"Official" 2019 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Frightfully Festive Celebration

[ninafeliz]

DH and I decided to go to the first party. So hard to imagine Halloween next week but we are there, it's there so, we are going.
We dressed up last year but I'm thinking we won't this year. At least not planning anything right now

We’re going to the first party, out of necessity! We only have a 2 night stay, and when I realized it covered the first party made plans to go. We’re wearing costume t-shirts, both due to heat and luggage. I don’t mind going to an early one, but the first wouldn’t be my choice based on previous years reviews. But it is what it is, and I’m glad to be able to go. I did buy tickets already just in case it sells out ahead of time, I guess it sold out day of last year but with the SWGE previews that weekend I thought maybe more people might decide to go so I pulled the trigger

I'm really liking these costumes! Disney has done a great job this year, very exciting to see where their imagination takes them!.

We've hit the first party the past couple years. Usually it's closer to my birthday at the end of August.

I'm thinking of doing the Cruella party too. I just love her. She and The Queen of Hearts had the best interactions at the old Villain Party

I hope these show up for order online. I have been wanting the orange Halloween ears for two years but haven't gotten them yet because I am usually there on Halloween. These are even cuter!

If you see them, grab them as soon as you can! I was at the MNSSHP last September and I searched every store on Disney property to find the candy corn ears for one of my daughters, who was going to MNSSHP in October. The only place I found them was in MK at The Chapeau. By the time my dd got there in October, they were all gone! She was posting pics on facebook while she was there wearing the ears I bought her and a "friend of a friend" who was also in Disney at the same time messaged her asking where she found them because she couldn't find them anywhere. I'm not going to lie....when I bought them for her I wore them that night to the party!

Just booked today for the October 21st party. My first, my friend’s second. Can’t wait! We went with Halloween t-shirts instead of costumes. Her’s has Tinker Bell mine is Haunted Mansion theme. Should be fun!

I saw that! But I also saw the SWGE ones (for full price!) and since our trip was planned specifically for that AP preview and my boys loved the idea of GE MBs I went ahead and paid for them. Annoying to pay full price, but I didn't see them anywhere else so I bit the bullet and did it. Of course that order went through no problem - they get enough stock when they are $30.

I ordered the SWGE magic band this morning and just got this response:

So did I! I just posted it on a couple of the magic band upgrade threads I follow. Such a nice surprise .

Finally sorted out my costume for the Party! I’m going as Captain Hook from the Dustin Hoffman movie. My intention is to meet Jack Sparrow and challenge him to a duel! Wish me luck

Shockingly, I was able to order the Halloween bands this morning. I kept thinking an error message would appear each time I selected it for my family members. But it never came. I was able to check out with no issues. I didn’t even take the time to consult with family or ponder my decision. I just ordered as quickly as I could, and didn’t look back. Now we get to rock our Halloween bands when October rolls around!!!

We’re doing it too! I’m actually excited about it. I hope the reviews are good!

Totally behind on the thread, BUT....I FINALLY bought our tickets for Halloween night. Right now I'm planning on Daisy, Donald and Huey, Dewey and Louie for our three boys. Other option is Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head and three LGMs. Kids can decide, but need to do so quick so I can order costume pieces. Thankful they're all easy enough to put together!

In your case I would do SDMT, Splash, and BTMRR FPs, then do Space during it since there is an overlay. Nothing spectacular, but still enough to get me to do it then and choose the others for my FPs.

Thank you for the reply. Since I don’t have a park ticket for that day can I book two passes starting at 4 on or 3 fast passes starting at 3:30? I would hare for the app to think I was using one of my park days.

We asked this same question to two different cast members on the phone last week and they both said you had to start the FP at 4 if you did not want to use an additional park ticket that day. I have heard conflicting info on this, but I didn’t want to risk messing up our other days, so we just did a 4-5 and 5-6.

Historically it's been 3 FP's
3:30-4:30
4:30-5:30
5:30-6pm
Many have already posted success booking them for the party.

What would you get as far as FP's? - Rides/M&G's that aren't available during the party like the Tiki Room, Jungle Cruise. Did you know Mickey & Minnie meet together? Unfortunately this will end on Sept. 30th.
FYI - Splash Mountain & BTMRR typically are walk on's later in the evening. Personally I wouldn't book a FP on something I can walk on later in the evening.

You can book 3:30-4:30, 4:30-5:30, and 5:30-6. You could probably get away with 3:15-4:15, 4:15-5:15, and 5:15-6 since there is a 15 min grace period on the FPs. You can’t enter the party until 4:00, but you can make FPs for whenever you want. It’s just making them earlier than you can get in wouldn’t do you any good. I’ve heard that you should make all of your other FPs and do your MNSSHP last, I’m not sure if that’s necessary or not but I’ve read it. I have an AP so it doesn’t apply to me this year, so I can’t speak from experience with that.

 

[dis2cruise]

Can you do fast passes with the MNSSHP if you go before the official start 2 pm for DVC??

Just ordered military tickets for August 20th and September 10th. One trip is just me and DD and the September one is me and DS. I was pleasantly surprised when I got the order form from shades of green that the prices were cheaper than I had previously seen, only $61 each for both nights. I have never been during the summer and only going in August as a last minute trip because I got into the annual passholder preview for Galaxies Edge. Do people dress up this early for the party? Trying to think of something light that I won’t die of sweat in. I was also able to snag diner for 2 at BOG for 4:30, DD is so excited. I believe we can get in at 2 because we are DVC, plan on trying to do a couple of rides, eat and then enjoy the festivities. We’ve been to a few Halloween parties but they have always been in October.

We got that Vampirina costume for my daughter last year - the skull has a button and sings the theme song! We also got the wings to complete the look.
