"Official" 2016 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Trick or Treat Fun

[2Tiggies]

Sorry. I'm sure you've probably already said, but could you repeat what line the peeps were at?

No problem. They were at the Tom Sawyer Island Dock. Same as last year As far as I know that was the only place they were handing them out. It seemed to be a dedicated Peeps sponsored location and they only had the Peeps there. They were giving a handful of about 5 at a time. Hope that helps you.

I knew I wasn't going nutty over the Reese's , and yes, I remember Butter Fingers , and Twizzlers also now that you mentioned it !
Maybe the Reese's melted too much in the heat , or possibly a sponsorship issue ?

Thanks again !

Ha! I don't care if my Reeses melt. I just put them in the freezer and they taste just as good

Okay, I'm going to MNSSHP on September 23rd with my niece and cousin, and all of us collect Disney pins. I would love for us to be able to pick up a party pin or two (it doesn't have to be LE or anything like that) but I've heard that the pin line this past party was about three hours long! Can anyone confirm this? Was there a separate line for the LE pins or was it all grouped together? This will probably be our only chance to go to WDW for many years, so we want to spend as much time as possible in the parks, riding rides, having fun... not standing in line for pins.

Should I just not get my hopes up for them, or was the estimate an exaggeration?

I've been trying to find out what time Jack/Sally came out. We are at the MK all day on 9/18 and want to know when to line up to have the shortest wait for them. They are the only characters that we are really interested in seeing (DD is now 25 and loves Jack and Sally). Any help would be appreciated.

I'm pretty sure someone said they were out at 5. If that is the case, I'd get in line around 4. You'll be right next to Sleepy Hollow refreshments, so maybe get some snacks and wait it out. If you are one of the first few in line you'll be done very quickly when they come out and you won't even be near the start of the party yet.

3 hours??
We waited in line for pins for about 15 minutes at Storybook Circus.The lines in the middle of the evening were a bit longer. I'd say maybe up to a half hour at one point. Lines were smaller later in the evening.

WHEW! Thanks for the reply, glad to hear that they were exaggerating.
Hope you had lots of fun at the party!

I know you said it earlier, but I have a terrible memory so please forgive me, but what time did you say you got in line for pins? We're definitely trying to get our hands on some merch...especially pins...when we go.

We got in line right before 5pm.

Awesome. Thanks!

We passed them at 5:30 and they were out already and the line was unbelievably long. We did not wait to see them.

We went around 9:45pm and there was maybe 3 people in front of us. Then some of us went at 11pm and again only a few people. When we went at around 7pm the line was very long. I would say about an hour - at least 50 people on line - and the line was just for pins - not shirts. You can buy the shirts at any register - just one for the pins. They did have 4 registers open though for the pins.

I meant to post earlier but we just got back last night and it has been a busy 3 days. As for the party and some questions I have seen: The lines for all the M&Gs were long so we just took pics of the characters in their Halloween garb. There were many people in costume and some were very elaborate. The peeps were green and only at Tom Sawyer's. Poison apple steins were at Sleepy Hollow. Vampire Mickey and Zero buckets were in Fantasyland and Main Street carts, but Zero was sold out in Fantasyland by the time I got there at 10-10:30 but not sure if they sold out at Main Street. No Werther's this year.

We had a great time. Our goal was the entertainment and candy so we skipped M&G lines & just took pics of the characters. The merchandise for the party was nice but not for me so I skipped getting any. I got the Vampire Mickey popcorn bucket and the Poison Apple stein. We also hit every treat stop, with the Tiki Room being a double stop and Storybook Circus being a triple stop. Both our bags were filled to the top. Caught all the shows and parades, along with a few rides. Hope we get to go again.

How busy is halloween night for the party? switched my tickets from the 30th to the 31st.

And we could not get a FP for 7DMT, will the lines be shorter during the party?

I'd really like to buy one of the Mickey pumpkin ornaments if they are still available in October. If they are (not getting my hopes up), would I go to the register to purchase one as well, or do they have them on display in the store? Also, which store are they in? Big Top Souvenirs in Storybook Circus?

So, is Storybook Circus the only place you can get the pins?

In the past it was sold out and quite busy. But this year nothing seems to have sold out. and thers no way of knowing yet if that means they incereased amounts or if peopel just think its too expensive.

Yes - the line was out the door and the CMs were telling people what the lines were for. It was only for pins. Go later and you will be fine.

I was told there was about 18,000 at the first party and that it was down from last year. Except 18,000 was pretty crowded for us if you wanted to meet characters. I heard all of the sales were down from last year except for Halloween.

No problem. They were at the Tom Sawyer Island Dock. Same as last year As far as I know that was the only place they were handing them out. It seemed to be a dedicated Peeps sponsored location and they only had the Peeps there. They were giving a handful of about 5 at a time. Hope that helps you.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. Somehow I've missed the Peep line every year, but not this time!
