Halloween half term help!

So after another thread on here I'm worried about our next trip huge queues manic people etc.
Help me plan park days please.
What will the park hours be ?
Would you do emh or go into the parks in the afternoon and stay as late as poss ?
Help we have a long stay but don't want my newbie friend to think she spent all day In a queue.
How would you work your days ?

If you have Fantasy or Dream AP's I would get there for EMH's on at least some of your days and for the Studios be there for 9.15 at the latest. Use FP as much as possible. It's harder to take a break in the afternnon when ofsite, but I still think it's worth it. Even if you just spend a few hours in DLH or on terrace at SL with a coffee. Parks closed at 10.00 when we were there in 2012, but be aware some rides closed early.
With a week you could probably do some late nights and some early mornings. It should be fine with a good plan!

We did a week in july last year including Bastille weekend, so was prepared for mega busy, which it was, but we managed a day in paris, a day at the Big Cat Reserve and a couple of afternoons on the terrace of L'Agape in Val d'Europe and did as much as we wanted to do in the parks. Weekend was the worse OH and I queued for2 and a half hours for ToT and for the first time ever we queued from outside the castle at POTC. Liam and I did Fantasyland rides later in the evening, when we came home we realised we hadn't ridden Peter Pan, not sure how we missed that one, other than that we were good and if i could afford it i'd do it again.

Its a different experience going peak time, but if you're prepared, you'll enjoy it as much as the walk on trips.
