The Halloween spirit has filled the air at the Disneyland Resort in California.

{Oogie boogie} You down there!

Boo!

Hahahahha

It’s only the 2nd year Halloween has been celebrated at Disney California Adventure

but halloween time at Disneyland offers you a lot to do that isn’t just limited to Halloween

Party nights.

From special Character meet and greets, to multiple attraction overlays and of course

the Halloween Party, the spooky Disney magic fills the theme parks every day until October

31st.

So are you ready to see what Disneyland really has to offer when it comes to Halloween?

Well think of this as your complete Halloween guide as we count down the Top 10 ways to

experience Halloween at Disneyland.

Number 10

Welcome to Mickey’s Halloween Party!

One of the more obvious ways to experience Halloween is Mickey’s Halloween Party which

takes place on select nights at the Disneyland Park.

Now the party is completely sold out for the remaining 2018 dates but if you’re lucky

enough to have a ticket to the event, you can expect many tricks and treats.

From the The Headless Horseman with Ichabod Crane to the Frightfully fun parade with all

the Villains, plus the Halloween Screams fireworks show, the evening is full of Halloween entertainment.

And you can’t forget about Trick or Treating.

As you make your way through the many candy trails in the park, there’s more candy and

treats than you can imagine.

We’ll be looking at the Halloween Party in more detail in a future video coming really

soon, so keep an eye out for that.

Number 9 The entrance at both Disney California Adventure

and Disneyland are just the gateways to Halloween fun at the parks.

At Disneyland, one of the most popular photo sots is the giant Mickey Pumpkin in Town Square.

Wether its day or night there’s always a crowd waiting to get their picture taken;

its an iconic symbol of Halloween at Disneyland.

Then as you walk right down the middle of Main Street USA, pumpkins line the tops of

the buildings and even Tilly, the ticket attendant at the Main Street Cinema, loses her traditional

outfit in favour of something more in the Halloween spirit.

Over at Disney Calfiornia Adventure, Buena Vista street is also decorated for Halloween

but this area really comes alive at night.

The headless horseman statue is a highlight and not only is it a great photo spot, you

might just hear him come to life.

Number 8- Dapper Dans Entertainment offerings like the Dapper Dans

are part of what makes the Disney theme park experience so unique.

Now during Mickey’s Halloween Party this quartet turns into the Cadaver Dan’s as

they float on the foggy Rivers of America singing some of your favourite villainous

Disney Halloween songs.

{Singing} Cruella.

Cruella de Ville.

Cruella de Ville

But you don’t need to go the Halloween Party to hear the Dapper Dans sing these tunes.

{Dapper Dans} Folks, if you just joined us we are the Dapper Dans.

Sining songs to scare some smiles.

Hopefully we’re not too frightful.

Nothings more frightful than your famous halloween jokes.

During regular park hours the quartet can be found along main street multiple times

per day singing songs like cruelella De Vile-

{Singing} Cruella.

Cruella de Ville.

-and This is Halloween.

{Singing} This is Halloween.

Halloween.

Halloween.

Now Scream.

Make sure to check the times guide so you don’t miss the Dapper Dans.

{Singing} In this town of Halloween (Cheers)

Number 7 Every day during the Halloween season, you

can meet your favorite Disney pals dressed up in their Halloween outfits at both parks.

Throughout the entire day, characters that usually meet in Town Square at Disneyland

and on Beuna Vista street at California are dressed up for the Halloween occasion.

You can also find some Disney Villains lurking around Town Square.

While we were there Jafar and the Queen of Hearts, both at separate times were meeting

by the flagpole.

The most popular Halloween Meet and Greet would have to be Jack and Sally who meet next

to the Port Royal Gift Shop in New Orleans Square.

Unlike Walt Disney World where Jack and Sally only meet for the Halloween Party, you can

find them everyday at Disneyland.

The waits were pretty reasonable, especially earlier in the day, so check the times guide

or ask a cast member to find out the exact times you can meet your favourite Disney characters.

Number 6 At Zocalo Park in Frontierland, you can celebrate

Dia de Los Muertos or Day of the Dead.

Now Day of the Dead isn’t a Mexican version of Halloween, but it’s often associated

with Halloween since the celebration begins on the evening of October 31st and ends on

November 2nd.

Did de Los Muertos is a way to remember loved ones who’ve passed, and colourful skeletons

and skulls like the ones seen here are symbols of the celebration.

At Disney California Adventure you can also find Plaza de la Familia in Paradise Gardens.

It also celebrates day of the dead and is themed to Disney Pixar’s Coco.

There’s activities for the young ones and you don’t wanna miss a Musical Celebration

of Coco.

It’s a really fun show filled with puppetry, song ,and dance that performs multiple times

per day, right in Paradise Gardens.

{Singing} Un poquititi-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-ti-to loco!

