Does anyone know if there will be a Halloween Brunch at Inventions on the 31st?

BTW,  does the 'harvest' cavalcade replace the character train that usually runs down main street throughout the day?

What I'm actually asking, 'in disguise'  :) is do we get to hear the 'do you believe magic song at all during halloween (i think it still runs with the train at the moment?)

With that in mind, the Happy happy happy happy halloween song used to replace the tous en trian in previous years, which admittedly, I must confess I am addicted to and can never get this cycle out my bloomin head! ... just to remind you and see if you can't get this out of your head for the rest of the day....  :D

I've never been for Halloween, always go for Christmas, but it strikes me Disney do far more decorating for Halloween than Christmas. Maybe I need to change my travel plans.

Ive been to the Halloween party a few years ago...Its amazing to see also a must :)

Oh thank you very much ;) I not only have this tune running through my head but it has reminded me of a couple of others. I now have a continuous loop of this, Its a small world and Chante Cest Noel.

....Hey everyone.... looks like they released a new ad for the Halloween season (live-action, but pretty cool?:)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMFYpJ0qQdc

...you can also 'Join the gang' and get your own villain card to print off - I was Cap'n Hook:).... nice novelty for the kids maybe, you could print off for them, maybe  even laminate if you find yourself with nothing to do :)

...obviously, as usual, they didn't have the budget to do the animation that the states ad gets, but I think it's still good and am started to get quite excited ;D

Jimtrim, The train has not been used for over a year now! It was used during the 20th ann for that year, but is now waiting in a warehouse for it's next coat of paint to give it a new incarnation! So no do you believe in magic I'm afraid.

I really like both adverts.

I really like the DLP live advert though. I think it works really well and showcases the beauty of our park. It's nice to see DLP have the effort to make adverts like this. It wouldn't have been cheap to make.

I've renamed this as our official topic for Halloween!

The first Programme is out:



DLP Today — See the first 10 days of Disney's Halloween 2014 events and times in new Programme

And in case anyone missed them, the concept art for Maleficent's Court and the new "Raise the Rafters!" parade float:



Halloween: Maleficent's dragon-sized briar about to entwine Castle Courtyard



New Mickey's Halloween Celebration "Raise the Rafters!" float revealed – concept art

What's everyone most excited for this year?

Everything!  ;D
Seriously, this is going to be my first Halloween-visit. I love Disneyland and I love Halloween. So I am really excited about everything.
I would just love to feel the atmosphere, I want to see Jack Skellington (one of my favorite characters!) and I think it will be nice to see some more of the Disney villains!  :)

I'm actually looking forward to the scheduled music - brass band/orchestra...
I know DLP have had small bands and acts before frequently around the park and sometimes/often in the frontierland restaurants, but I have just seemed missed them in the past   ::) - ... so I'll make a point of going there at the scheduled times this time  ;D

I'm looking forward to everything!
Halloween is my number one favorite season at DLP, I've been experiencing it for so many years now.
After a serious letdown in 2012, they kicked back last year with a fantastic season.
And this year seems to be getting even better.

As a huge Maleficent fan I'm incredibly happy that this year's Halloween season is mostly based around her.
I'm also a big fan of all the other villains, so I'm really looking forward to The Maleficent Disney Villains Promenade as well as Maleficent's Court.
Next to the Villains I'm pretty much obsessed with The Nightmare Before Christmas, so I'm also really excited for my annual date with Jack Skellington!
And also just seeing the fantastic Mickey's Halloween Celebration, and all the decorations.
