"Official" 2017 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Boo to You!

I assume if arriving at 4 or earlier for the party that we would have to make our way back outside the park in order to get the headless horseman magic shot? Also assume there wouldn't be an issue getting back in as long as we have our wristbands?
Party magic shots don't begin until after 7.

My dd has changed her mind again and wants to be Pua so this Moana thing is awesome. We were planning on not meeting characters because the last party we went to (MVMCP) was mostly spent in line to see sandy clause. We missed so much of the things we wanted to do. But I guess we will need to make an exception now.
 
Ok character list & trick or treat locations have been revealed!

Also Moana has been officially confirmed!

Officially confirmed as in Disney announced it or just what you read from WDW Magic? I'm not implying that they're unreliable as I replied to someone else that they are pretty reliable but if it hasn't been officially announced by Disney I'm not going to think its quite set in stone just yet.
 
So, how does everyone think Moana will affect party plans for those that have her as a MUST for M&G? My musts for the party are BTY parade and Hallowishes, doing some trick or treating, Hocus Pocus, and now, meeting Moana. If stepD and DH want, they can go ride rides while we TOT and wait in line for Moana. I'm thinking that I pretty much have to cancel my BOG ADR during the party now. I really wanted a shot of DD in her Belle ballgown with Beast, but I'm not even sure she will do it and I'm surely not going to miss Moana for a "chance" that she will be willing to meet the Beast. I just wonder how long we will have to stand in line. I might have to see if DH is willing to stand in line starting at 4:00 while we do BBB and hopefully he can explain to those in front of and behind him that he will be stepping out of line so DD and I can get in line for Moana. Even if we just join him in line, he and I would not be taking pics with Moana, we would just let DD do that.

We have BBB at 5:15/5:30 then I'm thinking we're going to have to go straight to meeting Moana and try to get a spot for Hallowishes and the late parade and squeeze in TOT and do HP at midnight. DD really wants to meet Jasmine, but I'm hoping we can take care of that at Epcot the first day and then maybe Jasmine will also be at Cindy's for breakfast. Rapunzel is her other top princess, but we have a FP for that the same day as the MNSSHP.
 
Just for the sake of asking: Is Moana still meeting anywhere else? One of the resorts perhaps? I know she was at Hollywood Studios, but they replaced her with Star-Lord, just curious if this is the only way to meet her for the moment.

I could be totally wrong here but I don't think Moana will have near the impact as Jack/Sally and the Seven Dwarfs will have. Not saying she won't have a long wait but I don't think she'll be a must see for everyone.
 
FWIW...I was just chatting on Twitter with Kenny the Pirate in regards to Moana being officially confirmed and he said that Disney doesn't officially confirm any character so we'll all know for sure tomorrow.

If I was a betting man I'd say that she'll be there but I guess you never know....

I'm not one to really dress up in a costume but I wanted to wear something festive. I was thinking of picking up this dress to wear to the party. I'll probably wear some cropped leggings or bike shorts underneath for comfort. Does it look festive enough?

edit: oops it linked the pineapple style, I was thinking the Bats one!

Super cute!!! If you got the new light up bat mickey ears at Disney that would look so awesome with it!

She doesn't currently meet anywhere else.

I was going to treat her like a Jack and Sally M&G seeing as she doesn't meet normally anymore but I am hoping the line will not be as bad as that. Will have to wait and see what the first parties are like.

Great idea! When are you going? I'll be there on 9/1 and I'll for sure report back on my experiences.

Not till 24th and 26th of Sept I have the worst case scenario in my head so that if she turns out to be busy I won't be so disappointed. I'm meeting Jack and Sally on the 24th and then 26th I haven't finalised who I'm meeting yet.

That would be great we need all the info we can get :surfweb:, I hope she's only a 20-30 minute wait. I don't know what it was like when she was meeting in Hollywood Studios.
 
That's a first. Unless I'm mistaken (and I did get very little sleep) I don't see any characters subtracted from last year and I see two additions: Moana and Eric.

If the list is complete, missing this year is Jafar, Tink, Snow, Merida, and Buzz which puts us down 1 (adding Moana, Anastasia/Drizella, Eric)

ETA - down 1 character but 2 meets (4 separate meets in 2016 to 2 new meets [with Eric added to an already existing location]).
