Just HOW busy on Halloween?

I did the search to learn more about MNSSHP and now I'm worried. Some posters said Halloween was so crowded it wasn't fun at all. We probably won't trick-or-treat but we'd like to do some rides and see the parade for sure. I'm hearing that Toon Town is impossible so I'd be okay skipping that night and doing it another day but I've read that there's some place where there's music and the children can dance with characters and I think I'd like to do that. We're checking in on the 30th and I think we'll be too tired to do it that night so that only leaves Halloween. So now I'm torn. Usually our vacation starts in November (NJ Week) so this may be the only time we're there for Halloween My son is too young to care about missing trick or treating but will enjoy being dressed up and seeing the characters in costume. We'll be one of the annoying people with a stroller so we don't care about that. Seriously, is it so bad we should skip it? We'll probably leave after the first parade and leave the rest of the adults there until closing. Will THEY have a good time? Will they get on rides later in the night? (Can you tell that I'm stressing because I'm the planner for a large group? And three of them have never been to WDW so I want it to be GREAT for them!)

Friends of mine went last year and had a great time. They said it was busy, but they were still able to do all they wanted. We went on the 11th and there were quite a few people that night also. Don't stress, just go and have fun.
