No more pink witches!?! But they were so fun last year.

I'm glad the pumpkin men are back again, they were awesome. Do you think the Disney villain's Halloween show time will be like last years show or do you think they will change it slightly? I really enjoyed that show last year and its probably one of my favorite shows that I've seen at the resort.
Next visit to DLP: October 26th
Coaster Count: over 320

Do you think you can bring 'em here to the good ol' US of A?

Well the show will slightly change as their will be no more pink witches in it.  I also heard that 2 other villains might be added.

I'm going to have a wild stab in the dark and predict Queen Narissa from Enchanted!

Or Will there be some one more Classic? As I'm trying to think of the ones already in-place and am getting nowhere very fast!

Its a shame about the pink witches - loved their personality's!
I like the idea of bringing Jack and Sally to the parks, who knows in a few year's time we might be recieving the haunted mansion holiday

Does anyone have pics from the Halloween party from previous years??

I'm trying to convince my husband to go this year, I'm sure if he saw some pics he'd be easier to convince... I seem to remember seeing pics of the BTM light up and all...

I really want to go....

Sounds like a promising line up now that the Pink Witches have been given the boot. Halloween should always be about the Disney characters, I'm just happy to see that Management is finally starting to wake up to this fact. While the pumpkin men remain I can only hope in future years some of the decorations involving these characters gets pushed back a bit.

By the way thanks raptor1982 for confirming what I have already been hearing.

Thanks for those!! Love the one with Skull Island...

I've been for Halloween, but never for the party of the 31st... And now seeing that Jack and Sally are going to be there, I really really really want to go!! Big fan of Nightmare before Christmas  :jack:

Will they also have fireworks at the end?
