Do I have your attention, The Nightmare Before Christmas fans? Your Pumpkin King is taking over Disney World with a very special popcorn bucket and sipper for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!
Okay, so it seems impossible, but July is almost over and August will be here SO SOON. And you know what that means — the beginning of spooky season in the theme parks.
Universal Orlando Halloween Horror Nights
Now, we’re obviously looking forward to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party in Disney World, but we’re also looking to scream in terror at Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights, which brings some of our favorite horror movie and TV franchises to life with scare zones and haunted houses. Well, we just visited Universal Orlando’s Universal Studios Florida…and guess what? Preparations are already underway for Halloween Horror Nights!
We’ve got great news for Disney California Adventure fans who are planning to visit the park for this Halloween season!
Villains Grove
Oogie Boogie Bash is a BIG hit each and every year, and we don’t think 2025 will be any different. One of the offerings we look forward to at each party is Villains Grove over at Redwood Creek Challenge Trail. It’s a great way to meet some of your favorite villains in a slightly spooky way, but it does mean the trail has to close about a month in advance of the party to get it ready. Thankfully, we now know when the trail will officially be reopening!
It might still be summertime, but we’re gearing up for the Halloween season, and of course, that means a trip to Disneyland Resort to visit Oogie Boogie Bash!
Oogie Boogie Bash
The popular event is returning for 2025, and Disney has shared details on what sort of frightful fun we can expect at this year’s party. Mark your calendars for select nights from August 17th to October 31st, because a NEW Villain has joined the character lineup!
Spooky season is almost here, and along with it is a slew of new novelties at Disneyland!

Boo to you, and you, and you, and you!
