And Nov 21 is now sold out.

Is this a sign of lower demand for the party as a whole or just an off night? Certainly parties not sellling out will be a point of concern for WDW. Maybe it could lead to improved offerings next year?

Yeah this will be a first in a while if it doesn't sell out. There is still time though

Interesting that tomorrow’s party still has availability. Has there been a Halloween or Christmas party that hasn’t sold out in recent years?

History and public sentiment disagrees with you on park based entertainment declining starting in the 1980s... If anything, up until that point non-third-party or atmospheric entertainment on both coasts was rather lacking - for 25+ years if you wanted to see any kind of Disney put on entertainment you were effectively limited to Kids of the Kingdom-style shows, all the way up until, really, MGM opened and things started to get experimented with in terms of stage shows (and even then it took until Dick Tracy in Diamond Double Cross to get anything close to the shows we see still being staged internationally). Things didn't start to decline until 2001 when Eisner shut down the "fiefdom" (his words not mine) that was Walt Disney Entertainment and brought all in park entertainment under operational control within each park instead of having an independent executive level part of the company dedicated to it and other live entertainment ventures. As someone who has written about this academically and otherwise, some of the only in-depth material really available on the subject of the history of Disney's live entertainment within the parks, I know about this far too much... It's really quite sad because DLE was neutered specifically because folks in park ops were unhappy entertainment was getting a good amount of money out of Eisner and his successors, and it's spiraled from there. And that's about 90% of your issue. If entertainment had priority again, we would see some really good efforts.

One time use. It's how they get you to renew your AP every year to keep stencils in stock.

It's a freebie...how durable does it need to be? Make a batch of cookies, use it and you are done... I think the days of very nice giveaways are long gone... Magnets, recipe cards...these sort of paper goods will be the new normal...but they don't really have to give away anything...we obviously continue to pay for our passes...

And how useful is a thin paperboard stencil for making cookies? I think it says something about "reusable" on the envelope but I wonder how reusable they will end up being. At least the silicone stencils are washable.

We don’t need the stencils but my kids were extremely enthusiastic about the Num Num cookies and beignet recipes.
