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

[ConnecticutFlea]

I have a question. My annual pass is linked to my magic band in MDE. If I link my MNSSHP ticket to a fictitious person in MDE and make 3 additional fast passes, then I'm assuming my magic band won't work for those FP and I'll need to use the MNSSHP ticket when I get to the ride, right? If I book on line and have a paper ticket, do I need to use that? If I'm already in the park on my annual pass ticket, do I need to go back through the main gate using my MNSSHP ticket in order to use that ticket for FP? I know I can get the party bracelets in the park if I'm already there, but I'm wondering if the FP will work if there is no record of the MNSSHP ticket holder passing through the entrance gate.

Hmmm... I would like to know this answer also. A fictitious person in MDE. I already purcahsed MNSSHP tickets but maybe I can transfer them to this new fictitious person and get 3 additional FP+

OK, so my FP+ window will open soon (on the 17th) and I need to decide which night we want to do MNSSHP so I can plan out our FP's for the other days / parks. I will do an advance purchase thru DVC for member pricing but I would sort of like to know the weather in advance so I don't want to commit to a night this far out however I sort of have to with the whole FP+ thing. I'm not ready to purchase the tix just yet - but I'll do it when we get closer. There will be 2 parties while we are there - Sunday, 9/18 and Tues., 9/20. Do you think the odds are higher that the weekend will sell out over the Tues. night? I'd obviously prefer to go on a night that's not sold out if possible but do we think the odds are that by the day of they'll both sell out anyway so it won't really matter which night we go? The Tues. night will be our last night....

Dumb question - this will be our first time going to a party. Do they offer FP+ during the parties?

Not during the party, but your ticket will get you in at 4, and you can do fp+ 3:30-4:30, 4:30-5:30, and 5:30-6:30.

Not a dumb question but unfortunately they do not offer it during parties. Mostly the lines are pretty short. The FP+ ends with the 5:30-6:30 hour

I did mine for September 8th party. My last fp is 5:30-6:30.

Thanks!

Regarding MNSSHP entry --- if already in park there are locations in park to scan MB, Paper ticket or Green Plastic RFID Card. No need to go back to park entrance. Locations posted earlier in thread. Once locations announced/noted for this year, will update Post #1 with locations. In past locations in Adventureland, FL, Tomorrow land.

Unfortunately, no one can predict when party will sell out. You can check Post #1 for dates parties sold out last year. Most will advise - me included, as noted in posts throughout this thread, if you want to go on certain night - go ahead & purchase. Weather never completely accurate, gives forecast 10D out & still sometimes changes daily. We always carry ponchos in our bag, but sometimes if rain, more hassle than worth; so depends on amount of rain & what we're doing if use them. No guarantee waiting until 10D prior to party & times/rides you want may no longer be available for FP+, then stressing or checking daily for something you could have done 60D prior -- and party could have sold out. Tuesday crowds should be lower than Sunday, but who knows. F&W, free dining, & MNSSHP @ time going so really don't know about crowds - look @ crowd predictions, but those only based on ride wait times, not party activities; ticket prices increased this year, who knows - more PP might decide to go on those nights using AP/DVC discount tickets.

Trying to decide what costume I want to wear for our MNNSHP trip this year. Was planning on doing Chief Bogo and Clawhauser from Zootopia, but a little concerned they might frown upon adults in 'police' type costumes. What do you think?

Obviously they wouldn't look like real police uniforms (with horns and cheetah print) and was planing on doing things like putting 'Zootopia' anywhere it said police, but front far away I guess it would still look real-ish. I've done the party a few times now, but not since they changed the costume rules last year.

52 Days Until the 1st MNSSHP!

It's been a while - so just checking in. How are the costumes going? Every one still excited about MNSSHP? DS has two more months of summer vacation - is time going slow?

This our first time attending a party. Time is creeping by! We are planning to go as the incredibles but since the rule of no masks we were thinking face painting the black masks on us. What are your all thoughts? Will it be too hot and melt making us look like "the crow"? Should we skip hiding our identities or go for it?

We are taking a Universal trip in October (went to Disney in the spring.) Dh and DD19 will be going to Halloween Horror Nights but it's not really my thing and it would be way way too scary for ds12. So we were just going to swim and maybe mini golf or something while DH and DD went to their event. Buuuuutttt.. this weekend I got the bright idea to see if ds would like to go to MNSSHP. We LOVE Disney and we've never been to MNSSHP. Of course he wants to go, so I booked the tickets for the 30th of October! Then today I decided it made more sense to stay at Disney for the night so we could just take a bus to our room after the party, and get a good nights sleep. DH and dd then don't have to leave HHN to pick us up either. So we've booked a night at Pop as well.
I am SO EXCITED. I'm really looking forward to the Universal trip as the whole family loves it there, but I am happy to be able to sneak in a little bit of Disney and experience something new as well.

The party we attended last year (late October) it was SOOO humid! The air was really heavy and it made for a sweaty night. More often than not, that is probably going to be the case that time of year, so I would probably choose not to paint your face -- I'm also not sure how face painting would be interpreted on the new costume rules, but I'd make my decision based on the heat alone!

Thank you I thought that might be the case And I definitely don't want to look back at pictures and see us looking like we are melting lol! I will definitely scrap that idea

Not sure if I can just throw this question here or if I should start a new thread, but- is the following schedule actually doable for MNSSHP?

5:30-6pm: head to Magic Kingdom for the party! (We're getting massages 3-4 and then grabbing a snack and changing into our costumes in our hotel before heading to the park)
6-7:30pm: Rides, photos, etc. Then start heading to
8pm: Hocus Pocus Villain Spectacular, then head straight to Frontierland
8:50pm: Frontierland viewing of BTY Parade, then head towards Casey's/Plaza
9:45pm: Celebrate the Magic, head to CRT
10:15pm HalloWishes near/in front of CRT, then head straight inside
10:40pm: Dinner at Cinderella's Royal Table

It seems a little tight but I'd like to try and do as much as we can I've never been at a Disney park for one of these events before!

I was looking and couldn't find the answer... When you buy tickets do they send you a hard ticket or is it linked to your magic band?

With a setting spray it can work but if its very hot and humid even that will need touch ups probably.

It links to your band and you have a choice of how you recieve the tickets beyond that.
