"Official" 2018 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Spooktacular Celebration!

[godders]

Eugh, help me guys please,

There's 3 options for MNSSHP for my upcoming trip - 25th August (Arrival day), 31st August (Friday night), 3rd Sept (Labor Day). I've only ever done MNSSHP later in Sept/Oct so I'm not sure how the Labor day will affect the party. Each option has it's pros and cons and I'm wondering if a lot of people visiting for the long weekend will have headed home by the Monday night??

Normally on arrival day I do hit the parks for a few hours but I know how exhausting MNSSHP is and it's my friend's first trip so I don't want to kill her but I don't want to be crushed in the crowds.....

Any advice??

i'd go with 9/3. a lot of people will be heading out for school/work on tuesday.

arrival day - as you mention - will be tiring after travelling and the party may not be enjoyed to its fullest. Friday on a holiday weekend SOUNDS crowded to me.....

Online booking is rumored to become available 4/17

Thank you. Planning on attending party on 09/03 but waiting to book when it gets a little closer.

I have a follow-up Return to Sleepy Hollow question. We have an ADR at Artist Point before our Return to Sleepy Hollow reservation. Is it reasonable to walk to the Tri-Circle-D Ranch? What's the best way to get there?

I believe there is a walking path (or at least used to be, before all the construction at WL) but if memory serves, it was about a mile. In a woodsy area. Not something I’d want to do in the dark. LOL. As suggested, take the boat (blue flag).

Same. Although we are using Frontier to fly to AZ on Wednesday so they have good deals elsewhere as well thank goodness.

If/when you see the October schedules please let us know!

Frontier flights through 11/14 were just released for Discount Den members. Got our $39 flight

I just saw I had an email from them! We might be moving our dates around some because I'd rather take the $44 flight vs. the $84 one. The only problem is the $44 is on the 23rd late at night and I was hoping to attend the party that day.
ETA: I lied. The day we planned on leaving is actually only $59 so we are good that day. We might be changing the day we come home, though.

You won’t be able to walk. Artist point is at wilderness lodge and Sleepy Hollow is at Ft. Wilderness. There’s a boat you can take.

I Have another question. I have a 8pm Sleepy Hollow ticket. Do the boats run after it to MK again so I can catch monorail to TTC or should I drive to Wilderness Lodge and park and take the bus, Or can you drive to Ft. Winderness?

If MK is still open, boats will still be running. Don’t drive to FW as you’ll then have to take the internal bus back to the settlement. Better to park at WL and boat from there, IMO, if you want to drive.

Its a party night so they should be running, correct?

ETA - For ease of everything, I would prefer to keep car at TTC if the boats are running

Yes, you should be fine taking the boat then!

Worst case scenario, the internal boat (blue flag) loops between WL, FW and CR. You could always boat to CR and hop on the monorail from there.

We have Return to Sleepy Hollow reservations at 10pm on October 5th.

Quick question...did you want to book 10pm on that day or did you try for earlier and it I only ask because that is the day I was going to try to do it at 8pm but I can't book it til Friday.

I wanted 10pm from the start. I'm doing this as a surprise for my mom, so I made an 8pm ADR at Artist Point with the plan that I could "suggest" we got for a boat ride over the check out the stables and then surprise her with the event. She really likes horses so I think she'll go for it.

We also wanted the priority seating and our TA was able to secure it for us without any issue.

I don't mind the mile walk (thought I might at the end of a week at Disney), but is it totally dark or is there some lighting? The boat ride sounds nice.

Is there any hope of booking the Sleepy Hollow event for arrival day at 180 days?

I got it at 180 days but was unable to get premium at the 8pm show, there was still some at the 10pm but I didn't want that late. You need to call right at 7am tho if you want to get it. I called at 7 and was told there was a 60 min wait but people must have given up cause I got it at 7:15

Sorry for my ignorance but is the Sleepy Hollow event an add on to the Halloween Party or is a separate event?

Separate event

 

[Rich M]

Separate event

So is it on the same night as the Halloween Parties or the same? I guess I am confused because there is a lot of mentioning of it on this thread and I don't want to miss out on something that could be awesome.

Just a suggestion....Should all the Sleepy Hollow discussions be moved to a separate thread so there is no confusion since it is a separate event?

I think that would be a good idea since this thread is supposed to be about the Halloween parties.
