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

[Kindermouse]

So...about FP+. We are going to have park hopper tix for the entire length of our stay. On those tix will be FP+ selections for the middle of the day at MK. We are going to buy tix to the Halloween party BUT...not link them to our MDE account as we will then try to get some FP+ selections after 4:00.

Question is...if anyone else has done this, how will we actually use the FP+ linked to the party tix as they won't be connected to our Magic Bands?

We did this for the Christmas party as a "phantom" account in MDE to get additional FP+s. Your FP+s will be linked to your hard ticket for the Halloween party, so you will just need to scan your ticket.

Last year I didn't buy our party tickets until the day before once we were already in FL. As soon as I bought them, they were linked to our MDE account. We did not have much trouble with FP+ during the party. We were at the first party, so not as busy as some of the later ones, but not difficult to get FP+ or get on rides.

I know my dates for late October are a given, I just don't understand why Club Villain was taken out. On Disney's website it's no where to be found

Yeah they were. They announced the first house today.

Whoops, my bad! I received an email today from universal saying tickets on sale now so assumed they'd just come out. Oh well, no damage done

I received that email too. So focused on MNSSHP/MVMCP Dates, that I hadn't checked to see of HHN dates had been released. Have you been? I had a blast when I went a few years ago.

We've actually never been so it will be a brand new experience for me and my partner when we go. Did you get an express pass for the queues when you went? I'm debating whether to get one or not? Would you go again or is it a one time thing?

Joining the thread because I'm super excited to be going back to the parks for Halloween season this year. We'll be at the Poly the week of 10/8. Looking forward to party and the new Headless Horseman event at FW.

Can't wait for party dates so I can firm up our plans!

I have been twice and purchased the express pass both times. I recommend it if you want to see all the houses, the lines can be really long!!

We plan on going again, just age of child now changes things up. We have always stayed on property at Universal. We do Universal and Disney separately. So the Express Pass is included, we ABSOLUTELY love having the Express Pass & how it works there. Lines for "Haunted Houses" tend to be longer, but were bearable to me. We rode The Mummy like 5 times in a row, so no troubles with rides with the Express Pass. DD just hit the 54" mark this year, so Universal here we come. DD loves roller coasters & HP, so couldn't go & have to tell her--no you can't ride that ride. Ha!

Added: I've done HHN with my BFF too (DH stayed home with DD), we had a blast!

Thank you, I'm definitely going to consider buying it once the express pass tickets are released.

Oooh this is making me more excited to go now.

You're so lucky that your dd loves roller coasters. I think I'll die a little if once I have kids, they're not interested in roller coasters haha

I hope the dates come out soon! We are having a meeting Saturday about ADRs for our trip 10/17-10/23 with 2 birthdays, a HDDR to do and nighttime fireworks to see. C'mon Disney!!!!!

I will be there with 3 others from October 18-24 and the only thing I don't have is the dates for MNSSHP. This will be the first time going for MNSSHP and F&W for 2 in my group and since I am the planner I keep getting emails and texts from these 2 asking "are you sure there will be a party when we will be there?" I keep telling them, no guarantees but looking at past dates there usually a party during this time.
