HalloweenTime at DLR Superthread #4

[pepe3penelope]

Thanks for your response, sherry! All it says is the Halloween date and "Halloween in Downtown Disney"!!! Couldn't be any vaguer than that!

I saw the regular Mickey pumpkin buckets in Star Trader on Sunday

"Danny Elfman: Halloween at the Hollywood Bowl" will be at the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday, 10/31. Tickets are now on sale (presale) and general public tickets go on sale this Friday. So for those of us who could't get MHP tickets on the 31st, this sounds like a wonderful alternative!

The Parks Blog mentioned that the buckets would be sold starting in early October.

I'll be there until October 5th, so I'll keep my fingers crossed!

The Cheshire Cat is almost finished.

The Rapunzel braid will not be worn with it!


ETA: We cut the yellow eyes out of the hood in case she wants to wear it down. I doubt she will do so often, but her eyes need to be visible.

The Vampire Mickey buckets (according to WDW CM's last night) are currently held up in customs, and haven't been cleared. They are trying to get them (for both coasts) ASAP, but customs.

So...another fun day at the parks and some more Halloween notes:

Big thunder ranch does have the same cookie bake as previous years, despite the different description on the blog. It's still the sugar cookie/snicker doodle with mulling spices topped with pumpkin ice cream...and it's beyond delicious!

The ranch is fully decorated for fall but unfortunantly, the goats did not have scarves on! I'm not sure if that was just today or an all season thing but since I know a few of you were curious...no scarves today...

I'll be there until October 5th, so I'll keep my fingers crossed!

We should be there on 5th too

We will be there at MHP on the 29th as we also missed out on Halloween. I have to ask being so green to this site: what is a Premium Events coordinator?
Enjoy!!

When I called the regular dining phone line and asked about the mystical spirits and possibly acquiring tickets to a sold out event & party night the CM was like, there is one person who handles the "premium events" and can help you with that and transferred me to a lady name Brittney. Shes the only one that works in the office and didn't answer but I left her a voicemail and she returned my call later that day. If anyone wants the number I can try to find it on my phone.

Here is some good news. It's 5 Days until Fall and 43 Days until Halloween. I can't believe it!! I might be going a third time to MHP. I want to go on the 19th of October. I hope it dosen't sell out by the 2nd of October. I had to turn on my living room lights at 5:50pm last night. I think it's great that fall is just around the corner.

Don't forget to download your Halloween ring tones before your trips I already got mine all set!

I saw on a FB Parks buy and sell group I am in that they will have a Mickey's Halloween Party pin available on September 25th. I am guessing/hoping that it will be available starting Sept 25 and until Oct 31.

 

[ricardol]

With the new MSBB package I wonder if the will rope a new VIP area for the fireworks or how they are going to do it. So to the ppl that will report in a week from today for the First MHP please be on the lookout for that!

Halloween Screams is always our top priority for our family, so I want to be prepared.

 

[spragueito]

It looks like October 14th's party is now sold out.

 

[Kilala]

I hope my friend got her ticket for the 14th party. I will be going with my friends on the 14th

 

[iKristin]

Noooo!!! That's the date I was supposed to buy on Sunday but forgot!!!

 

[CassieF]

Ahhh! I'm in the phone right now to try to buy the ones for the 14th! Fingers crossed...why is hold time so long?!?

Update: I was able to buy over the phone, no problem!

@iKristin call now...I was able to buy them no problem! It adds $5 shipping but it's worth it!!! 714-781-4565

 

[Sherry E]

Looks like I'd better add the 14th's sellout info to page 1! Thank you for letting us know, spragueito! I'll be right back with Pumpkin Pandemonium and a couple of replies...

So...another fun day at the parks and some more Halloween notes:

I wonder if the scarves were irritating the goats in the heat.

Than you for reporting back about the dessert at the BBQ (and, really, for ALL of the reports on the different things you are discovering!). I was wondering if it was going to end up being the one with the pumpkin ice cream after all. So, the Parks Blog just didn't have the full scoop (no pun intended), I guess.

Here is some good news. It's 5 Days until Fall and 43 Days until Halloween. I can't believe it!! I might be going a third time to MHP. I want to go on the 19th of October.

Thank the heavens Fall begins next week! I have had it with Summer!

I had stopped following the weather for a day or two, and wasn't really keeping up on the rain forecast. So, a couple of days ago, I woke up and heard the sound of water outside my door. Since I didn't really know that rain was expected, to me the water sounded like someone had left a hose turned on and water was pouring out. Or it sounded like water was dripping off of a roof or something. I went to the window to look out and see if I could identify where the water was coming from. Lo and behold, it was rain! Not just a tiny drizzle of rain, but pretty significant rainfall. Unfortunately, it was still humid.

With the new MSBB package I wonder if the will rope a new VIP area for the fireworks or how they are going to do it. So to the ppl that will report in a week from today for the First MHP please be on the lookout for that!

Halloween Screams is always our top priority for our family, so I want to be prepared.

I am very curious to find out how everything works when the MSBB event begins next week. I do hope that people will report back here to this thread, to let us know, so I can once again link those reviews in the post I have set aside for reviews of MHP. I've been waiting for Happiest Haunts reviews and recaps, but no one is posting them here!

@iKristin call now...I was able to buy them no problem! It adds $5 shipping but it's worth it!!! 714-781-4565

OMG thank you I just called and bought the two I needed

Last week I posted the info (below, in the quote block) about the Jazz Kitchen's Haunted Gingerbread Workshop for D23 members, and I said that I assumed the date for the general public would be Saturday, October 24th, and it is! It takes place from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. Tickets go on sale on Monday, September 28th.

The Jazz Kitchen Haunted Gingerbread House Building Workshop for D23 members is taking place on Sunday, October 25th - https://d23.com/d23-event/haunted-gingerbread-house-building-workshop/.

I would have to imagine that the same event for non-D23 folks will take place on Saturday, October 24th, but Jazz Kitchen has not posted the date on its site yet. That's when it should be, though. The Holiday season event will have a few extra dates.


Speaking of which, for those who want to enjoy another family-friendly/non-scary Halloween event that is not far from Disneyland, try the Anaheim Halloween Parade and Fall Festival, on Saturday, October 24th - http://anaheimhalloweenparade.org/. Some of Disneyland's horses usually participate in the Parade.

"Halloween Hats You’ll Go Batty Over at Disney Parks" -- Disney Parks Blog; posted on September 17th, 2015 by Michelle Harker, Manager, Merchandise Marketing & Communications, Disneyland Resort - http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/09/halloween-hats-youll-go-batty-over-at-disney-parks/.



Oreo HAS come up with a new flavor after its most recent Brownie Batter flavor. But... it's not a new Fall flavor or Holiday flavor, at least not in my eyes. It is... Toasted Coconut!?! I'll skip that one. Not a coconut fan. http://www.theimpulsivebuy.com/word...limited-edition-toasted-coconut-oreo-cookies/.

Some straggler pumpkin spice and caramel apple things - http://www.theimpulsivebuy.com/wordpress/2015/09/17/spotted-on-shelves-9172015/.

Just a little update on some of the seasonal offerings...

Poison apple souviner mugs are sold out resort wide (in 3 days...) and they are unsure if they will be getting them back in stock.


Mannnn no way can those be sold out for good already
