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

[scrappinginontario]

I'm considering October 19 for the party (it's my birthday and last day at the World). Are Fridays significantly more busy than say, Sunday or Thursday?

Friday’s are busier they say as more locals go but I’ve also heard that people going to sold out parties are even okay if they go in with a good plan. I believe a good plan is the key.

I got my Return to Sleepy Hallow event booked!
So our MNSSHP is on 10/16 and then our Sleep Hallow event is on 10/18. So excited!!

I’m sitting here twiddling my thumbs hoping online tickets come available tomorrow. I just don’t want to deal with calling.

I like that they are adding new photo opportunities. I am planning on buying MM just for the one day so let the fun begin

I can't wait to see what's new also for those interested:

Memory Maker One Day begins at 6am Eastern Time and ends at 5:59am Eastern Time the following day.

That is absolutely true!

Also, while weekends are “usually” busier, it’s not always the case. We attended two parties last year, Friday 10/13 (which i expected to sell out since it was Friday the 13th! - but didn’t), and Sunday the 15th which sold out that day. So you just never know. I always recommend picking the day that fits your schedule best.

Silly question: Someone in the MNSSHP Strategies thread mentioned entering MK through 'the party entrance', but I lost the post. Have I missed something, or were they just talking about a side queue at the normal Main Street entrance area?

Yes, after 3:30 or so they normally have the tap stations on the right side of the entrance closed off for party guests. Once 4:00 arrives you tap in and then get a wrist band right then.

I’ve heard (will be my first MNSSHP) that party guests have the option of entering the park by going behind Main Street to pick up Trick or Treat bags and t-shirts might be on sale.

Make sure you go through the party entrance though. We went to after hours, went through a normal line, and it took a day off of our park tickets.

I am still holding out hope that Club Villain and/or Villain’s Sinister Soiree come back this year! I know that there were rumors of Club Villain being moved out of HS, but that was over a year ago. But I have money set aside in case both come back, because why not give Disney even more of my money lol

That can and has happened at the party entrance when using Magicbands. Just saying.

I called the Shades of Green ticket office today and you can order them over the phone. They will email you the forms to verify eligibility and ship tickets via FedEx 3-10 days for $10 shipping fee. I think you can also pick up at the ticket office but I didn't ask because I'm willing to pay the $10 to have tickets in hand to link to MDE and book FP+.

Yep, that is what I did! They are pretty quick about it but you have to sign for them so my biggest issue was getting them from FedEx!

We are planning on doing our normal mk day on a party day so that’s good news for us to get that emh in the morning.

On our party day 9/25, it’s the ticketed early morning event in the morning and not EMH

Oh darn that stinks. Oh well we will just have to see what the hours look like. We will be super flexible with park days because we were just there and we are mainly going for mnsshp and f&w.

After you pass through the special tap stations on the right and you get your wristbands, cast members will be guiding you to stay to the right so you go behind Main Street as you said. This is where you grab your trick-or-treat bags as well as your first batch of candy. They also have some photopass photographers around there and some souvenir stands, though I don't recall if T-shirts were being sold at those last year.

We're you able to get it fixed or did you lose a day?

I ended up getting it fixed the next day at the front desk at pop. They were very helpful and put comp tickets on that we could use.
