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

[FoxC63]

Looks like Halloween night has sold out! I guess people were waiting for reviews of this year's party before they bought.

Glad we bought ours!

Just curious about when it stared raining and when it finally stopped. Also did you see many people in costumes?

Started around 6:20 and ended just past 7pm. Many people in costume but I didn't feel out of place not being dressed festively (costumes didn't survive the monsoon on Tuesday)

The ZootopiaParty Patrol was super fun, short but fun. We grabbed a spot on main street right in front of the cm window, they came out from the little alley

Echoing what everyone else said. Rides were light, got a really great spot for the first parade after coming off of Splash, then got the best spot I've ever had for a nighttime show for CTM/Hallowishes. Without a doubt my new favorite fireworks show. WOW. Didn't do any characters this time around. Wish I could do a second party but leaving Sunday afternoon. Seriously considering coming down for a solo trip next year for it.

Me and the GF are going as classic Mickey & Minnie. It's her first MNSSHP!

I'm going as classic Minnie too! I just finished the ears/hat yesterday ^^

Sorry for the terrible picture >.<

How far in advance of the parade start time does this happen?

We had a great time. When we got off Pirates it was raining. When we finally decided to pull out the ponchos and go, it had just about stopped raining. Characters we saw - Mickey, Minnie, Daisy, Donald, and Goofy
Magic shots- Grave diggers (during the fireworks, which made for an awesome pic), Haunted Mansion dancers, and the headless horseman.
We rode some rides, watched the second parade, left with a very tired little boy, and 3 bags overflowing with candy. I also have never been complimented so much for an outfit, made me feel good. I had forgot my hairspray, but my hair stayed in buns for the entire night

Sweet! Love the costume! Glad you had a great time @ MNSSHP!

Has anyone else been to the dessert party?
Still debating if we cancel or not ....

a couple of random thoughts from last nights party
Photopass magic shot:
got the hitchhiking ghost right next to the rocking chairs by Hall oof Presidents
got the poison apple, Iago on shoulder and ghost dancers from the same person on Main Street
Never got a chance to go all the way back to the front to get the headless horseman or the dancing video one from Town Square, we left around 12:15am and there was a huge line for both spots

CM: were all very festive and happy to help, everyone seemed excited
Allergy free items:
My daughter has intolerances to many foods (eggs,milk,soy) and her girlfriend is vegan so we went to the spot at Liberty Square at 7:20pm, it was completely empty. They had time to look at all the items, my DD GF is very shy and only asked for gummy worms, after leaving the spot I told her she could have anything she wanted from the list, we went back to the spot about 15 minutes later, this time there was a small line, both girls asked for everything and the CM gave them about 3 or 4 of the candy stuff and 2 of the chocolate options. At the end of the night the girls went to the front to ask for more and the Cm only gave one of each and acted very stingy
The character tent by Dumbo is a great spot to trick or treat, was there at 7pm and each side has 3 stops, after one run my bag was full. You could do this and be done with trick or treating, all the other lines looked really early on, I didn't do anymore trick or treating so not sure how they were later

After the first parade ( we watched from Frontierland) we went to watch the Hocus Pocus show, got great spots close to the stage on the right hand side, the left hand side area was reserved for wheel chairs. Great show

Thread with numerous posts, but @ time I read thread only 2-3 PP had actually attended, 2 posters with negative reviews 1 with good reviews for parade viewing & 1 with okay review for fireworks. So I'm waiting on more reviews before I cancel. Thread was posted several pages back, it's under the TP&A forum, I Need HalloWishes Dessert Party reviews or something like that.

Are they only on Main St.?

 

[yulilin3]

Are they only on Main St.?

yes, only on Main Street. They have 2 sets. They come out of the little alley next to the Pandora store, they separate Nick and Judy, each taking a side of Main Street with dancers and invite kids to come conga line with them. Then they leave, it's like a 5 minute thing but it's very high energy and a great way to pass the time while waiting for the parade to reach Main Street.
Then they go to Town Square, where they stop again and do the same thing.

