So thank you so much. My fav. part are the grave diggers, to me they are so cool. I woner if they sell on DVD the parade, villians mix and mingle and the Hallowishes? I'd buy that is they do.

We then relaxed some and was told they would start letting us in on our hard ticket at 5:00- and they did. So we were there from 5-12 with a much smaller corwd and to me I still seemed like I got more than my monies worth as it is less than a 1 day admission -and about the same as the average cost when you buy a longer stay. The lessened crowds and extra themeing made it more than worth while. gone are the days when I want to be in the park 15 hours + a day anyway -- too much other stuff to do as well

Originally Posted By vbdad55 almost everything was open - certainly everything we wanted--- they print a handout with what's opne--PLUS they add things like in Fantasyland they set up somewhat like Playhouse Disney with a DJ and dance session for the kids (all people were dressed in Pirates outfits and characters stopped by.... plus they hand out treasure ! OK- it's a small black felt bag they give you with Pirates and Princesses in gold on it- and each station gives either andy or colored beads etc.--- and there were 'street performances' sticking to the theme -- I found it to be well worth it. Now I would say paying for a days in the parks - then paying again would take a little shine off- but using that day for waterpark or DTD and then just doing the 5-12 deal- I was pleasantly pleased

Without kids, if you can live without going on rides and avoiding getting average candy after waiting in long lines {that do move pretty fast}, then save your money for admission to Boo To You party. Shop, watch parade, watch fireworks, and especially the people/costume watching are delightful. The variety of costumes was amazing. Very few duplicates, a joy to sit and watch. Highlight for me.....a picture with Stitch! Not bad for a 56 year old geezer!!

After the I think 10pm parade the park starts to empty out and you can ride pretty much anything without a wait and most everything is open. Plus there are villians everywhere that you don't get to see any other times and they also seem alot more playful and relaxed. We got a great picture one year with Snow White and all 7 dwarfs.
