Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party 
Offers ‘Spooktacular’ Fun

Mickey and Minnie Planning to Show Off New Costume-Party 
Look at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party Dates, Beginning Sept. 5

When the Disney characters dress up for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this September and October, Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse will be debuting a whole new look. Mickey has traded his scarecrow costume for stunning purple and orange eveningwear fit for a Halloween ball. Not to be outdone, Mickey’s best girl, Minnie Mouse, exchanged her witch costume for a party dress to complement Mickey’s attire.
For Mickey, it’s a top hat and purple tails. For Minnie, it’s a party dress with a purple hat with an orange ribbon – bright and colorful, befitting the fun on 26 evenings between Sept. 5 and Oct. 31 when Magic Kingdom hosts the popular after-hours party.
Guests are invited to dress up as well for the 7 p.m.-midnight party which features two scheduled entertainment extravaganzas guests can see at no other time: the “Boo-to-You” Halloween parade and the bewitching “Happy HalloWishes” fireworks spectacular. There’s trick-or-treating galore and also a chance to experience popular attractions throughout the evening.
Parties are slated for Sept. 5, 9, 12, 16, 19, 23, 26, 28, 30 and Oct. 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 13, 16, 19, 21, 23, 24, 26, 28, 30, 31. To purchase advance tickets, guests can call 407/W-DISNEY or visit disneyworld.com/halloween.


Mickey and Minnie Mouse are decked out in their newest Halloween party-wear in front of the 
Haunted Mansion at the Magic Kingdom in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. It's all part of the fun that takes 
place when the Magic Kingdom hosts "Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party." A separate ticket is required to attend.


Whether its a pirate, a princess or a pixie (as seen here, with three girls dressed as Disney's famous fairy, 
Tinker Bell), kids of all ages get into the Happy Halloween spirit at Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, 
Fla. It's all part of the fun that takes place when the Magic Kingdom hosts "Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party." 
Activities include trick-or-treating, a Halloween parade and Disney's "Happy HalloWishes" fireworks show.


Donald and Daisy Duck are decked out in their newest Halloween party-wear in front of the 
Haunted Mansion at the Magic Kingdom in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. It's all part of the fun that 
takes place when the Magic Kingdom hosts "Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party." Activities

Clad in his favorite Jack-O-Lantern costume, Donald Duck gets into the Halloween "spirit" in the Epcot pumpkin 
patch as Walt Disney World Resort gets ready for a trick-or-treat bagful of Halloween fun. The pumpkin patch at 
The Land pavilion at Epcot is brimming with giant pumpkins, Mickey Mouse-shaped pumpkins and ducks -- Donald Duck, 
that is -- as the Walt Disney World Resort gets ready for a trick-or-treat bagful of Halloween fun. Donald Duck, 
decked out in his best costume, takes a full-moonlight-look at one of the creations at The Land -- pumpkins 
grown in special molds to resemble Mickey's famous silhouette. Also part of Donald's Halloween harvest: giant 
pumpkins weighing in excess of 400 pounds. Grown in the pumpkin patch behind The Land, the finished fruit 
will soon become part of seasonal displays across the Vacation Kingdom. Fun comes in all shapes and sizes
 during Halloween this year at Walt Disney World Resort -- from the Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party 
and the thrills and chills of the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror to the ghostly hijinks inside The Haunted 
Mansion
and a mysterious ride by the storied Headless Horseman (see photo below).


Cruella De Vil (left) the villain who coveted coats in Disney's "One Hundred and One Dalmatians," and 
The Wicked Queen (right) the jealous temptress from Disney's "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," conjure 
some frightful fun in front of The Haunted Mansion at the Magic Kingdom in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. Some fun 
facts about Cruella and The Queen: both are on the American Film Institute's (AFI) list of "Top 100 Heroes and Villains" 
of All-Time (Cruella comes in at #39 and the Queen is ranked #10) -- and, Cruella placed #14 on the 2005 "Forbes 
Fictional 15" list -- the magazine's annual, lighthearted rankings of fictional characters' financial net 
worth -- with a "Forbes"-estimated fortune of $1 billion.


With jack-o'-lantern held aloft, the Headless Horseman stampedes down Main Street, U.S.A. during 
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at the Magic Kingdom. Joining this ghostly rider are favorite 
Disney characters dressed in Halloween costumes of their own.

Cinderella Castle at Walt Disney World gets into the seasonal spirit with a brand-new 
fireworks display called "Happy HalloWishes," a Halloween-themed show featuring music from 
Disney attractions like The Haunted Mansion and films like "The Nightmare Before Christmas."
