It’s almost a requirement to get your family photo in front of Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom when on your vacation to the Walt Disney World Resort, but did you know there’s much more to see inside the castle? Unless you’re lucky enough to win a night in the Cinderella Castle Suite or scored reservations at Cinderella’s Royal Table, you may not even be aware that you are able to walk through the castle at all. As much as I love walking through the castle, it’s not something we’re able to manage every trip due to the timing of frequent closures that occur when shows are taking place near the castle.

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, held on select nights through the fall at Magic Kingdom, is tons of fun overall, but the crown jewel of it is the Boo to You Parade.

There is nothing like Halloween at Disney World. My favorite holiday by far, Halloween is something deeply ingrained in my heart, but being in Disney for it awakened that love to a new level. If you have the incredible good fortune to be heading to Disney during a time when Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party is in swing, I can’t stress enough how much I recommend buying tickets to go.
