It's still only August, but Halloween is already in full swing at the Magic Kingdom. In fact, they've already hosted two Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Parties... and the third party is scheduled for tonight! It feels a little early to be celebrating; but that's also coming from the girl who has been hunting for spooky merchandise for a few weeks... and she had her first pumpkin iced coffee this past Wednesday when Dunkin officially brought pumpkin everything back. So I guess I have no room to judge!
All of the Halloween merchandise and social media posts from the party have put me more into the spooky spirit though, and I caught myself watching quite a few Youtube videos this week. Eliot and I watched a few recaps of the first Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party over the weekend. And I watched a few more during my lunch break on Wednesday. (I had already had drank the pumpkin coffee and it was raining out... so I leaned hard into pretending it was fall for the afternoon.) So today, I thought that I'd share a few of those videos so you could get into the Halloween spirit too!
After two years of the pandemic version of the party replacement, After Hours Boo Bash, I was so excited to have Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party back in it's full glory. And Disney did not disappoint. In fact, they also had a surprise for us that was announced a few days before the first party... that Max dressed up as Powerline would be joining the festivities! Eliot and I thought he was going to have a meet and greet, but Disney was smart enough to put him in his own pre-parade dance party... and it's probably a good thing because the line would have been so long to see him i2i... hehe.
After Max's dance party, Mickey's Boo-to-You Halloween Parade made it's way down Main Street. They're lucky they were able to pull it off because the first parade of the opening party had to be cancelled due to rain. (It was unsafe for the performers.)
The Cadaver Dans are always a favorite. Eliot and I love listening to the Dapper Dans and I'm so glad that they're included in the Halloween festivities!
Due to the rain the first night, they were only able to perform a modified version of the Hocus Pocus Villains Spelltacular. So this video is of the shorter version of the show.
During the second Halloween Party, they were able to do the Hocus Pocus Villains Spelltacular in it's entirety. I like how they added a new introduction to acknowledge the Hocus Pocus 2 sequel that's coming out at the end of September to Disney+.
We all know that there is no better way to end a magical day than with fireworks. The Halloween party always ends with special fireworks. Eliot and I absolutely loved the old version- Hallowishes; it might even be our favorite Disney fireworks period. But Disney's Not-So-Spooky Halloween Fireworks Spectacular is also a great show!
As you can see, Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party is back as it was always intended to be. And if you ask me, it's glorious. I'm definitely daydreaming about going again. Obviously, Eliot and I won't be going to the Halloween Party this year now that we cancelled our anniversary trip... but I definitely want to try to go down next year, even if that's pretty much the main reason we're going to Florida! Boo to You!!! °o°
