Can you tell we’re excited? Yes, we are STOKED. We’ve already told you about everything confirmed for the party this year, plus you have a list of snacks (so much YES to the snacks), so now we’re going to give you a rundown of all the entertainment you can enjoy at the party PLUS the characters you’ll see. So let’s get going!

Characters

One of the best things about these after-hours parties is the chances you get to see characters you would not normally see in the parks. You’ll get to take photos with some of these characters, as well as see others in the Boo-To-You parade, which is exclusive to the event.

First, we had to visit with the always entertaining Madame Renata over at the Haunted Mansion. She was located in the queue, so if you want to see her, you’ll have to start heading through the line, even if you don’t plan to ride.

And we spotted Jasmine and the Genie saying hello to some guests in Adventureland as well!

We always love seeing Stitch in his Elvis costume. He can be found inside the old Stitch’s Great Escape building — yes, it hasn’t been completely demolished!

You can also say hello to the Seven Dwarfs over in Dwarf Corner in Storybook Circus!

Entertainment

The party also has a lot of exclusive entertainment. Let’s take a look at that now.

Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular

This is the fireworks show that is EXCLUSIVE to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. It includes special effects, lighting, projects, and fireworks. The fireworks are hosted by Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Fireworks!

Those with MagicBand+ will find that their MagicBands will react to the fireworks show by lighting up, vibrating, and more. Even if you don’t have one, you can enjoy the amazing projections on the castle!

But there’s even MORE entertainment to enjoy at the party.

Boo To You Parade

The Boo To You Parade is offered twice each party night at 9:15 and 11:15PM.

This year’s parade features some NEW characters, too, like Minnie, Daisy, and Clarabelle dressed as the Sanderson Sisters.

It’s the Sanderson Sisters!

We spotted pals like Pluto, Tigger, and Pooh…

…and Tinker Bell!

We can’t forget about the Haunted Mansion ghosts!

But the REAL highlight is those Haunted Mansion grave diggers!

Now that’s what we call a wonderfully spooky parade.

Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular

Speaking of the Sanderson Sisters, Winifred, Mary, and Sarah are the stars of a show that takes place in front of Cinderella Castle.

Villains Spelltacular

During the show, they call on some of Disney’s most famous villains to join them to create the Hocus Pocus Party Potion. This show takes place at 8:35PM, 10:45PM, and midnight!

What a show!

The sisters are BACK!

Dance Parties

What’s a party without some dancing? The Zom-Beatz Dance Party happens on the Tomorrowland Stage and features some of your favorite Disney’s Zombies characters.

You can also head over to Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe for Disney Junior Jam, which features all of your favorite Disney Junior characters.

We personally got to see Timon when we stopped by!

Hi Timon!

This year also features some NEW Pop-Up Parties, which will feature Max Goof and his Powerline Party Pals. How fun! If you’re ready to REALLY Stand Out, here’s your chance.

But that’s not the only entertainment going on in Magic Kingdom

Other Entertainment

You’ll find the Cadaver Dans singing some appropriately spooky songs in their Halloween costumes. Yes, this is the Halloween version of the Dapper Dans. They perform from 7:00PM to about 10PM intermittently in Frontierland, but be sure to ask a Cast Member nearby if you’re not seeing them for the most up-to-date information.

Whew! That’s a lot of things to see and do, right? But we’re just getting started. We’ll be covering everything else at the party, too, including the exclusive FOOD, so stay tuned to DFB for more.
