Although tickets for their party is already sold out, you can still enjoy both parks during HALLOWEEN TIME at Disneyland until October 31st! As you may know, Oogie Boogie casted a spell over Disney California Adventure. If you happen to be at Disneyland park when they transition over to Mickey’s Halloween Party and make you exit the park, head over! They did an amazing job with Haul-O-Ween in Carsland, and the Guardians of the Galaxy – Monsters After Dark is scary as heck! Now, if you scored a ticket to Mickey’s Halloween Party, come early so you can not only enjoy both parks, but you’ll want to experience all the events exclusive to the Party. Early entry begins 3 hours before the Party starts. We tried to come as early as we could, but we still didn’t make it to everything. Both parks are huge! My best advice is to plan ahead especially if you have small children. You saw the security line I posted online right? It went quickly after we made it through, but we hit the ground running, and for the rest of the evening, the pace stayed the same until we had to call it a night. Come prepared, dress for comfort, and enjoy!

Download the app, prioritize, and be flexible. Maybe the candy line will take you to the other side instead of near the ride you were headed to, but it’s all in good fun and the treats are unlimited with no age limit. Bring large totes or backpacks for everyone. There are stations throughout the park, and we ended up with a ton of treats by the end of the night. Some of the healthy treats were apple slices, petite carrots, and freeze-dried apples. Call them out when your kids get up there, because parents knows whats’s best.

While Trick-or-Treating is a big part of the celebration, Disneyland went all out with the entertainment too which includes a special display of fireworks and the Headless Horseman leading the Frightfully Fun Parade down Main Street ten minutes beforehand. You won’t want to miss it! If you’d love to meet Disney Villains, they will be there too. Plus they’re offering unlimited PhotoPass downloads this year for the Party! They have the best cameras even in the darkest settings! Simply pull out your phone app ready to scan.

Non-exclusives

Two attraction which rises to the occasion, their transition can be enjoyed day or night. No visit is complete without them.

• Haunted Mansion Holiday: Here to stay for through the holidays, the Haunted Mansion has transformed to my favorite version of the Haunted Mansion – “Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas.” Scary seasonal surprises include ginger-dread houses, blood-curdling pies and more.
• Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy: Space Mountain is once again taken over by a powerful dark force… “As the universe’s newest explorer, you’ve been recruited to investigate a creepy cosmic phenomenon within the darkest regions of Space Mountain. But when your starship becomes mysteriously possessed by something sinister, your voyage takes an unexpected detour into a shadowy realm—an uncharted galaxy where haunted star clusters, supernatural supernovas and spine-tingling phenomena threaten you at every turn. Dip and careen past spectral stars and scary satellites during your spirited space ride in the dark. Shiver and shudder amid the inky blackness—glowing apparitions reaching out in all directions to grab you. Behold ghoulish orbs of light, howling comets and materializing meteors. And shriek in fear inside a wicked wormhole—piercing screams, ghostly music and inhuman sounds echoing all around. Will you make it back to Earth… or will the phantoms of Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy haunt you forever?”
