Originally Posted By CuriousConstance Here is some good info I found: "Halloween Time Returns September 12 to October 31 Disneyland has released the much-anticipated HalloweenTime schedule for 2014, confirming the return of seasonal attractions like Haunted Mansion Holiday and Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy, and the Dia de los Muertos celebration in Frontierland. The announcement makes reference to "famous Disney Villains," and seeing "Mickey Mouse and his friends in Halloween costumes," so it's a safe bet that the Halloween Carnival is returning to the Big Thunder Ranch Jamboree. Disneyland is hosting Mickey's Halloween Party on 14 nights in 2014. Ticket prices jumped by $3 over the 2013 event, with most nights now going for $70 per person, and the Halloween night event priced at $77 per person. Passholders save $7 off the advance purchase price (down from $8 last year) on selected event nights. Disney has not confirmed if the popular Toontown pre-party will return for the 2014 event. Tickets go on sale July 16 for Annual Passholders, Disney Vacation Club members and Disney Visa cardholders. The general public can buy tickets starting July 30. Tickets will be available for purchase online; dates and (day-of, advanced purchase, and annual passholder advanced purchase) Based on past years, we expect tickets for the Friday, October 3 event to sell out first. This is the only October Friday night event eligible for the Annual Passholder and advanced purchase discounts. The October 10 event (CHOC Walk weekend), and the October 17 event (UEA school break) will probably sell out before the end of September. As Halloween is a Friday night this year and not a Thursday school night as it was in 2013, that date will likely be very popular. None of the event dates sold out until the first week of September last year, but it's not a bad idea to buy the tickets as soon as you pick a date and avoid any disappointment. Disney does not post warnings when event dates are reaching capacity, and every year readers get caught off guard when their chosen date sells out before they can get tickets."

Originally Posted By LacyBelle August 25 seems about right. The past few years the HM has closed the Monday prior to Labor Day. They need the full three weeks to complete the overlay before Halloweentime starts on September 12. When Halloweentime started at the end of September, I believe the closure would start after Labor Day. Since the 'season' has been moved up to begin in med-September the past few years, the closure is in late August.
