From August 22nd to October 31st, 2025, Disneyland Resort is set to be transformed into a spooktacular Halloween wonderland! Anticipate the return of all things magical and Halloweenish as the resort is overrun with autumnal sights, sounds, and tastes. Look forward to the reappearance of classic decorations such as warm orange lighting, bunting, falling leaves, and an abundance of pumpkins that would make any count exhausted!

This Halloween, Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, and their pals will don vibrant new costumes with whirling hues of purple, green, and orange – a fun spin on the ensembles they wore for their 70th anniversary celebration! Don’t forget to greet them cheerfully and capture the moment in a photo.

At Disneyland, the enchanting Haunted Mansion Holiday experience invites you into a realm where Halloween’s chilling allure intertwines with Christmas’s radiant sparkle. This is an absolute must-visit for enthusiasts of “Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas”, as it offers a chance to reconnect with Santa Jack, Sally and Zero within the mysterious manor.

Experience “Halloween Screams,” an evening extravaganza brimming with spine-tingling visuals and extraordinary effects that depict nighttime creatures and villains such as Hades and Ursula from Disney. Are they inherently wicked, or simply misconstrued? On certain evenings, your adventure might be heightened by fireworks illuminating the skies above Disneyland.

Exploring the spine-tingling tales and exhilarating adventures, Disney’s Spookiest Stories Guided Stroll takes you on a captivating two-hour journey through Disneyland park. This tour offers special access to a chosen attraction via the FastPass lane and reserved seating for “Halloween Screams.

In the evenings at Avengers Campus, remember to stop by Guardians of the Galaxy – Monsters After Dark.

Join Rocket and your friends on an exhilarating adventure where you’ll need to work together to divert these creatures while rescuing Groot before they manage to catch you!

Something exciting is happening at the Disney Theater, and it’s perfect for both young and old… it’s Mickey Mouse and his friends donning costumes to celebrate Halloween in the show titled “Mickey’s Trick or Treat“.
