Who Could Replace Aerosmith on Rock 'n' Rollercoaster?

Quick Tips for Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party







































Plans:
If you want to, you can stay in Magic Kingdom all day long. You will need a regular Magic Kingdom park entrance ticket. A few hours before the party starts, wristband stations will open up inside the park. Find one by consulting either a map. A Cast Member will scan your party ticket and give you a wristband. This wristband will prevent you from getting kicked out at 7pm!

It is okay to leave the park, change into your costume at the hotel and then come back to the park in time for the party.

You can even visit other parks on the day you will attend your party.

You do not have to show up right at 7pm. Lines to get into MK will shorten around 8-9pm. 

Costume Tips:
Make sure your costume is comfortable enough to walk around in for hours.

Make sure to follow the costume guidelines or you will be asked to leave the party.

Make sure your costume is weather appropriate. It will not be much fun if you are either sweating or freezing.


With everyone in costumes, it may be tricky to recognize your family if you get separated. Make a game plan in case this were to happen, especially if you have little ones. 

The more creative and unique your costume is, the more attention you will get from characters, parade performers and other Cast Members. 

Boo To You Parade:
The second Boo To You parade is less crowded than the first.

The parade starts in Frontierland and ends on Main Street, like the FOF parade. 

Watch for the grave diggers. Definitely the coolest part!

What To Eat:
You can make dining reservations during the party! Be Our Guest, Cinderella Royal Table and the Crystal Palace will be open. 

Try the special party treats! Outside of Storybook Circus you can try candy corn flavored ice cream. Gaston's Tavern will have a special Halloween cupcake. 

What To Do:
Most rides will be open during the parade. However, you can ride these anytime. I recommend skipping the rides in favor of doing party exclusive activities. 

If you do want to hit the rides, do so during one of the castle shows or one of the parades. There will be less of a wait!

If you are a character hunter, take advantage of the party! There will be meet and greets for rare characters, such as Cruella de Ville, Jafar and the Genie. And common characters, such as Pooh and Mickey, will be dressed up in Halloween costumes!

The Hallowishes firework show is not to be missed! It is, in my opinion, the best firework show at the Magic Kingdom. Check your party map for the time it will begin. And don't worry about getting a good seat - they're all fantastic! The Hallowishes fireworks are so big that you will be able to see them anywhere you are standing. 

Party Merch:
If there are any left over, Halloween merchandise *might* be marked down starting November 1st. You can choose to wait until then to purchase a T shirt. 

Exclusive party merchandise is only sold in specific locations. These will be marked on the map. Be sure to pay attention to this so you do not waste your time wandering into the wrong stores!

Trick-or-treating:
You do NOT need to bring a bag for trick or treating. Cast Members will supply you with one, and they're a fun keepsake for following Halloweens!

Each station is marked by a pumpkin on the map. There are also pumpkin signs throughout the park to make them more easy to find.

For less of a wait, go to the stations that are in the back of the park.

If a certain station has your favorite candy, you can go back in line for seconds...or thirds...or tenths!

A Review of Tinkerbell

One day my friends decided to Disney Bound as the fairies. They asked me which one I wanted to be and I had no clue. I had never seen a Tinkerbell / Fairies movie despite that the franchise was already 8 years old. But after a brief description of the fairies from my friends, I decided to go as Silvermist, the water fairy.  That was a year ago. Just recently I decided it was about time for me to check out this franchise. So I sat down and watched 2008's Tinkerbell. It was not as bad as I anticipated. Sure, there were some cheesy moments and the animation was crude. The movie's strong point was the voice acting of all the different characters. Tinkerbell has an all star cast with Kristen Chenoweth, Lucy Lui, Raven Simone and Jesse McCartney. Tinkerbell is voiced by none other than Mae Whitman. I am a big fan of Mae and she did not disappoint. I also really liked all the different characters, each with their unique talents and personalities. I think little girls could easil...
