"Official" 2017 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Boo to You!

Not open for further replies.
So someone a while back mentioned window decorating. I hadn't thought about that.

I don't want to lug the Halloween boxes down from the attic in August, but I could pick up a few things at Dollar Tree.

But my party is September 1. Would it be weird to have Halloween decorations up so early? I know party-goers are in the Halloween spirit that early but is the average resort guest?

I've never done MNSSHP before, and I have to confess that when in the MK in early September before I thought they were really jumping the gun on the decorations.

But this year I'm in the spirit! I might put a few paper bats up in the window. Why not?!

I love this idea too! Dollar Tree Halloween window clings - easy peasy! Or have your kids (if you have kids) cut out bats & Mickey Mouse ghosts!

Hi all, first timer to MNSSHP and very excited!!! We actually just decided yesterday to go on Friday, Oct. 20th, and we bought our tickets. Now on to the planning!

My friend and her 2 kids, DS11 and DD7, won't arrive until late the night before the party, so we will sleep in and chill before the party - it's the kids' first time to WDW! We're also going with another friend and her DS14 and DD17, all seasoned WDW'ers, but none of us have been to MNSSHP. So I'm reading through this thread and other tips online.

Our main priority is going to be rides, since it's the kids' first time at MK, but we will also make sure we see the fireworks and hopefully the 2nd parade. We will arrive at 4:00 PM. I made a touring plan, and it looks like we can fit just about everything in, but I'm not sure how realistic that is, especially since a Friday night party so close to Halloween may be very crowded.

What are the least crowded CS restaurants for dinner, and do you recommend we eat dinner before the official party starts?

I'm sure I will have more questions as I keep reading and planning. And I'm working on a fun Ariel costume! :-)
 
Ok i have my gift cards in and am ready to order MNSSHP. Do they mail these or add them to MDE? I have 4 people on my reservation and 1 person on a seperate reservation. Do i need to buy his ticket seperatly or can i assign it to him from my MDE?
 
Rookie party-goer here!
I'm staying at the Grand Floridian and am planning to take the monorail to MK around 3:15. I plan to stay in MK until midnight, and I was wondering if taking the ferry boat or monorail back to GF would be more efficient or if anyone had personal experience/recommendations with getting back to GF?
At midnight, my family will definitely be wanting to get back to the room as soon as possible. :) #notnightowls
 
Going next year but quick question. If you have memory maker as part of 14 day ticket, does that include MNSSHP if you then buy a ticket for the evening or do you then have to pay extra just for that night?

I'm curious about how busy transportation back to the resorts will be immediately following the party myself. But if I were staying at the GF I'd probably just walk.

I wish we could walk too, but, unfortunately, there is no walking path from MK to GF.
