Halloween Time at Disney Parks

Halloween is one of those holidays, along with Christmas, that people 
love to celebrate. A lot of people don't even know what the holiday 
represents, but they like the fun that comes with decorating, dressing 
up, and handing out and collecting candy.
Disney is no exception. This month they have been hosting Halloween 
Time at the parks including Mickey's Halloween Party at Disneyland Park
and Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at Magic Kingdom Park.


At the parties, guests can dress up like on Halloween and go trick or 
treating in the park. My family attended one of these parties at Disneyland Park and 
absolutely loved it. We watched the Halloween Screams fireworks from a 
great spot right in front of the castle. It was awesome! There were 
characters everywhere to take pictures with, a lot of villains that 
don't normally make an appearance.


And just the idea of going trick or  treating in Disneyland made the night complete.

The one thing we were slightly concerned with was the costume choices
of some of the guests. The special event tickets specifically said the 
costumes must be appropriate. The question becomes: What is 
appropriate? One would assume that, Disneyland being what it is, a 
family park, it would not be appropriate to where a skimpy costume 
that barely covers anything. Yet we saw far too many Disney Princesses
with skirts so short their butts were hanging out and tops so low 
their chests were hanging out. With kids all around and 2 young boys 
with us, we were pretty appalled by some of the costumes. And cast 
members didn't seem to care.
