The company has teamed with the well-known retailer to launch this year’s Haunted Harvest Collection with fall and spooky season right around the corner!
It’s hard to believe that we’ll soon be saying goodbye to the lazy, hazy days of summer in Disney World and welcoming in fall (because fall always comes early in Disney World!). Although the weather is still screaming summer, we’ll soon be enjoying pumpkin spice drinks and snacks, and we can hardly wait.
Halloween in Magic Kingdom
That also means that a big change is coming to Magic Kingdom, and no, we’re not just talking about all the spooky Halloween-themed decor that will arrive any day now. We’re talking about another big change: the arrival of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party.
There are some important rules you NEED to know before heading to Disney Springs!
Disney Springs
From incredible dining to unique entertainment, there are TONS of things to enjoy at Disney Springs. But before you plan your visit, you’ll need to be prepared to follow these strictly enforced Disney Springs rules!
There are tons of ways to make your daily life a bit more magical.
The NEW Starbucks Tumbler
You can decorate your home with bits of Disney decor, you can watch the movies, and you can even plan your next trip just for fun, even if you don’t ever check out. (We LOVE doing that third one). Another way we love to do a bit of daily Disney is by drinking our coffee out of the cutest Disney tumbler. If you can’t get to the theme parks, Starbucks and Disney just launched a NEW one online.
If you’ve visited Tokyo Disney Resort recently, you may have figured out how to access Priority Pass, the resort’s FREE Fast Pass system that lets you book a return time for specific rides just like you might for Lightning Lane in Disney World and Disneyland, except that it’s free.
Fantasy Springs Arendelle castle in Tokyo Disney Sea
Well, that free system is going away on August 31st, and, instead, you’ll only have access to purchase Tokyo Disney Resort’s Premier Access, which currently allows you to pay to skip the line at specific rides. Premier Access will be rolled over to those rides that previously had Priority Pass.
Disney has lots of new cruise ships in the works to join their Disney Cruise Line fleet, and one of those is specifically coming to Japan!
Disney Wish
Disney has partnered with Oriental Land Company to create this Japanese section of Disney Cruise Line, with the cruise-specific part of the company being called ORIENTAL LAND CRUISE CO., LTD. We know the new ship is looking to set sail in 2029, but other than that, it’s been a while since we’ve heard any news about the new addition. Now, that’s all changed — we’ve got NEWS about this incoming ship, including how much it’ll cost per person!
Believe it or not, the time is NOW to start planning your 2027 Disney World vacation, including your next hotel.

However, be aware that not every Disney World hotel is created equal in 2027. Some have new perks and amenities to enjoy, while it may be wise to skip over a few others for the time being.
Hey friends (and foes, I suppose), it’s time for your favorite part of the week!
Let’s take a visit to the village!
That’s right, I’m taking you along with me to the Tiny Train Town in the Germany Pavilion at EPCOT! This little village is known for its heinous crimes and ridiculous nonsense, and I’m here as Madam Mayor today to unravel this week’s mysteries. Let’s go!
We recently took a trip to Dollywood, and we were seriously impressed with some of the things that this park offers!
Welcome to Dollywood!
From incredible food to unique souvenirs and well-themed attractions, Dollywood should definitely be on your to-do list if you’re planning a trip to the Smoky Mountains. And if you’re a Disney fan, there’s something Dollywood has that we’re SHOCKED Disney hasn’t implemented yet.
It’s become pretty clear that the future of Marvel seems to lie with more movies than TV shows, despite the fact that many Marvel TV shows have been successful with both audiences and critics alike. Sure, they all haven’t been as good as WandaVision, Moon Knight, Agatha All Along, or Loki, but without Marvel’s interest in doing TV shows, we wouldn’t have those incredible series.

Earlier this year, Wonder Man premiered on Disney+ and quickly became one of the most discussed Marvel TV shows during its season 1 run. The first season garnered critical and audience praise and gained a 91% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Disney eventually announced a second season for the series. Well, Disney has changed its mind, and according to Variety, season 2 of Wonder Man is no longer on the table.
