Haunted 5k Run

I signed up for the 5k this fall, and received a link for tickets. Has anyone ever booked a hotel and tickets through this and is it cheaper?

I bought tickets last year when I did the Tower of Terror run, and it was significantly cheaper. I think we paid around $190 for a 3-day park hopper.

Hope that helps.

I didn't try to get tickets because we have APs, but I did try to get a room discount. The discount was only for the weekend and for standard view only so I just kept my AAA discount.

Tickets can be cheaper. They do, however, have expiration dates (very close to the run time, not far in the future) and they canNOT be upgraded at all once you get them.

I ran the TOT last year and booked the room through rundisney. I already had an AP, but the way rundisney does rooms is that they are packages. In our case, the tickets were minigolf tickets, so they are flexible, but it's done with package rules (full payment 45 days out, etc).

Yes! We did last year and it was much cheaper. Stayed at the Poly, I think our discount was close to 40% off the room type we chose. The tickets were discounted too but you couldn't get more than a 7 day hopper. The only down side is you have to go through the sports reservations, which have more limited hours. Also, we couldn't book fast passes until we checked into the hotel because our tickets were more like vouchers and couldn't be added to our account. I don't know if this is still the case or not.
