With just a few sunsets until Halloween, we’re ushering in the night with a cauldron of costumed friends stepping out in their “haunt-couture” at Disney destinations around the world!
Whether it’s Mickey Mouse in a cape reminiscent of winged creatures found in the belfries of the Haunted Mansion at Walt Disney World Resort or Donald Duck in a “gourd-geous” pumpkin-inspired costume at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa – Disney’s costumed friends are dreadfully delightful this time of year.
Tonight, our friends from across the globe have unearthed some not-so-frightful styles of the season to end your day. Take a look at some Monday night “Costumed” magic:
Our look at costumed friends begins at the Walt Disney World Resort where Mickey Mouse and friends – and some favorite villains – are glowing and ghastly for Halloween.
At Aulani – a Disney Resort & Spa, everyone’s #1 feathered friend, Donald Duck, waddled his way into hearts dressed as an unforgettable jack o’ lantern.
For any “poor unfortunate souls” who didn’t know, Ursula and other Disney Villains can be seen lurking at Disneyland Paris this time of year – offering a screamingly good time!
Also at Disneyland Paris, Minnie Mouse was photographed in her most-colorful autumn attire!
Mickey Mouse and an eerily awesome Goofy dressed as a mummy were captured during an enchanting night aboard a Disney Cruise ship.
And a variety of spooky scallywags, rebellious rapscallions and bewitching buccaneers scare in style at Shanghai Disneyland Resort.
We hope you enjoyed this special series of costumed friends to end your day. Be sure to check back for more Disney Halloween surprises by visiting our new “Everything Halloween” page.

Disney Paper Parks: Happy Haunts Edition wraps up today with paper wearables inspired by the Haunted Mansion. Hitchhiking Ghosts masks, bat bow ties and more offer fun ways to style yourself and your family and friends for Halloween!
The activity sheets pair well with earlier releases of Disney Paper Parks: Happy Haunts Edition. Now you can add more exterior and interior details to your paper model of the Haunted Mansion attraction at Magic Kingdom Park, released in part three, including Madame Leota’s Séance Circle.
We hope you’ve enjoyed Disney Paper Parks: Happy Haunts Edition throughout the month of October. For best results, we recommend printing the activity sheets at their actual size, not scaling them to fit the page. We also recommend adult participation or supervision for those with little ones to help make this great activity even more enjoyable.
The sheets were created for the Disney Parks Blog by talented Imagineers Stephanie Jazmines and Amy Young, and require the use of scissors, glue and folding along dotted lines in specific directions. Imagineer Audrey Aronoff also helped with the design of the last two releases of Disney Paper Parks: Happy Haunts Edition.

If you’ve ever traveled to Walt Disney World Resort with children – or maybe even adults! – I’m sure you’ve heard that phrase once or a hundred times. Everyone’s just so excited to experience their favorite attraction or grab their best bite to eat, the trip can feel like it takes FOREVER.
When you stop and think about it for a moment, though, the very first bit of magic you experience is actually driving underneath the Walt Disney World gateways – those grand arches stretching over the roadways that tell you, yes, you’ve finally arrived at The Most Magical Place on Earth. You are here!
Starting today, these gateways to a Disney vacation are about to get some pixie dust as we begin to adorn them with a new color palette that complements the recent royal makeover of Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom Park. The rendering above gives you a first glimpse at what the entrances will look like when they’re finished; in addition, you’ll see these colors appear on the Magic Kingdom Park Auto Plaza as we bring a new shimmer to that iconic entryway.
These refreshed gateways will continue to set the tone for all the stories you’ll tell and the memories you’ll cherish long after your visit. They’re also part of the broad tapestry of new experiences happening across Walt Disney World as part of the resort’s historic transformation that includes expansive themed lands like Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, new attractions like Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, and new places to stay like Disney’s Riviera Resort.
Keep checking back with us here at the Disney Parks Blog for more updates on this exciting project and more as we continue to chronicle the transformation of The Most Magical Place on Earth!
