We are all about grim grinning ghosts coming out to socialize, and they’ve been doing a lot of that this Halloween season at Disney World!
Hitchhiking Ghosts Loungefly Bag
We’ve been seeing those Hitchhiking Ghosts from the Haunted Mansion turning up everywhere — on bags, on ornaments, and magnets! We’ve even previously seen them on our food!
There is one ghostly item, though, that repeatedly pops up in the parks. We first saw the Phineas Hitchhiking Ghost Popcorn Bucket at Disneyland last year. And then we saw it at Disney World at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Soon after, he and his other hitchhiking pals became available all day throughout Magic Kingdom.

But Phineas won’t go away, and here we are, a little over a year later, and the popcorn buckets and sippers are still available throughout Magic Kingdom. And we have even seen the popcorn bucket used as sort of a place holder when other popcorn buckets sell out.
But Phineas is following us EVERYWHERE because you can also now get him at the snack carts at Disney Springs.

So if you haven’t yet nabbed this stubborn ghost as a popcorn bucket, you can get it for $18. And you probably won’t even have to look that hard for it! We love our sweet pal Phineas, but man, either the demand is really low or Disney made a TON of these buckets.
We’ll keep our eyes out for more Haunted Mansion stuff in the parks and let you know what we find!

I WOULD VENTURE TO SAY THAT THE REASON THE HITCH HIKING GHOST POPCORN BUCKET IS SO PLENTIFUL IS BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT BEING SOLD AT THE CLOSED DISNEYLAND RESORT. I AM SURE THESE TYPES OF PRODUCTS ARE MADE QUITE A WAYS IN ADVANCE. AND OF COURSE NO ONE COULD HAVE PREDICTED WHAT HAS TRANSPIRED IN THE LAST 8 MONTHS.
