Something NEW just debuted at Disney World’s Halloween party and we think you’re gonna love it!
We’ve had a ton of fun kicking off this season’s first Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween party and checking out all the eats, treats, spooky entertainment, and rare character meet and greets we could get around to in one night. But, if you’ve already attended one of this year’s parties, this party exclusive may be the thing to make you book another trip sooner than you expected!
If you’ve been considering a trip to Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party this year at Disney World we may have just found the right leverage to make you actually snag those tickets soon! These parties are held throughout the late Summer through the Fall season in Magic Kingdom on select nights as a special ticketed event not included with regular park admission. The parties start at 7PM and end at 12AM but, party guests can enter the park as early as 4PM with just the party ticket (giving you an option to start getting in a few rides or snacks before the festivities start).
These parties are a hit year after year due to their immensely popular party exclusives which include whole lines of merchandise. We just can’t seem to help ourselves when it comes to good Disney Halloween merch! We were stunned to find out that Disney World dropped the Mickey pumpkin popcorn bucket after initially stating it would be found in Disneyland for this Halloween season. Isn’t he just adorable?!
But, that’s not the only playful “trick” Disney World seemed to have up its sleeve! Just days ago, Disney also teased that a 2nd party-exclusive popcorn bucket would become available during MNSSHP and of course, we had to go see what all the fuss was about! After standing in line for hours before the party officially started, we finally were met with our “treat”!
If this little guy looks familiar that’s because you’ve probably briefly seen him featured in Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. Scary Teddy seems to have been a hit on his debut day as we overheard several disappointed partygoers noting they were sold out before they had a chance to snag one.
He’s truly a sight to behold and much larger than we anticipated from the promotional picture! The arms and legs move to a seated and out front position making him somewhat posable. While the Scary Teddy popcorn bucket doesn’t light up, the friendly Cast Member who introduced his appearance in the line did explain that the eyes and teeth can glow after being in direct light for a bit.
The top half of his head leans back (a la Stitch style) to reveal your golden popcorn cavern to scoop your snack out of…
…and there are also a few notable characters from the movie on the carrying strap…
…plus his backside includes a long cape!
We figured this little guy would be a smash hit at only $26 to purchase and we’re glad we didn’t wait too long to get a peek at him before they were all sold out. These popcorn buckets are sold ONLY during MNSSHP while supplies last and the Cast Members did tell us that there is a limit of 2 per popcorn bucket style per wristband in each transaction.
We’ve checked out everything there is to see, do, and taste at Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party.

I love the first photo in this article, with the Mickey jack-o-lantern light pole and Cinderella’s castle in the background. It is an interesting shot. We’ll done, whomever took that Pic.
