Frightfully Fun Parade

Frightfully Fun Parade is a nighttime parade in Disneyland for the Disney Halloween Time, featuring a spectacle of spooky spirits from the deepest bayous of New Orleans to Halloween Town and beyond.^[1]

The parade was presented exclusively during Mickey’s Halloween Party, a separately ticketed event at Disneyland Park hosted over 17 nights.^[2]

Parade Units

• Pre-parade: The Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow sets the mood as he arrives on his ghostly black steed just ahead of the parade itself, carrying a flickering jack-o-lantern as a warning to everyone along the parade route. In 2017, Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse joined the parade.

• The Nightmare Before Christmas Unit: Based on the 1993 Disney film. Zero leads the way, with the Mayor of Halloween Town announcing the arrival of Jack Skellington the Pumpkin King and Sally, as residents arrive to celebrate their favorite time of year.

• The Haunted Mansion Unit: Based on the park's attraction. Grim, grinning ghosts come out to socialize when it comes to “afterlife,” with swirling ballroom dancers, ominous gravediggers and a trio of hitchhiking ghosts.

• Dr. Facilier Unit: Based on the 2009 animated film The Princess and the Frog, Dr. Facilier calls on mystical powers, summoning his Shadow Men from the bayou to loom large over his strange and twisted Voodoo parlor.

• Finale Unit: The sinister Disney Villains appear out of the darkness, including Queen of Hearts, Captain Hook, and Governor Ratcliffe, ready to stir up some trouble. A dark, dungeon-like lair takes over the parade route, bringing with it a wicked gathering of villainy such as Maleficent in her dragon form, Hades, Lady Tremaine, Anastasia, Drizella, The Evil Queen, Jafar, Frollo, and Cruella De Vil. In 2017, Ursula and Gaston joined the parade. In 2018, Vampirina Hauntley replaced Gaston.

Trivia

• The parade theme is a remix version of "It's Halloween-lo-ween".
• The float of the finale unit was re-used from the former 50th anniversary daytime Walt Disney's Parade of Dreams and the former Mickey's Costume Party Cavalcade.
• The Snake Staff that Jafar holds is from Disney California Adventure's former stage show Aladdin: A Musical Spectacular.
