Boo to you and a Happy Halloween Season!!

It's time for the first of many Halloween updates over the next two months. This year we're starting off with the always fun Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at the Magic Kingdom. 

​Enjoy, and Boo to you and you and you and you ... Happy Halloween!

We’re still not cool enough to Universal Orlando’s HHN media night (don’t worry, we still love them and will visit this month!). But tonight we’ll continue the early Halloween celebration at Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party!

Good news everyone, Starbucks is open!

Space Mountain in complete darkness is so fun!!

I enjoy Monsters Inc Laugh Floor, and it’s pretty cool that they made it a treat trail where you can also sit and watch their comedy acts.

I can’t believe it, you guys - Joffrey’s coffee is open too!! I gotta admit, their cold brew is delicious.

Elvis Stitch is meeting guests in the former Stitch’s Great Escape queue.

I’m still a huge fan of HalloWishes, but the Not So Spooky Spectacular fireworks are quite enjoyable too.

I don’t know if I’ll get to try all of the specialty treats, but as of right now, I definitely recommend the pumpkin cheesecake.

The Haunted Mansion is extra spooky on MNSSHP nights.

The Boo to You parade is still my favorite thing about the event. Love the addition of the bride, but I’m not so sure about the new Incredibles and Toy Story floats. But it’s all good, and that song will be stuck in your head all night!

Another successful evening of Not So Scary fun! Goodnight!

Time for a quick update from Walt Disney World where some great Halloween merchandise is now available. Just in time for the first Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party that is this week. Yes, this week.

With the first a Halloween party just a few days away (!!), all of the merchandise is beginning to appear in stores today.

I’m so excited for two and a half months of Halloween!

Does anyone care that this opened today?

Some of the Farewell IllumiNations merchandise is already on sale. $10 for the cup? Yes please!
