"Official" 2018 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - A Spooktacular Celebration!

Okay here is my very long party review from Friday 8/31. We walk very slow.
505 bus arrived at MK
515 thru security and turnstiles with party bands. Hardly any wait.
520 Sorcerer's Orange bird card. Person was in front of the firehouse handing them out.
525-543 Emporium for party shirts and ornament. Sent to hotel.
550 did bypass and got starter bag of candy and some pics.
6-605 Auntie gravities for candy corn milkshake. This is a lot of sugar. To us it had faint candy corn taste.
Headed over to tables that face the tea cups.
625-635 rain, pouring rain
640 yup i was that person that had to start the character line. 1st in line for the queen of hearts and tweedles. They came out at 702.
645 ToT line opened in cosmic rays. Tag teamed that.
650-702 tag teamed dumbo popcorn cart for Oggie Boggie bucket. 2nd family had theirs at 652 from castle cart
706 finished m&g with queen of hearts. Yes we took 4 minutes but the tweedles wouldn't behave....
709 picture with cruella in front of pooh ride. No autographs.
710-713 storybook treats for HH clip/straw
714-718 ToT pinocchio's long but never stopped moving.
719-732 memento morie for HM shirt sent to hotel
734-740 HM lantern photopass
741 DD played on the ghost custodial crew made on the ground. Very cute
743 HM Madam ghost leaving and posed for picture(in line for magic shot)
741-746 hatbox ghost magic shot
748 HM madam returning and posed for pic with DD
749-833 Frontier trading post for pins. Checkout line was 10 minutes. So many duplicates of the mystery set :(
835-840 golden outpost for cider slush and caramel pretzel. Both were very good. Took a 10 minute break to eat.
850-900 ToT at Tortuga tavern. Then headed for main street.
905 ordered food from Casey's. Left one person there to collect order. And headed towards exit but just didn't make it. It was a hardship but i had to stop and wait for the headless horseman's ride....(sarcasm)
915 headless horseman's ride on main street. He no longer turns around at the gate he just rides straight out.
918 Headless horseman magic shot. There were 2 photographers and only 1 family when we arrived. SCORE!
walked back in mickey m&g side and found a front row parade spot in front of town hall. No more than 2 deep anywhere around.
938-953 parade on main street. We ate while we waited. Creeper crew showed up around 920.....
954-958 exchanged the 2 allergy tokens i had. Picture posted on page 414.
959-1003 photographers just returning to main street. Got 2 magic shots. Ballroom ghosts and jack o lantern.
Hit a snag here as i headed back to Ariel ride for skeleton dance magic shot. According to chandler it has been pulled due to guest feedback for improvements. Hoping to return for october party. Don't shot the messenger.
1015-1027 fireworks in fantasy land. We were completely surrounded with them going off. It was great. Best fireworks ever.
1028 ToT ariel grotto, no one else there
1029-1033 pirate goofy m&g
1035-1037 ToT train station short line
1050-1136:step sisters photo with DD. Asked but told no autographs. Philharmagic ToT 2 stops inside. Icobod crane and the headless horseman movie just ending as we walked thru. Went thru a second time and stopped in theater because the skeleton dance cartoon was just starting. We watched the whole cartoon before leaving.
ToT at cosmic rays. We did this line 2xs. Then headed to carousel of progress ToT stop. Lotso was just dancing his way out on break and gave up a wave. 2 families in his line. Next up was 2 trips on the monsters inc ToT trail. This had 2 candy stops. We had no wait in ToT lines after our 1037 stop.....
1137-1143 elvis stitch. The line closed while we were in it probably 1140ish. Don't know if it reopened.
1149-1159 Emporium for yet more merchandise that we decided we did need....
12-1205 cauldron magic shot on main street. I was told they would be out till 1am.
1205-1223 flew over to catch the last hocus pocus show that had just started. Not too crowded.
1225-1250 took an AC break in Casey's. Only one other table occupied.
1255-108 waited at bus stop for bus. As we walked up one pulled out.
122 arrived at our resort.
For our candy haul. We were 2 adults and 1 child. I listed all the stops. I do watch to see which cast member are being generous and chat with them. You usually get an extra handful especially when its kate and no one behind you. We left with enough candy to fill 8 gallon zipper bags. I have sorted it now to make classroom goodie bags for Halloween. Sorry i am not counting it! Gallon bags in the back, quart bags in the frontView attachment 348461

Woof! What a report! So happy you did this all in one lump, awesome job!


