  • Will we see the Sanderson sisters at the Disneyland event?

  • Jennifer, my wife and I got to attend MNSSHP two years ago, and had a blast. We didn’t realize that so many adults also dressed up for this, there certainly were some amazing costumes there. The special parade was great, and we can’t wait until we can get back and enjoy the festivities again.

  • Jennifer, will the Pumpkin Spice Waffle Sundae be offered at Sleepy Hollow again this year?

  • Anyone going willing to get a sorceres game card for me?

  • MNSSHP is a Must-Do on our Disney trips in October! So fun!

  • No pumpkin spice waffle sundae???????????????

  • When can we expect to see a new MagicBand for this event? Will there be one? I’d love to purchase one over the other bands that are available, so i am just brimming with excitement.

  • I’m still waiting to find out if there will be a one day Memory Maker package available for the parties…I hope so!

  • Im so excited. I will be going to MNSSHP for the first time this year. Ill be going Sept 22 and 25. Looking forward to see all MNSSHP has to offer. Cant wait. See ya real soon!!!

  • I am sad to see the villain dance party that was in the diamond horse shoe is not making a come back this year. I felt like Club Villain was the best part last year.

  • A petty thing, but unless you’ve cut Jack Skellington from the Christmas party this year, the Halloween arty is not the “only” time you can meet him. Could you clarify if he will be at Christmas, too?

  • Can’t wait to attend this year! Already bought my ticket for sept 18th! 🙂

  • Will the stage show go on next Tuesday (first night!) due to castle construction? I’m worried!
