Halloween Events

The Halloween Events at Disney's theme parks are varied as the locations. Usually held between mid-September and early November running through the Halloween season. In all cases, Mickey, Minnie, and other athmosphere characters have worn special Halloween-themed costumes.

Disneyland
Halloween Time features the "Haunted Mansion Holiday" overlay at The Haunted Mansion, and starting in 2006, the main theme park was decorated with pumpkins, including a 12-foot Jack O'Lantern shaped like Mickey Mouse in front of Main Street USA and smaller pumpkins around the Walt Disney-Mickey Mouse "Partners" Statue representing each of the theme areas with a character from Disney canon.

At Disney's California Adventure, a seperate admission event, "Mickey's Halloween Time" is held allowing guests to dress up in costume and go trick-or-treating for candy supplied by Masterfoods and Nestle at stations manned by costumed cast members.

Walt Disney World
At the Magic Kingdom, a seperate admission event called "Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party" features Mickey's Boo To You Parade, a stage show featuring Disney's villans, dance parties, a trick-and-treat trail based on Alice in Wonderland's Mad Hatter Tea Party called "Alice and Mad Hatter's Mad Treat Party" and the centerpiece, a Halloween-themed fireworks show titled "Happy Hallowishes: A Grim Grinning Ghosts Spooktacular in the Sky".

Disneyland Paris
Since 2005, the theme of the Halloween events has been a battle between pumpkinmen trying to paint the main park orange and pink witches freezing most of them. In 2006, Stitch of Lilo and Stitch fame was added as the central character of the activities, which have included truning Frontierland into "Halloweenland", stage shows and parades as well as a seperate hard-ticket event on October 31st. In 2007, it has not been decided how Disney's villains would be involved in the parade, which is celebrating the park's 15th Anniversary.

Tokyo Disneyland
Every year, Tokyo Disneyland has a new themed Halloween Parade and other events. In 2006, the "Kooky Spooky Halloween Show" featured a battle between Disney villains and Mickey and his friends complete with special effects from the Halloween Parade.

Hong Kong Disneyland