938-953 parade on main street. Creeper crew showed up around 920... - Do you remember where you were sitting in front of? Was this Nick & Judy Zootopia Party Patrol?

1137-1143 elvis stitch. The line closed while we were in it probably 1140ish. - This has been reported during other parties as well. Was the line behind you long?

625-635 rain, pouring rain - It rained
915 headless horseman's ride on main street. He no longer turns around at the gate he just rides straight out. - And he still rode for the parade? Wow, that's new!

skeleton dance magic shot - You were looking for "The Skeleton Dance Backdrop" ? I don't remember seeing anything about skeletons being released this year.

Thank you so much for your time, energy and patience. I'm only try to confirm information so others may use it. Again, I greatly appreciate your contribution to this event. :thumbsup2
 
Has anyone said when to line up for Stitch? I was thinking around 5:30 and eat in line.

I'm still waiting to see a confirmed time when he starts meeting. If it's at 7pm and you line up at 5:30 that could be a long wait. Just not sure about him.

Why does his line shut down so early 11:35-11:45. Is there a lot of people in his queue that are still wanting to meet him? :scratchin
 
I collected 2 allergy tokens and redeemed them at town hall. This is what i got. My DD has 2 peanut allergies in her class so when i send in goodie bags i will use this for those kids.View attachment 348445 View attachment 348445
Can anyone get these? I would love the gummy bears, fruit snacks, and smarties but I have no allergies and I don’t want to take away the treats from others who need them.

Thank you for such a detailed post! You’ve made me really excited and we still have over a month to go!!
 
Can anyone get these? I would love the gummy bears, fruit snacks, and smarties but I have no allergies and I don’t want to take away the treats from others who need them.

Many do but I'd say please don't. When we attend there is hardly a selection left. My son who has nut allergies was limited to one box of cookies, some Jelly Beans, two or three Gummy worms, a big handful of smarties and a handful of craft kits.
Just saying.

I probably won’t worry about it then. I love smarties and gummy bears but I don’t want to take them from someone else. I can get some at home.

Yes it was the nick and judy crew. We were just in front of the entrance to town hall where you meet micky and tink right on the curb.

Stitch line there was only about a dozen people behind me. Not enough people it would have been after midnight when he finished.

Yes i was worried he wouldn't ride but it was only raining hard for a few minutes and it had 2 hours to dry up. I kept fingers crossed till i i saw him ride.

That could have been what i was looking for. We missed it last year and i love that cartoon. They used to play it on Disney's Halloween treat every year. They are hoping to have it back for October parties...according to the photopass guy i spoke to. He seemed knowledgeable. Other 2 had no clue what i was looking for...

Any other questions. Happy to share....

Disney donates trucks of leftover candy. Just ask for a couple tokens when you do you regular ToT stops and redeem them. I just put them in my pocket for easy access. I don't think anyone would begrudge you a few bags of gummies and some smarties
 
Question for those that have been this year: will the Space Mountain Halloween themed overlay start at 7 when the party officially starts, or will it happen any earlier? I ask in case it would benefit me to get a FP+ for Space Mountain before the party officially starts or if I'll just need to wait for it after 7. Thanks!
It was reported that they shut down the ride at about 5 of 7 and when it reopened at 7 it had the overlay

Wow it must have been the party you attended. I didn't remember last year till 1150 to redeem mine. I stopped at liberty square location and they gave me a whole bag full of stuff. The only thing they were out of was the cookies. I think that was because they were the full size box like from a grocery store. Stopped at town hall on the way out and showed allergy bag with candy and they gave me a box of double chocolate and another box it was yellow. That was after midnight when i got the cookies.

I may get a couple tokens to save until the end of the night and see how much they have left. If they don’t have much left I’ll just give them my tokens and say I don’t need the treats.
 
I collected 2 allergy tokens and redeemed them at town hall. This is what i got. My DD has 2 peanut allergies in her class so when i send in goodie bags i will use this for those kids.View attachment 348445 View attachment 348445

So were you able to do Allergy AND Regular Trick or Treating? I can actually eat a good bit of the regular stuff, but it would be nice to supplement with the allergy if that can be done?

Yep, on Oct 31, 2017. I was sick for most of our trip but I did attend Halloween Night with DH & DS and the pickings were so slim. Going into a Allergy Friendly location without going Trick or Treating for the coins seems... Not sure what word to use here but I think you can put it together, you're a smart cookie! ;)

Will add this was at the Liberty Square location on 10/31/17.
