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

Anyone else here tonight and think it’s just stupid crowded? We’ve done at least 20 parties, some in Halloween night, and this is by far the most crowded we’ve ever seen it. Space is a 45 minute wait. We’ve been here since noon and we haven’t seen space get over 20 minutes until the party.

I know the weather isnt helping but it was impossible to walk in Frontierland at all.
Since so many rides are down the crowds are not as dispersed as they normally would be as well as characters that aren't meeting
 
Been waiting for jack and sally since 5pm. Been at least an hour since they went inside and no update from cm’s
Edit. Coming out at 8:50 should see by 9pm. (4hours later)kids are super happy, got some trick or treating in while waiting. Hope the parade is still on later!

You with all your questions! :laughing:

1. You need to have at least one photo in your PhotoPass account, that's how the system knows to select and limit you to that one specific day. On the MDE app, tap on the three bars at the top left of the screen. Select "PhotoPass" (NOT Memory Maker) and then choose a photo. The next screen will give you three options: 1. Unlimited downloads of Your Vacation Photos for $169.00, 2. Unlimited downloads of Your Photos for This Day for $69.00 and 3. Unlimited downloads of This Photo for $14.95. Choose the second option and make sure the date you want is the one that is listed.

Once this has been done you are set to go. Everyone should be able to have photos taken. Photographers should scan from Magicbands.

2. It happens all the time, some MS are posted right away and others take more time. In regards to other photos those typically show up right away. Please note, you need to aware of which photos are taken. Some do get lost and if you do not keep track you might miss it.


Memory Maker One Day “entitlement window” begins at 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the day to which you plan to apply the entitlement and ends at 5:59 a.m. Eastern Time on the following day.

If it were me, I'd get a photo taken asap that way you're not trying to figure it out during the party. ;)

There are PhotoPass locations at all four parks, from my understanding you should be able to see your photos there. Though I will admit, I never had to deal with that.

Sorry about all the questions! This was literally sprung on me about 4 hours ago so I'm frantically trying to work pictures into our itinerary before we leave on Thursday. I hate you had to copy all that from the magic shot post because I read it from your last reply LOL! My main question was about how to link the photos to MDE but it sounds like any card linked to my MDE can be scanned by the photographer to get them on my account (we don't have magicbands).

I think we'll play it by ear and take magic shots as available so long as the wait isn't bad. We're mainly getting MM to make life easier for DW so she can be in most of the pictures. Any magic shots would just be a bonus.

Thanks again! I think I'm done with the questions, but no promises! :hyper:

:thumbsup2 I'm sure more will post when they see your questions especially about using cards and not Magicbands. Sorry, I just do not have the knowledge to help you with this. I'll keep an eye here and will update the One Day. ;)
 
I was wondering if anyone knew if the Seven Seas treasure hunt is open during the party and if it is, is it the same as a regular day or does it have a special twist (like the Sorcerer cards)? It's not listed on the map, but the undercover tourist party guide for 2018 lists it as an open attraction.
 
Well I ended up waiting again - this time during party time - for the dwarves after getting a photo earlier that wasn’t showing up. I know it can take up to 48 hours, but some of my others haven’t showed up or were able to be found by guest services.

Wait for dwarves the second time: 8:35-9:26

Photos showed up instantly the time.

I feel like it's pretty crowded. I can't imagine going to one of these things to ride rides, some of the other stuff that's going on is pretty cool though.
 
I’m so excited! We are meeting up with 4 groups of family and friends while we are there, so basically a week each, including some that we haven’t seen in many years. My husband and I are WDW newbies, as are 2 of the 4 families we are meeting, so it should be interesting, but a lot of fun!



Hmmm. Maybe I need a back up plan in case it is too hot for my costume.
That sounds awesome! You’ll have so much fun!
