Originally Posted By John_CM Well, last year, on the way out of the park, after seeing the film and taking a ride on the mansion, they handed you a glow in the dark Nightmare pillow case. From there, you walked along the Rivers of America and down through Adventureland, Main Street, etc. Every once in awhile there was a trick or treat station. They gave you a bunch of nightmare goodies to put into your sack. The Jack light-up necklace they sell at the park, a pack of Nightmare trading cards, scary teddy button, small Jack flashlight, bag of M&Ms, Jack paper mask, and at the very end, the event pin,. The pin BTW has gone for $50 by itself. I felt it was definitely worth it last year and it was $50. This year it's only $35 and I've already got my tickets. Hopefully they'll have some new gifts this year! Of course this was all in addition to the free food included, and the bag of interactive stuff for the movie, and a Nightmare seat cushion.

Originally Posted By mickeymousears question: for this event are you allowed to roam disneyland, or they kick you out after the screening? if you can roam... how late are they open? and where do they show the film? underlying question: is it worth the 8 hour drive? and should i bring my sis-in-law who has never been to DLand before?
Originally Posted By lemisfan 999HAUNTS i had an idea on how to do oggie boggie. basically were a really big potato sack or something along those lines and paint my face green and black with glow in the dark face paint and i would put someon the costume too. but i dont think they will allow that kind of costume seeing its hard to walk in.

I wish i had $35 to spend to see NBC again, the special sounvenirs sound really nice. Anyone that goes.. post TRs in the correct LP section for those of us that couldn't go.. please? -- <a href="http://dumptv.com/disneychat" target="_blank">http://dumptv.com/disneychat</a>

Last year the only ride open was the mansion, you got to ride it as many times as you wanted (we did it thrice)... They had the characters out as well... worth an 8 hour drive? probably not. But if you're a big fan of the movie, maybe. The interactive screening was mega-fun! and some of the added "effects" were a wonderful bonus!

Originally Posted By John_CM Hey, I have a question. I was going to bring a friend with me to the Nightmare screening but now it looks like she can't go. And I registered her under her name, with my credit card. Does anyone know if I can call and substitute a different guest? Or do I just have to call and cancel and they'll take somebody else from the waiting list? And, I can't find the phone # anywhere.. hehe.. It's not in any of the material I have about the event. Who should I call? Thanks in advance!
