Halloween at DL

[Mommy2PrincessAbby]

We are going Oct 9-15 with the 10th being our first full day and 14th last full day. Any help would be wonderful.

This is of course just a guess... but I would probably do MM on Tuesday or Thursday if I were you, probably Thursday over Tuesday...

I think DL will open at 10 Tues, Wed & Thurs that week, and with the holiday on the 11th for lots of kids, people may take a longer weekend and still be there Tues the 12th? We're there the 6th-10th, because dd has the the 7th & 8th off, but not the 11th... but I think there is a whole bunch of kids that have the week of the 11th off for fall break??

Here are my thoughts Disney has been waiting until this Friday. To make it even more sppoktacle since it will be Friday the 13th (ha ha ha (evil laugh)

Haha, you've got a good point! That would be a great date to release Halloween info!

How on earth did I miss that tomorrow is Friday the 13th?! I think you make a very, very good point. It's what I would have done (or planned to be doing) ... had I realized there was a Friday the 13th coming up. I love coinciding things like that.

I like the way you think srauchbauer, and I LMAO when I read you last post! It would be appropiate if they released the info on Friday the 13th, especially with the info that they would be releasing would be Halloween related. So lets all do the Halloween Infomation Boogie, and hope that it works this time!

Thanks. My girls are on fall break that week so I'm sure there will be lots of people. Didn't even think about the holiday so great info, we will probably do MM on Thursday and breakfast on Sunday our first full day in the park. Thanks again.

So I was wondering about costumes again.... do you think there are more folks dressed as Disney characters or non-Disney characters? Is it frowned upon to be not in a Disney costume? After all you are in Disneyland... . Or does everyone welcome the non-Disney costumes... I mean really how many Mickey Mouse costumes will there be? After seeing a 100 or so you will prolly be like bored? Hehe...

So help me decide my costume! Should it be:
1. me as Lilo and baby as Stitch?
2. Mrs. Incredible with just an Incredible shirt and a wig and Baby Jack Jack costume for DS?
3 Fionna costume for me and a Baby Shrek costume for DS....

LOL.. I know I am crazy!

I personally don't think that it matters if you dress up in one of the Disney characters or not. My costume is a Canucks jersey, hat and earrings and am going as a Canucks hockey Fan, and for the second MHP I'm going to I've got a Hockey night in Canada jersey that I'll match with the Canucks earrings and go as a Canadian Hockey Fan. I intend to poke some good natured fun at the country I live in, and have some fun with it. The way I view it, you can dress up as much or as little as you want. Just have fun and be comfortable.

 

[tinksdreamwishes]

my DH says I would be a traitor if we didnt dress up as a Disney character. LOL. He said I would be stabbing Mickey in the heart.....

I tried to convince my boys to be something Disney related, but they are 4.5 this year and they are not having it They insist on Batman and Robin (last year they were Mr Potato Heads, the year before Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum). I was disappointed but then realized there will probably be tons of Buzz and Woodys running around but not as many Batman and Robins

How does the trick or treating work? Do they give you a ticket that you turn in at each station or how do they keep track if you've been there before? Or do they care?

They don't care!

MNSSHP details were just release including parade times, etc. so I see Halloween Info in our future....

When we were there in 2008, they didn't care, you just lined up and got candy at whatever station. I think we hit a few more than once just since we walked by them again and there was no line.

From what I read, speculation is this year they will use wristbands, but I don't think (at least I am hoping not) there will be stamp/punch cards.

Thanks! One more question- a couple people have mentioned party tickets selling out and that has me worried. We are planning on going on Oct 15th but need to wait to make sure my mom's time off was approved so she can come with us. Apparently her work has one more week before they have to get back to her with an answer yay or nay. So will we be okay waiting one more week to buy the tickets? Or should we buy our 4 now and hope they aren't sold out once she finds out if she is off? Decisions, decisions!

here's my dah question what is MNSSP

 

[DisneyStitch626]

MNSSHP = Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. It's WDW's verison of it.

I don't think another week will matter... I suppose that a personal decision, but I don't it will be an issue at we aren't into September yet.
