"Official" 2017 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Boo to You!

[Queen of the WDW Scene]

So I've come up with a theory about the FP+ issue...
Has it only happened to those that have a Bounce Back offer and/or have modified their reservation in some way?

Let's try that again! This Halloween stuff is from WDW Floral & Gifts new for 2017, what's missing is Goofy. He is being offered I just cannot secure a picture of him.

Oh I love them! Can't afford to buy one though

I was thinking that they were reminiscent of a Day of the Dead theme, but I'm not sure how that relates to Disney...

I was thinking Day of the Dead (little of a Dr Facilier influence too) - maybe inspired by the new movie Coco?

What about the new Pixar movie "Coco" that is coming out in November? Had to google to remember the name of it, but the main character and his dog end up in the "Land of the Dead".

We posted that at the same time, lol.

Great minds think alike
This would make a great theme this year, as long as we don't loose the Sanderson sisters.

I can't believe I forgot about Coco! And I did originally think Dr. Facilier when I first saw Mickey, but then Minnie looked dressed for Day of the Dead.

Question about tickets for MNSSHP. We're planning on spending the day at a waterpark (Me, husband, MIL, 9 year old daughter and 4 year old daughter). Our plan is for me, my husband, and our 9 year old to head to MNSSHP after the waterpark while my MIL returns to our hotel with our 4 year old. We think our 4 year old will be exhausted and will not enjoy the party. My concern is that if my 4 year old refuses to stay with MIL and my husband or I have to stay with her instead are tickets transferable? Can we swap out which adult goes to the party? Is it risky to wait until the day before to get tickets (planning on the Oct 1st date)? What would others do in this situation?

You should be able to reassign the party ticket before using it for party admission as long as the MDE App or Site does not go down.

Edited: the hard tickets are ticket media for you to access the party entitlements. If you have MBs, you don't need the hard tickets as long as the tickets are linked to your MDE.

I was thinking he looked like Dr. Facilier and a skeleton combined. Minnie has the skeleton thing going on too.

So true! Good point!

I have a question. I'm wondering if Disney allows people to dress up on Halloween day to go into the parks. I'm already doing the party but I'm not doing on Halloween night so I was wondering if they would let people do anything during the day in the parks and around the resorts. Nothing too outlandish mind you.

No the policy does not change for Halloween Day. Adults can wear costumes at 4pm and kids all day long.

 

[FoxC63]

I totally forgot about the Coco movie!

 

[mamapenguin]

I'm confused. I have party tickets, but e-tickets(printed from email). They are linked to my MDE and I have FP+ booked. Will they give me hard tickets at the gate or will I need to go to a ticket booth? I would rather not go to a ticket booth if I can help it. TIA

So has everyone signed up on the Official 2017 MNSSHP Guest List Thread? So far there are more guests attending the August party than on Halloween Night! Very interesting! September 1st party is looking the busiest!

On the Official August 2017 Countdown Thread ~ Feeling hot, hot, hot!!! many are packing up and heading out!



EDIT: I did drop them a line asking if they could post photos of any Halloween Merchandise at the parks!

LOL, I'm going on Sept 1st. It's Labor day weekend. Only a month away. More than halfway done with our Haunted Mansion costumes.

Also, I appreciate everyone that has been posting their experiences with their FPs and encourage everyone to continue sharing information.

If they're showing up in you MDE account you're all set to go, but do yourself a favor and bring the printed voucher with you and the method of payment Just in Case!

EDIT: I will add if you want the plastic party ticket for scrapbooking or as a memento you will need to exchange. This can be done at your WDW resort, Disney Springs or at Guest Services. Here's what they might look like:
Surprisingly nothing special.

I need to finish my DD's skirt and get my white apron and then I'll post.

How do I access our FP+? Through the App?
I'm A DL AP holder, but I have very little FP+ experience. On Spring break we had plastic tickets. TIA

Emboldened by some of the wing feedback I got earlier in this thread (that they were fine with wings during the party), we're going ahead with our fairy costumes! I started work on DDs wings today. She specifically wants to have the costume that Tink wears in The Lost Treasure. I'm going to be Vidia and my DH is such a good sport, he's going to be Bobble.

My goodness! Boy, are you talented! I would love to see the finished costume!!! Can you post?

They should be loaded into your MDE account when your window opens. Your Magic Band is all you need to access them.