Number 5 For the 2nd year, Cars Land has been transformed

from top to bottom for Halloween.

All the decorations are cleverly made with items associated with cars like pylons, gas

cans and booster cables.

Definitely make a point to stop by when the sun goes down, because the lighting in the

land makes a big difference.

Just like the Cadelaic Mountain range- the lighting package really sets the mood.

From the the spider in front of Flo’s Cafe right to the car celebrating day of the dead

in front of Ramones shop, a lot of detail went into this halloween overlay.

Every where you turn there’s something fun to see including these movie poster spoofs

and the Brakes Motel model in the Cozy Cone lobby.

Also at the cozy cone motel you get the chance to meet your favourite Cars characters dressed

up in their halloween costumes.

This includes Vampire Mater, Pirate Cruz Ramieriz, and even super hero Lightning McQueen.

This overlay is very clever and highly detailed, so visiting California Adventure just to experience

Cars Land is definitely worth the trip!

Number 4 Now the Halloween overlays in Cars Land have

also been extended to Mater and Luigi’s rides.

Luigi’s Rollickin’ Roadsters has become Luigi’s Honkin Haul-o-ween and Mater’s

Junkyard Jamboree has become Mater’s Graveyard JambOOree.

As you pass the mummy in the petting zoo and enter the the Graveyard JambOOree, prepare

to be whipped from side to side to tune of something a little like this:

{Music} Listen to Mater, rest in peace, at the graveyard jambOOree.

Listen to Mater, rest in peace, at the graveyard jambOOree.

At Luigis, after you pass the tire pumpkins in the queue, get ready to take a spin on

the dance floor to traditional Italian tunes with a spooky halloween twist.

{Music} Everybody love to have a honkin’ halloween.

This is the first trackless ride that’s been built at the American Disney parks and

although from the outside it might not look too exciting, its actually a lot of fun once

you ride.

Number 3 Space Mountain is one of the popular thrill

rides at Disneyland, and since 2009 the ride has been transformed into Ghost Galaxy for

the Halloween Season.

A mysterious and powerful phantom force has taken over the ride and once you ascend up

the two lift hills, its a race to escape the phantoms of Space Mountain.

This exhilarating coaster through the dark becomes even more exhilarating with new lighting

effects, the ghost projections that pop up outta nowhere and the awesome soundtrack with

these eerie ghostly sounds- It definitely gets your adrenaline pumping.

This halloween overlay is extremely popular during the Halloween season, which can mean

some pretty long waits, so getting a fast pass for Ghost Galaxy isn’t a bad idea.

Number 2 Beginning at 5pm every night, Guardians of

the Galaxy Mission Breakout is transformed into Guardians of the Galaxy: Monsters After

dark.

The story of this overlay takes place right after Mission Breakout once the Guardians

have escaped.

{Rocket Raccoon} Oh!

What are you guys still doing here?

Tours over!

The cages are open and the creatures are loose, you gotta get outta here.

Wait!

Don’t get outta here!

It turns out they accidentally left Groot behind.

{Rocket Raccoon} And I need to find him before he gets ate.

You guys can be a big help while I look for my pal.

The gantry lift full of warm parents makes a really great distraction.

Then once you enter the gantry lift you’re on a mission to distract the monsters and

save Baby Groot.

{Rocket Raccoon} Distract them already!

Not you!

Just like Mission Breakout, your ride vehicle is constantly moving weather its dropping

you at speeds of 39 miles per hour or pulsing up and down as you dangle in front of the

show scenes!

It’s a clever way a to do an overlay since you’re able to experience the original ride

during the day then Monsters after Dark at night.

The lines for this one can get kinda long as well so getting a fast pass is a good idea,

just make sure that your return window begins after 5pm and you’ll be sure to experience

Monsters After dark.

Number 1 From mid September until early January, the

Haunted Mansion gets transformed into the Haunted Mansion Holiday based off the 1993

film the Nightmare Before Christmas.

{Jack Skellington} Happy Holidays everyone! hahahaha

This overlay has been installed on the ride since 2001 and is a defiantly a favorite during

the Halloween and Christmas seasons.

Pumpkins and snow from head to toe can be found in the Mansion as Jack Skellington and

his Halloweentoewn friends do a little redecorating.

Now although the movie is a technically a Christmas movie, this overlay still fits in

really well halloween.

There’s some really fun show scenes, plus some great animatronics like Jack-

{Jack Skellington} I really outdid myself this time.

Look at all the happy faces!

Seasons Greetings everyone!

Ho ho ho ho ho

Sally which was just added in 2016 and Oggie Boogie.

{Oogie Boogie} So you found me.

Too late now.

It’s time for your gifts!

The line for the attraction does get a little long especially later in the day and at night

so your best bet is to grab a fastpass for the attraction or visit early in the morning

or just before park close.

So there you have it.

Those are 10 ways to experience Halloween at Disneyland.
