"Official" 2016 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Trick or Treat Fun

[FeralCatRogue]

To find one for mine I went to hobby lobby and looked thru the booklets for patterns. They have themed ones so you can look up medieval type dresses, I believe that would be the type of style she had.

I'm coming from Australia and have tickets for halloween night. What kind of weather can I expect then?

Does anyone have an opinion about if the first party will be as awful as last year? It's looking like that will be the only day that works for us. We were at the first party last year and I swore we would never do another Halloween party again but here we are....

@prettypatchesmsu were u at the Oct.1 Halloween party and had a tail for your Sully costume? If so I was you!

I dressed up as Tiger but just to get Castle pic., and dinner at CP.v I threw the costume away after that. I was dressed normal after that. Lol. I don't think it was you I saw though cause it was some one on a Disney bus we stayed at CSR. They had a little kid. Your costumes are cool though.

Probably hot & humid, 70s. Check post #1 under weather, it gives details & averages for Orlando weather in October.

Ha! Exactly! I'm guessing a whole lot better, how it should've been & how later parties were. Although,it never should have happened. Disney has been doing MNSSHP for years. IMO they do not want to give all those refunds this year, especially with the ticket price increase. Also, ADR guidelines for non-party guests have changed for this year --- that will move some out of the park better & on time. Only time will tell - reports after 1st party. Give it another go, if time & $ not an issue- and plan to have a GREAT time.

Australia has hot & humid weather comparable to Florida, of all the times we've attended MNSSHP on Halloween night I would say you should feel right at home.

Last year they had two peanut related candies. One was a totally generic, rectangular, flat little bar. It had peanuts in it. We didn't eat any. They looked like something my Grandparents would have had. Second was a baby Snickers.

I so thought that I took a picture of our candy "haul" last year, but I can't find it. I remember having:

Minitures of Snickers, Milky Way, Butterfingers, Reeses Cups, M and M's, and then Air Heads, Lemonheads, Sour Gummy tape stuff, Peeps, Werthers, Smartie like candy, and couple others I think. Mostly everything was name brand though.

I hear they have different mixes every year. Guess we'll see.

Just have your kids swap their candy at the end of the night. That's the way my husband and I did it.

Right, in 2013 I think the location to switch out candy was at Town Hall on Main Street, now I'm reading it's the Fire House - Which location is it? Will this be posted to the main thread with times?

FYI - my family went to Tokyo Disney Resort during the first week of April 2015, the weather there was comparable to ours here in Michigan at the exact time: humid, rainy, cold, warm. Just keep track of the weather before you leave. If you're concern is regarding your costume I strongly suggest sleeveless or short sleeves and include a light/medium sweater. Humidity feels cooler at night, you'll be surrounded by water mixed with a breeze - which will make it feel much cooler.
I totally recall little Princesses being very cold in the late hours and parents scrambling to find them something warm to wear. Some parents were prepared others clueless.

Yes, all pertinent info is in Post #1 with misc info in Post #2. We won't know until 1st party or if its reported online prior to 1st party. Info in 1st post is 2015 & 2016 info. As info for 2016 MNSSHP is announced/released/reported, the 1st post is updated. If it is old info, (2015) --- noted as such in parentheses. So things like characters, treat locations, Sorcerer card, merchandise locations, etc. are 2015 & noted as 2015 in Post #1.

I've been to the party several times and I don't recall ever getting a treat with nuts, so I don't think it's an issue. Honestly the candy is just so so, last year there was a nasty coffee flavored wether's hard candy. I skip the trick or treating, it's all sponsor candy, it's not like trick or treating in a neighborhood. There are so many other things to do and so little time.

We've been to a few as well and have gotten quite a bit of it. Also people here have been kind enough to post their candy haul pics which clearly demonstrates how much peanut products are given out. DH and I LOVE, LOVE LOVE peanuts, but since our son has an allergic reaction to it, it's best if we don't have it around at all.

Totally playing the newbie card here and really have no clue to what you're saying as I've looked in the "official MNSSHP 2014 & 2015" and find nothing noted for the candy swap times or location. What I do see regarding the candy are the following: What “tricks-or-treats” are offered? & Where can I “Trick-or-Treat in MK? that's it.

For those who attend the September Parties will you please post where & what time we can swap unwanted candy in your trip report. Thank you

Ha! You have over 90 posts & know PP on this thread, so NO newbie card for you. Info that was in 2014 & 2015 MNSSHP threads, are in this thread --- Special shout out in opening of 1st post. I have not seen any references to candy swap, just candy available for those with allergies, post #1.

What "tricks-or-treats" are offered?

• 2015:
• Typically, there are options for guests with food allergies, which are available upon request at City Hall on Main Street, U.S.A.

of course, any news will be noted in Post #1 as PP report back and/or Disney releases updates.

Busted in such a big way, I'm walking the walk -"Shame" ding, ding, ding "Shame"
Game of Thrones reference - Hahaha!

In 2013 we missed the chance to swap so I paid DS $ for his candy, could do it this year as well, but he prefers the treats!

Is there a chance Disney expects those with allergies to only go to the allergy-friendly trick-or-treat lines? You seem to be anticipating an opportunity to rifle through your bag of candy at the end of the night to swap out the "bad" candy for the "good" candy (meaning treats your kid can't eat for treats he can), but is that something Disney typically does? Just asking for a point of clarification that might help you and others.

 

[FoxC63]

Oh and I would be more than happy to trade with anyone especially with Florida residents! I'm sure out of town guests really don't want to haul this home - I know I don't but I totally hate taking away DS candy even though he really doesn't eat it. I think to him (ADHD/Autism) it's all about being included with the rest of the kids, the hunt and sheer satisfaction of looking at a pile!

Yes. Disney has provided a place to exchange candy. In 2013 it was located at Town Hall, we we're NOT there in 2014 nor 2015 but another poster said they exchanged their candy at the Fire Station. I'm just trying to find out where the new location for 2016 will be.

Per the Mouseforless: http://www.themouseforless.com/walt.../events/mickeys-not-so-scary-halloween-party/

“Disney gives out a pretty nice selection of candy at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and there is no shortage – collect as much as you want! If sugary candy is not your thing, there are healthy options available, too. You can exchange all your goodies, collected at the treat locations, for candy that fits your dietary needs, such as sugar-free candy, treats without nuts or healthy options. Simply bring your candy to City Hall, and they’ll exchange it. A few healthy treats can also be found at select candy stops; in the past raisins and Chiquita bananas were handed out.”

Yep. Newbie card REVOKED. All of my references just stated guests with food allergies go to City Hall. I did FACT check everything that was copied over to this thread & added on to the details. Old threads URLs referenced in Post 1 too. I use/subscribe to the Mouse for Less. Oh well, you have shattered my details & thirst to have everything on this thread. Will update post.
