Halfway to Halloween

Halloween seems like forever away, but we are almost halfway there! Before we know it we will be celebrating all things not-so-spooky at Disney Parks and at home!
Disney loves to celebrate Halfway to Halloween. For the past few years, they have gone all out with fun activities to do at home and announcements for festivities taking place.
This week we have all the ghoulish news as we start counting down to Halloween at Walt Disney World.

Planning Tips: To help conjure your fiendish pursuits, note that in August, party dates occur on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. This is also true for September with the addition of one Thursday date on September 24. In October, ghouls can descend upon Magic Kingdom every Thursday; most Fridays, Sundays, most Tuesdays; and Saturday on Halloween.
Pricing varies per night, with the cheaper nights being August and September. October is the most expensive (and most crowded) month as fall break and Halloween, when guests arrive. Prices vary from $119 to $229 per ticket.
