful!!

Muffins, cupcakes, some hot drinks like maybe cider and lattes. There are pumpkin-shaped cookies. There may even be some pumpkin-ish ice cream at Gibson Girl. There is a pumpkin mousse sort of dessert that is sold at restaurants in New Orleans Square as well.

Ah! There is hope for me yet! I always take my beloved glow sticks. I think I may be requesting that wand for my birthday in a couple of weeks. I would have fun with it. I just know it. 24 be darned.

ya seriously and order the one from disney store cuz i think they are like 10.50 on there right? and they are like 16-17 dollars at DL, they are different wands but they both light up which to me is the whole point!

Jazz -

This may be before your time, but I'm a big fan of all those cheesy Rankin-Bass holiday specials that air every year ("Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," "Frosty the Snowman," "Little Drummer Boy," "Jack Frost," etc.). They even have Easter specials. There are a whole bunch of them. I loved all that stuff when I was growing up.

Anyway, the hot/cold thing reminded me of one Rankin-Bass holiday special in particular, called "A Year Without Santa Claus." In it, Mother Nature has two trouble-making sons - the Heat Miser and the Cold Miser (at least I think he's called Cold Miser). Heat Miser lives in a place that looks like an inferno, with flames burning here and there. Cold Miser lives in a frozen tundra of a place, with icicles everywhere. The two sons are constantly bickering and trying to inflict their own weather on the other one - like Heat Miser will make the temperatures soar in Cold Miser's town and Cold Miser will make things freeze in Heat Miser's town. It's really cute.

So I just envisioned you in the Heat Miser den, in the middle of flames, and me over in the Cold Miser frozen tundra with icicles hanging from my nose, and we are constantly zapping each other with weather!!!

I love a lot of the stuff at the Disney Store - I have to avoid looking at too much of it or I will end up buying stuff for 6-year-olds (even though I don't have any kids!).

I'd probably just go into the Disney Store and buy it. I think I will on my drive home from work before I leave if nobody gets it for me for my birthday (and I will tell everyone I want it)

I love how Disney brings out the kid in us.
