HalloweenTime at DLR Superthread #4

[Spyral]

Last year we got most of our trick or treating done before the party started thanks to those pre parties. That way we could enjoy the rest of what the party had to offer.

That's a great idea! I think I will have to propose that to the family, assuming the pre-party party happens.

My mom finished Daisy Duck! I have to play with the bow a little, but I think the outfit came out great! She looks so funny with all the padding. She will also be wearing yellow tights and pink sparkly shoes. She has one of those duck bill things from DLR that we will bring along for photos.

Where are the pre-parties? And is there still an AP trail? Anyone know where it is?

We went last year for the first time, had a blast, but found out we missed a lot!

Apologies if this a silly question but can you please explain what you mean/did? Thanks!

Last year they had pre parties in ToonTown and the carnival area near Big Thinder Ranch.
They had trick or treating, meet and greet and games (at BTR). The trick or treat trails gave us enough candy to last a long time (no healthy treats though). You must have a party band on to get into the pre party.

I'm glad Toon Town pre-party is coming back this year. Fall starts tomorrow!! Also it's 3 days away from the first MHP!! That's not including today. I can't wait for the reports to come in. I plan on getting there as early as I can on the 16th. Since I have the day off that Friday I might get into costume as early as 2pm. I want to do either a linner or dessert there or both. I will buy as many Halloween goodies as I can. I plan on going to the Halloween store that opened up in walking distance from me on October 2nd. I will take pictures for everyone. I will also post photos of The candy I found at my last trip to Wal-Mart in early August today.

Oct 16 we have 25 of Us going to the party. Try planning that one!

I have 32. Five of which are between the ages of 16 and 26 months!

We are going to the party on October 5 and have not been to Disney or a MHP in quite awhile. We are going to surprise the kids and drive over on Saturday. We have a 2 day PH (Sunday and Tuesday) and will go to the party on Monday. We have been to two parties in the past and really have enjoyed them.

It´s not certain yet there will be a pre-party and in what kind of form. I'll advice you to wait with the happy dance until friday.....

We will be there too! It will be our first trip to DLR and MHP. I'll have my two young train engineers with me, hopefully they stay up so we can enjoy the fun! We are so excited! Can't wait to see everyone's reports and hope we all have a magical time!

My father was a steam locomotive engineer and I'm going to bring some of his pins to gift Casey's engineers with while we're there. I'm sure he would have approved if he was still around.

Cant say I am super excited about a show based on a 20 year old movie that is so popular I cant even track down a copy for the kids to watch before we go....

I rented it from iTunes and we watched it on the flight to Orlando last week. I think the Hocus Pocus show was one of the highlights of our trip. It was an amazing show and such great casting!

And us too on that day x

MHP for Wednesday October 7th now sold out

 

[justgrace]

I cant wait to get a report of the party on Friday!!! Please, whoever is going Friday, report back as soon as you are able. Us early-bird party attenders are very curious!

We'll be doing the party on Friday!! I'll try and get a report up as soon as possible!

OK this might sound dumb, but usually we are already in the parks on the same day we attend MHP and this year we're coming in on Monday just for the party. We should be able to get into the turnstiles at 3 pm that day. Do we still need to go procure Party wristbands somewhere?? If so, does anyone know where?

And do you veterans generally recommend this ToonTown preparty? We have never attended one.

Thanks!

Where are the pre-parties? And is there still an AP trail? Anyone know where it is?

Last year they had a special AP perk. I don't know if you want to call it a trail. You went in for a rice crispy treat & a bag and that was it. They had it in the front of the park where the great moment with Mr. Lincoln was.

You will get your wristband at the turnstiles when you enter DL. Immediately after you will be guided into lines for your party map and treat bag. The TT pre-party is fun, but not an absolute necessity. We like it for the M&Gs and the rides (Roger Rabbit!) and because we don't make it to TT very often any more. We skip the TOT lines because we know we'll be hitting the other trails later in the evening. If riding rides is more important to you, then I could see how that could take precedence over the pre-party.

Thank you! It's a relief to know that we won't have to stand in line to get in AND stand in line elsewhere to get a wristband. And perhaps we will check out the Pre-Party for the first time. Thanks again!
