Ohhh that is so cool! I have not ordered yet (and need to get on it). Hope I get one of the new designs.

Our tickets to both parties are the old standard - I got a rock!!! Ugh!!!

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....

Based on your past experience, what would you change or omit from your MNSSHP plans? I think that alone would help you solve your dilemma. You know what worked and didn't work.

Just curious, did you do a trip report?

The new tickets are... interesting?

I feel like these could have been great, but they're really kind of ugly. Too much green.

Actually those would be an upgrade to the ones I received!
BUT... I feel like Agnes from Despicable Me when she sees the unicorn - We're going to Disney!!!

Sigh ... time to make the donuts, costumes I mean! Yeah, costumes!

I did not do a trip report. I'm not really sure what I would change but it was so crowded you could barely walk, we waited for 2 hours to hold our parade spot, all of the exclusive cupcakes were sold out super early(really nbd to me but id told my 3 year old she could have one and she never gets treats like that so she was so disappointed-couldn't find any cupcake anywhere), we met 0 characters because the lines were outrageous(I know the rare ones like dwarves and jack and Sally are crazy anyway but every line was extreme). I found out after that they didn't clear people out like they should have and it was also full of media people on top of being sold out. It was just way too crowded to even be enjoyable.

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.

I think we're going to try to make the 8th work! I'm too worried still from last year and reading that it's usually the media night. I hope we have a better experience this time! I love the Halloween party.

Ok, I was kind of bummed I hadn't gotten new tickets for our MNSSHP tickets...until I saw these haha! The hitchhiking ghosts one would be cool. But I would have thought they would just do new characters, more variety etc. not sure I like the rides on them. Kind of weird.

Not really much OP could have changed. Numerous reports and complaints, and $ being refunded. Disney dropped the ball literally, CMs did not clear non-party people out of the park nor check for bands. So people basically enjoying the party for free.

Given their new rules for costuming, do you think that a Harley Quinn costume (new Suicide Squad movie) or a Claire Dearing costume (Jurassic World) would be safe? I have 4 costumes I could use, but they seem to be the closest that would be considered guideline-appropriate. I just figured I would get other opinions before I make a decision on the guest list!

Hoping to get tickets for the Sept 8th party. I am new to the MNSSHP you guys seem like the experts. This is the only day that will work during our trip. How far in advance should I buy my tickets and what should we expect as far as crowds? We do have an ADR booked at 4:05 that I'm thinking of keeping - any advice would be greatly appreciated - TIA

I can't see Harley's costume begin against guidelines Seen people where a lot less on normal days.

What happened at the first party last year? We have never been to a party and are planning on going to the first one this year.

Thanks!

Is there a reason why September 23 is so much more than any other day in September!? I was planning on going that day but with the price so insanely high I'm choosing another date!

Ha! So true! It's suppose to be a family friendly event, if teen/adults want to dress less they should attend adult themed parties! Our last party was in 2013 and the CM's wouldn't let a group of teen girls in as they were dressed very inappropriately parts showing that most definitely should not be seen in public. Comments I heard were "You're parents let you out dressed like that" and "I think you forgot your costume" and these were from men! Granted they had small children, but still.

If I run into guests without a MNSSHP wristband I most certainly will make a BIG stink about it! These people need to leave as they are the ones taking up space during the shows, parade & fireworks! Totally uncool!

Yep, I'm sure I just made a whole lotta enemies but party crashers ruin it - for everyone!
