Disney Parks went Live last night for Mickey's Boo to You Halloween Parade. This is probably my favorite parade at Disneyworld. I love seeing the characters in their costumes, the villains, the gravediggers, & most of all the Headless Horseman. I will say this though, I remember the year we went, the horseman came barreling through at top speed. It was a pretty intimidating sight. It seemed like he came through a little slower this time around, but at least everybody gets a better look at him. Awesome parade though. If you can't get out here to see it, definitely watch this live stream. You also get to see Vampirina's WDW introduction. She's hanging out for Halloween before she becomes a part of Hollywood Studios. My littlest LOVES Vampirina. So, needless to say, when she heard the music she came runnin. She's super excited, & I'm glad she got to see them make this big deal about the addition of her new favorite character. Anyway, check it out, & let me know what your favorite part was.

If You Can't Make It To Disneyland For Halloween, This Is A Taste Of What We're Missing
Disneyland put up this little montage of what to expect at Disneyland & California Adventure this Halloween Time, & it's definitely no Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. A couple of the things look legitimately creepy. Like whatever the heck that is after the shot of Space Mountain. Also, a lot of the rides are themed out for the occasion. The Haunted Mansion has been totally re-hauled as Nightmare Before Christmas, Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout has changed the whole adventure, Cars Land is throwing a Haul-O-Ween, & that's just the biggest changes. I loved the Not-So-Scary Party when we went, but after seeing this I'm hurt to say Disneyland may be doing it better. I can only tell from the videos & pics I've seen, but this looks amazing. I love the extent it looks like they go through to change the whole atmosphere. Especially the ride overhauls. I see myself planning this trip in the future. What do y'all think? In fact, if you've been to Not-So-Scary, what do you think in comparison? Put it in the comments, like, & share.
Disneyland Gives A Closer Look & This Is No Gingerbread House, It's An Edible Audio-Animatronic!!
I had been seeing pictures for awhile of this Nightmare Before Christmas inspired Haunted Mansion gingerbread house. When I first saw it I thought it was really cool just due to it's shear size. It's enormous, I would love to take a picture with my littlest standing by it. She'd probably almost fit inside it. Disneyland put out this video showing the massive task of building this thing in time-lapse, & then this thing went from cool to amazing. Like it says in the title, it's not just a gingerbread house. This thing's an edible audio-animatronic. There's stuff moving all over this thing from the bugs to Oogie Boogie in the background. I wish this thing wasn't on the west coast. I really would love to check it out in person. I'll never look at a gingerbread house the same. What do y'all think? Could y'all eat this, or is it just too pretty?

If You Haven't Seen The "Boo To You" Parade At Not-So-Scary Halloween, They Streamed It, & It's Awesome
I've actually got to attend this parade. Now, I'm not usually a parade person when it comes to Disneyworld, but when I went this thing was started off by the Headless Horseman barreling through the streets with his flaming pumpkin on his black horse. I don't know if they do this anymore, as it's not shown in this video as the opening, but I will say it was a sight to see, that really got my attention. The parade features the Disney characters donning costumes along with prominently featuring the villains, who's floats are awesome I might add. It's your standard parade stuff other than that except for the gravediggers. The gravediggers are friggin' awesome. They have a choreographed "dance" that involves them scraping their shovels on the concrete to produce sparks. It's probably the coolest sight I've seen in a Disney parade. I'm so glad Disney Parks are streaming all these things for those that don't get to see them. If you think they look cool on video though, they're even more amazing in person. Check out the video, & not only do I want to know what you think, but what's your favorite Disney parade? Put it in the comments, like, & share.
