Things to do in Disney on Halloween...

[MrsSchmitty12]

other than the party, obviously?

We just decided to take a last minute trip over Halloween because DH will be there for work. We're going to try to do the party on Thursday (10/29) or Sunday (11/1). But I'm trying to figure out if there is other stuff going on Halloween day to do with kids (4 yo and 11 months).

Also, any thoughts on which party day would be better (Thursday before or Sunday after)? We're staying offsite Thursday to Sunday, and then planning to stay onsite Sunday night. So I'm leaning toward doing it that night.

Most Disney resorts do something. Boardwalk had a dj, Mickey and Donald, games last year. It was fun. I would do the party the day you are staying on sight. Would be easier to get back to resort using Disney transportation.

Yeah, it's mostly at the resorts. POP is my perennial Halloween resort and they have contests and themed DJ and movies out by the pool. I think there was a costume contest and a guess the number of candy corns in the jar contest. They make it fun for what it is.

Fort Wilderness is the best. Awesome trick or treating at the sites.

Yes, Ft. Wilderness for sure!! We did Mickey's Backyard BBQ last year, and it was great (I had read mediocre reviews and was worried)! Characters in costume, dancing, autographs, and a surprise appearance by Phineas & Ferb! After that, we went trick or treating around the RV loops and it was great! They really go all out with decorations and candy!! So much fun! Oh and just before the BBQ, we got to see the golf cart parade!

I think every resort does something, but I'm interested to hear people's personal stories.
