Halloween at DL

[McNic]

Hey, I am little late on the costume bit, but I am going as the Queen of Hearts and my sis is going as Alice. Cannot wait. I was searching through the old posts and photos and I am so excited...is it October yet?

 

[Eeee-va]

Also chiming in late, but I'll likely be Belle in her village dress. My mom made me the costume ages ago but I still fit and it's there. (Even though I'd LOVE to make a new and/or elaborate costume...since I'm not a local I don't want to just hang out unable to ride rides, and look super-weird in pictures. )

My mom is thinking about being Sally, though she hasn't actually seen Nightmare Before Christmas. I'm fixing to make her costume, so that will be kind of funny, that she made my costume and I hope to make hers!

[srauchbauer]

question time again:

How do I go about getting our Mickey Mouse Halloween party tickets with my Disney Visa so I can get the discount?

When I went through the Disney sight it didn't give me a discount/when I called Disney the CM said she had never heard of this discount.

Hun,

You need to call 714-781-4400 and use the Disney Visa.

DH bought me a a ticket for the party!!! He wants me to go and take the baby who is 2... well guess he is a toddler... still a baby to me hehe... so I was here reading all the 100+ pages... over the past few days and I am super excited! I loved all the pics and cant wait to go! I am still sorta confused on the whole party thing... is TOTP the same as MHP? Also the whole thing about coming in at 3-4 for preparty is slight confusing.... I can still come at 8 am if I have a regular ticket right? But I can not come in costume before 5pm... I am not sure if I will wear a costume or not. I want to ride rides... and my big pooh but in a costume might make it more difficult to get in and out of a ride! I can just vision the Orbitor ride hehe. but ...if I do dress up- I was thinking simple- like I would be Lilo and DS would be Stitch.... I found a red and white floral dress in my size online... and just do flip flops and some of those hawiian wrist and ankle and headband lays... and buy a black wig. or.... maybe I will go with the Incredibles... I already have a Incredible t-shirt....I could just paint on a black mask around the eyes and buy a wig. My DS2 could be Baby Jack Jack!

and now I get to plan on when I will arrive... and leave. I was spoiled earlier this month with a trip and stay at the Grand! I loved MM on both Sat and Sun! which... since its just me and DS2 going this time- that means he can only basically ride Fantasyland rides besdies HM, POTC.. etc but early MM entry would be really nice! But..... If I just stay across the street at say Best Western... I would save $100 a night and I was thinking of going for 3-4 nights... Like fly in Thurs eve... then PH... Fri, Sat, Sun... sleep in Mon then fly home Mon afternoon. so with the money i save ..... from staying across the street- I was really tempted to buy my FIRST AP! And might as well buy the PREMIUM and go back at Christmas time!!! So many decisions... I am just rambling LOL... well nice to meet everyone on this thread! Oh I forgot... my ticket is for the 31st! on Halloween day! Anyone else going on this day?

We booked our hotel...just need to buy the Halloween party tickets This is going to be great! I am not sure who we will dress up as yet, but it should be a great time.

Funatdisney - thank you for the happy birthday!! I was hoping I could work that birthday angle to coax the Halloween forces to give us some more info, but, alas, nothing came to us. Drat!

Oh yes! You've never visited the "Disney at Christmas" thread? Oh my goodness - you must scroll through it! It's very popular, and has been a favorite thread on this side of the DIS since last year. In fact, up until just the last couple of weeks, it was waaaaaaay ahead of the Halloween thread in number of views, but now the Halloween thread has surpassed it for the time being.

Even if you don't have time to read everything in the Disney at Christmas thread, such as all of our descriptions of DLR at Christmastime or the various questions and answers, do take some time to start at the beginning and look at all the photos! The photos are a huge part of the reason that thread has become so popular!! It's magical!

Here is the link:

Disney at Christmas

Thanks for the link. I will spend a few minutes a day reading this very exciting thread. We have a reservation at VGC for the first weekend of Dec. After reading the rumor of the Candlelight Procession moving over to DCA, I am glad we got this reservation. Now I will plan on attending. The last time I have attended was in 2005. So this will be a treat.

I have visited DLR at Christmas many times, but I have never stayed on property during this time. I am looking forward to it and plan on taking lots of pictures.

Hey, I am little late on the costume bit, but I am going as the Queen of Hearts and my sis is going as Alice. Cannot wait. I was searching through the old posts and photos and I am so excited...is it October yet?

My kids dressed as Alice in Wonderland last year: DD2 was Alice, DD8 was the Mad Hatter (in a dress), DD4 was the Queen of Hearts, and DS10mo was the White Rabbit. The adults were going to be cards but with school I didn't have time to pull it together.

DH bought me a a ticket for the party!!! He wants me to go and take the baby who is 2... well guess he is a toddler... still a baby to me hehe... so I was here reading all the 100+ pages... over the past few days and I am super excited!

Yes the TOTP is now called MHP...same thing but in DL not DCA.
You can arrive in costume at 4 pm for the Halloween party, but if you have a regular ticket you can arrive at park opening (just not in costume until after 4).
We were there Halloween weekend last year and it was surprising not crazy busy.
Have a great time with your little one!!!

Got my costume today!! I bought a backpack that is actually a ninja turtle shell and it came with the masks!! So i'll be a ninja turtle hahaha

Hey guys, I sorta need some help. I don't know if these questions have already been discussed and answered but I am planning a trip for the weekend of Sept. 17-19.

I had heard that the Halloween fireworks were only going to be shown on the days of the Trick-or-Treat party. Is that why no fireworks show up on the official calendar? Or is Disney still trying to put together all the times for Halloween Time at the Resort?

And from what I have read, it seems like WOC will still be shown on the weekends and holidays a la Fantasmic. Is that how I am understanding it to be?

Thanks!!!!

Right now DLR has not officially announce all the information on the Halloween Time Season. They put some of the info for MHP. But right now from what we heard from other DISers, so far HS is only going to be exclusive for guests who bought a ticket for Mickey's Halloween Party (MHP) on those nights. DL right now is still putting together all the times for the upcoming months. Right now they don't even have WoC showing after Labor Day. But that could change any day now and they will put WoC and the fireworks on the official website. We just have to wait and find out what DL is going to do during the Halloween Time.

Right now on the calender, WoC is running until Labor day and it doesn't show any run dates after that. Also on the calender they ares not running fireworks after Labor day, but F! is running on the weekends. This could all change in due time and have WoC and the fireworks running on the weekends.

 

[tinksdreamwishes]

I think Disney should hire some of us Disers to help make a calendar... I would do it for free! lets go volunteer!

 

[mvf-m11c]

Give it a bump and still no info yet again.

 

[DisneyStitch626]

Maybe there will be some info tomorrow!!! Start of a new business week! Here's to hoping!!!!!!