9/11 Report.

Entered at 3:45. Fastpassed Talking Mickey. So fun no Halloween costume. He did a magic trick. My DD5 and DS10 and DH went through the path to get trick or treat bags which was fun. Then went to pickup Sorcerer cards. At first a CM didn't hand out the Clawhauser card but was told by another CM to start doing it. Then they watched the Mickey's Faire show. While they did all this I went to get in line for Jack/Sally. I was there around 4. Jack/Sally came out at 5pm. We met them at 5:10. A very cool meet -heard the line was closed by 10pm. Definitely worth waiting for. People in line were not liking the fact that another group who was first in line and kept adding people (went from 5 or 6 to around 15). One lady who was complaining said that they were CMs. They ended up having to have one group picture and no individual meet.

We then had fastpasses for 7DMT and PP which we walked right on.

Got in line for 7Dwarves meet at 5:50. They came out at 6:22 and we met them at 7:10. Very long line and moved slow. I think the photopass photographer had an issue at first. It was incredibly humid and hot in the tent. My kids ate candy during the wait.

Then we trick or treated next door at Pete's. Walked thru and got plenty of candy. There was long lines at other stations.

Checked Pooh characters meet - VERY long line and we were not willing to stand in another long character meet. So went to Alice/Hatter instead. Very short line all night. Rode Teacups. Long wait for Tweedles and the Queen. We skipped them and headed to HM ride. Walked right on. This was around 7:45. The entertainment was outside after the ride. We only saw a few minutes as it was the end of the set. Waited 5 min for ghost magic shot there. We didn't wait for her to come back but headed to the parade to watch around liberty square. We watched the parade at the Liberty Square Emergency Exit which turned out great as we were there a bit after 8 and had a great view. There was a stall in the parade at Wreckit Ralph so we popped out and hit the hitchhiking ghost shot which there was no one and was able to still see the rest of the parade.

Then headed to ride carousel and met Merida (waited 10 min). Then headed to grassy spot to watch Celebrate the Magic, Fireworks. Great spot and could sit during it. We then moved up to watch Hocus Pocus show which was awesome!! Hustled over to the Pooh meet but they had already closed the line at 11pm. Bummer. Then headed to Minnie/Donald/Daisy and met them and waited about 10 min. They didn't sign autograph books. Neither did Alice and Hatter. We did another round of trickortreat thru Pete's. No wait at all and were handing out candy by huge handfulls.

Then we headed to little mermaid ride. On our way saw a photopass photographer. No wait. It was something new and they wouldn't say what it was. After looking on MDE it was floating tombstone magic shot. They had some long piece of equipment that they moved behind you. Then we walked on Little Mermaid ride - i think we might have been the only ones there.

Then we headed towards tomorrowland and ran into Tweedles. Met them with no wait. No Queen of Hearts though. We walked over to Monsters Dance Party and Mike, Sully, and Boo were there. Was fun but my kids were getting tired. We then went to main street to get the dancing ghost magic shot (main street) and grave diggers (near pumpkin by railroad). Headed out to get Headless Horseman magic shot at 12:05 but were already done and gone for the night. Really bummed about that one.

It was a super fun night!! We were able to do a lot! It was so very hot and humid that night!! I was really bummed we missed the Pooh meets and the Headless horseman magic shot. And we totally forgot about the Cadaver Dans. It seemed that stuff was closing up around 11. Almost need one more hour of party time. We left just after midnight and there was no line at all for the monorail.

This is my tentative plan for our party as well. Did you go straight from your parade spot to hold a space for the Hocus Pocus show? I'm trying to figure out how early we need to get there before the show starts. Thank you!

If you are watching from Frontierland don't follow behind the parade, the CM make you go left or right at the Liberty Square bridge. I would watch from Frontierland on the side closer to Adventureland, when the parade finishes head to Adventureland and go towards the HUB and wait for you to be able to grab a spot for the show.
It was a mess at the brigde when everyone got stopped there
