Hitchhiking Ghosts at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party
Posted: Saturday August 10, 2024 8:07pm ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

New at this year's Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is an appearance by the Haunted Mansion's Hitchhiking Ghosts.

Ezra, Phineas, and Gus appear as character sighting opportunities above Frontierland's Country Bear Musical Jamboree.

The Hitchhiking Ghosts are among the most iconic and beloved characters in the Haunted Mansion attraction at Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World. These three spectral figures appear toward the end of the ride, seemingly trying to "hitchhike" their way out of the mansion with the guests.

They have a certain allotment for each party, but they sell out almost immediately. You'll want to be at Sleepy Hollow right as the party begins (if not before in the long line it'll have) to get one.

Can anyone tell me if the Minnie Sanderson Sister sipper cups are sold out yet or do they just bring a new batch out each party night? Thanks!

I was there last night... near total washout. The CM's were amazing, but a whole lot of stuff got cancelled for the rain. Everyone's ticket was converted to a one-day park hopper good for a year, although everyone received a card with a number to call if they wanted to put their ticket toward an open party night. One observation... The area music was all over the place. In particular, they managed to get "Laughing Place" on the loop near Tiana's, and the full Davy Crockett tune plays in Frontierland (among other things that don't generally play during the daytime hours...). Whoever came up with the Pirate DJ for Adventureland may need to take a breather or to start working for SeaWorld. ETA: I don't want to hear the phrase "Rainy Day/Night Cavalcade" again, nor do I want to line up to wait for such a thing. The family standing next to me told me they waited 45 minutes for the late Boo to You... and we all ended up with three trucks, a banner, and a trailing rope.

Easily the best bite of our trip! It's at Auntie Gravity's in Tomorrowland! It's listed as Candy Corn, but it tastes much more like a cornbread flavor. They have a sundae version with a butterscotch topping and sprinkles, but I went with just the standard cup. I love all things corn, and this blew my expectations out of the water.

Seems Halloween is really catching on in Orlando. I'd expect these to go twice as fast when the Villain's land is open. Just had a wonderful party on Monday, and couldn't recommend more if you're considering any of the remaining dates. It's easily my favorite way to experience the Magic Kingdom. Don't skip the corn soft serve!
