Are you trying to sneak a creep at all the inside details of Disney World Halloween 2022?
Psssst… we have info on all the tricks and treats this season! From decorations and new merch to exclusive snacks, this Halloween is going to be magical!
Halloween is here! Well at least at Disney… Now that the Fourth of July is over it’s officially time to bring out the pumpkin spice! Disney loves to bust out festive decorations early, which I’m not complaining about. You will find Main Street of Magic Kingdom completely decked out in some new additions this year that replaced some classic touches, as well as some familiar spooky finds. There is no better Halloween than a Disney World Halloween!
A fan favorite is the pumpkin-headed scarecrows scattered throughout Main Street. Each of these scarecrows has an individual unique look and personality of its own.
Say hello to Cinderella pumpkin carriage wreathes! To find the familiar Mickey Jack O’Lanterns, look around the hub near the castle. The Cinderella wreathes this year include fall leaves in shades of orange, brown, yellow, red, and gold. These wreaths also include autumn sunflowers which add a beautiful floral touch.
The vintage horse-drawn carriage on Main Street U.S.A. has been upgraded with a crown of Autumn leaves, flowers, and bows. You can also see in the photo orange Autumn buntings on storefronts and balconies making it look like a little Halloween village.
Each spooky Jack- o’lanterns face is carved to represent the theme of the building where they sit. If you want to find out Where exactly to see the jack- o’lanterns check out this post.
But hurry… there are only a couple of dates left that have not sold out!
If you love the nightly Disney fireworks show then you will absolutely shake in your boots over Disney’s Not-So-Spooky Spectacular Fireworks show! The show tells a spooky tale of dancing skeletons, Disney heroes and villains, and ghosts. Watch these stories come to life in the sky! The show includes not only fireworks but Laser effects and projections.

Headless Horsemen, Villains, and gravediggers… Oh my! The Mickey’s “Boo-to-You!” Halloween Parade is back, it starts in Frontierland and ends on Main Street, U.S.A. You can catch the gaggle of spooky characters at 9:15 PM and 11:15 PM on party nights.

It’s no secret that Disney’s Halloween Merch is some of the coolest merch that Disney puts out, this year there is a nice variation of spooky goodies to deck yourself out in! This year the themes are:

Everyone loves a sweet treat! here are all the sugary treats that you can find around Magic Kingdom this Fall season. Some of these treats you can even find hidden in other parks such as Animal Kingdom 👀.
