This year will be particularly exciting with several returning favorites and some all-new experiences, highlighted by the debut of the incredible new “Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular.”

Jack Skellington from Tim Burton’s “The Nightmare Before Christmas” serves as the host of this all-new nighttime show, with state-of-the-art projection effects, lasers, lighting and fireworks.

Several attractions across the park will receive special enhancements just for the Halloween party.

Imagineering has created Monster World at Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor. Here you’ll interact in with the comic cast of monsters, as they learn about the curious Human World holiday we call Halloween.

At Pirates of the Caribbean, you’ll discover a crew of live pirates on your journey, and this year they’re engaged in a whole new adventure in search of treasure.

Space Mountain goes completely dark again this year, and a new hard-rock soundtrack.

Mad Tea Party in Fantasyland, gets special lighting and music to give your experience some extra energy after dark.

There’s also the popular “Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular,” the ride of the Headless Horseman, “Mickey’s Boo to You Halloween Parade,” Monstrous Scream-O-Ween Ball and “Storybook Circus Disney Junior Jam,” where this year Nancy Clancy from the hit Disney Junior series “Fancy Nancy” joins other Disney Junior pals like Vampirina and Doc McStuffins.
