HalloweenTime at DLR Info and Photo Superthread #3

[Susiesark]

I can't recall the price of the lanterns, but they couldn't have been too expensive, even with the little light thing.

The price for the popcorn bucket sounds about right. I know that I was in one store and saw that they were selling both the buckets and the lanterns - and that was a situation in which you could buy the bucket and get the voucher for the popcorn (since they were not serving popcorn in the shop). So you could compare the size of the lantern with the bucket, almost side by side.

Which store did you see it in? If I buy it in the store, with a popcorn voucher, can I get the passholder discount?

Just a heads up, I heard that this is the last year for the Mickey Ghost pumpkin (from Mouseplanet) So, if you need one, get one.

Hello everyone!

Not sure if this has been posted or not I just read about it on another site:

There’s something new this Halloween Time at Disneyland park, and it’s happening over at the Big Thunder Ranch Jamboree in Frontierland. That’s where you’ll find a magical Halloween Carnival filled with fun for the whole family, with favorite Disney characters in Halloween costumes, special Halloween entertainment, amazing pumpkin carvers, activities, holiday merchandise, yummy treats and even the Disney Villains!

You can make your own Halloween mask at the craft station, and then join Mickey Mouse and his pals in a “Mask-Parade.” Try your hand at carnival games, like tossing rings on a witch’s hat or spinning the Crystal Ball Fortune Wheel to seek your own happy Halloween fortune. Everyone’s favorite Frontierland musical group joins the fun, too, as Billy Hill and the “Haunted” Hillbillies take the stage six times a day for a round of appropriately spooky tunes, all done in their inimitable bluegrass style.

The highlight of the Halloween Carnival is sure to be the Magic Cauldron Sideshow. Dare to venture into this tented area, and you may be asked to help cast a magic spell, conjuring a Disney Villain from his or her realm to meet your group before returning to worlds beyond. Disney Villains fans will want to visit more than once, since you never know which Disney Villain might be summoned each time. Sounds like a real “scream!”

The Halloween Carnival at Big Thunder Ranch Jamboree opens September 14 and continues most days through October 31. Please check the park Times Guide for daily operating schedules.

sounds awesome!

Susiesark -

Let's see...if I recall correctly, I think it was the Showcase store on Main Street (at Town Square) where I saw the buckets, the lanterns and the little sign that mentioned getting the voucher for the popcorn at one of the carts (with purchase of the bucket). I was stalking that store quite a bit, waiting for them to put out a new supply of the green & black twinkly Halloween Time tote bags, and while I was stalking I noticed other things!

Unless there is any restriction on using your AP discount for the popcorn bucket, you should be able to use the discount in the Showcase store (assuming they are still selling them this year) to get one. They take the discount for everything else in that shop.

Thank you for the heads up! That's good information to know for anyone who wants one of those buckets.


I'm mikey -

Wonderful pictures! You pulled out some extra good ones for the Miscellaneous theme!

I wonder if anyone has photos of the Halloween display along the tram path? That is something that I bet a lot of people don't get to see because not everyone takes the tram. It really should be in one of the parks.

Thank you for the photos of the bucket/lantern! They perfectly demonstrated the size difference and showed more detail about the lantern!

Thank you! The Carnival sounds exciting! I am hoping there are still just as many carved pumpkins as the season rolls along.

Hi guys,
My friend and I are coming to dl for the first ime in 3 weeks!! We wanted this t shirt. Can anyone tell me if they are selling it in the parks? It is a gray v neck, women's t shirt. The wording is in foil and the o's in the word boo are mickey heads. Is there any way to order something from the park and pick it up when we get there. They are sold out online. Thank you for your help. I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place.

Now that the Halloween season is here... Does anyone now if Carsland and CA have been themed for Halloween?

 

[laura&fam]

Does anyone have a Mickey lantern from a year or 2 ago? How do they hold up? If I buy something and it breaks it will be years before my kids forget and stop asking if we can buy a new one. Seriously they are still asking about the pirate gun that broke within a month from 3 years ago!

 

[JadeDarkstar]

ok i have my disney visa now so i should get 10% off some things right
so if i know there are four items the popcorn bucket, a halloween bag, the latern, and my hubbys Melifcent glass if its there that we saw on disney shopping.com that jsut came out. Then maybe we can egt it all in one store.
World of disney?

Or what store was it last year that had both the popcorn bucket (with voucher for popcorn) and the latern in it?

 

[JadeDarkstar]

Yes, you can and they are indeed ceramic. I got a Mickey cup at Storyteller's Cafe last year and a Donal cup at the bakery on Main Street.

Halloween roundup at Big Thunder Ranch...

Carved Pumpkins, (Merida)

Spin the Wheel

Toss a rope ring over a Witch Hat

Color a Mask (Or a COW picture?)

Conjure a Villan Tent.

They would let about 30 guests in at a time, select one to wave a wand, and a Villan (Cruella, Cpt'n Hook, Jafar, etc.)
would appear in a puff of "smoke". You would then line up for a meet and greet.

Note: It was over 100 degrees by noon today at Disneyland.

Disneyland 1951 -

Thank you sooooo much for posting these new photos! To be honest, any photos I've seen on other sites on the Web have basically just been the same ol' stuff we all recognize from every year and not much of the new stuff. I've only seen a couple of good Carnival shots.

Can you tell me if it looks like any of the actual Round-Up part of the Carnival has been scaled back? If you're familiar with the Halloween Round-Up from previous years, you'll remember there was a designated area for many carved pumpkins (and I'm sure there were not many out yesterday) and the Scare-Dy-Crow shack, as well as all kinds of 'Autumn harvest' decorations. Is all of that still there, or has it been cut down to make way for this Carnival? I see the Merida pumpkin above, but is the area still as big?

It sounds like California Adventure is pretty much lacking in Halloween decor again too - with the exception of the Frankenweenie stuff. Did you see any traces of Halloween decor in DCA - any random lamppost garland or orange bunting on facades? Anything at all?

So is there more than one "show" going on at a time in that tent? Trying to figure out how many different villains are appearing daily - thanks

 

[JadeDarkstar]

If any one see's Melifcent please tell me

Maleficent usually is only at the Halloweeen party. So you will have to wait a bit. I am waiting for the same news.

She wasnt last year, only in 2010. I dont know about years past, but it was a fairly big deal back then I recall. Last year, the Tremaines only appeared during the day, where in 2010 they were only at the party, so I dont think anything is written in stone.

I really hope that this is not the only way to meet the villains.

I know she was not last year but she was in 2010 I believe she was in previous years as well. I really hope that they bring her back out.
