Happy Halloween! First one in the park. In costume!


That’s phenomenal! Did you make that yourself?

Yup :). Last minute this afternoon when I decided I should probably actually carve the pumpkin we bought 😂

Hand drew the design with a felt tip pen (didn't feel like printing out a stencil; too many extra steps; easier to just doodle right on the pumpkin) based on an image I found online and then carved it out. I was going to do a shadow cast of Zero on the back, but the way my porch is designed those don't work so well. So didn't bother wasting my time 🤣

Thank you! Largely, yes. The Wonka bar also contains a chocolate bar and a homemade, screen-accurate Golden Ticket. I used to bring several of them when I’d go out and hand out a few. This year I only had one left and hadn’t had the foresight to make any more. Next time I will, though :-).

ETA: I thought this post was directed at me but I see that it may have been directed at Kender instead :-).

I was asking about the pumpkin but I would have never guessed you assembled the Wonka costume. That’s fantastic.

I have always wondered how Disney felt about folks coming dressed up in other company’s IP.

Oddly enough, I spoke with a security CM I know yesterday about park costumes. Essentially, he said that as long as they’re not particularly revealing or don’t resemble actually Disney characters too closely, they’re OK with them.

On a related note, he told me that at least once a week he’ll correct a guest for not wearing a mask indoors and they’ll accuse him of being a racist or threaten him physically. They’re usually kicked out after that. People can be horrible sometimes. I often say that 90% of us are “swimming” in one direction and the remaining 10% are mad at everyone else for going “the wrong way.”

To be accurate, I had the vest custom made and I made the tie and Wonka bar. There’s actually a screen-accurate Golden Ticket inside. I usually have extras to hand out and people shriek when they open them and find that they’re among the chosen ;-).
