Court Jester Mickey and Knight Donald

THIS is where Halloween is in FULL SWING… and the gang’s ALL HERE — and in their festive best — to celebrate! We’re checking out what’s NEW in the park (with help from some of our best Disney pals!), and we hope you’ll join us along the way for even more festive fall fun!

Oh, and when we say “the gang’s all here…”

Magic Kingdom Food Updates

Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Cafe

Though we didn’t mosey on into Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Café (even though it was hard to pass up those orange and black Churros they’re serving up right now), we did mosey on BY it… and we noticed something a little different.

Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Cafe

The entrance has been changed, and for now guests are entering the restaurant from the side (just across from Golden Oak Outpost).

The change was made to help in physical distancing efforts, to avoid crowding at the usual entrance and provide room for the Halloween Character Cavalcades, which have proved to be quite popular.

I’m sure you can see why!

Disney Villains Cavalcade

The Character Cavalcades which made their debut upon the reopening of the theme parks are terrific treats all the time. But with special seasonal appearances by Disney Villains, characters from Nightmare Before Christmas, and our Disney pals in their Halloween costumes…

Eeyore in Costume!

… well, they’re unusually spooktacular right now!

Disney Villains Cavalcade

We’ve been having SO MUCH FUN spying even more Halloween Costumes for our Disney friends as the season continues…

Hi from Court Jester Mickey!

Knight Donald

See VIDEOS of the Halloween Character Cavalcades here!

Well, I’m sure you can understand why we get a little distracted . Anyhoo… back to one of our favorite eateries!

Sleepy Hollow Refreshments

Just a little note that over at Sleepy Hollow Refreshments, we learned that the uber-popular Madame Leota Sippers are STILL sold out!

Madame Leota Sipper Cup

We sure hope she’ll materialize again soon…

Awaken the spirits… and see the Madame Leota Sipper here!

Magic Kingdom Attraction and Construction Updates

Magic Kingdom Entrance

Work continues at the entrance to the park, where we’ve been keeping an eye on the area where the Grand Floridian Walkway just might connect Resort guests to the front of Magic Kingdom.

Park Entrance Construction

Peter Pan’s Flight

Back inside the park we’re heading over to Fantasyland with a stop at Peter Pan’s Flight.

Peter Pan’s Flight queue

This next photo gives you a pretty good look at the new plexiglass that has recently been added within the queue for the attraction.

These are intended to help maintain safe distancing between guests while they await their magical flight.

TRON Construction

Of course, it’s not a Magic Kingdom construction update without checking in on the construction for TRON!

With the huge structures being added at a quick pace…

… you may not notice that there’s something missing right about here.

Train Tracks area

That’s right… tracks for the Walt Disney World Railroad are currently missing as construction continues.

Magic Kingdom Merchandise Updates

Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe

Don’t get me wrong, we are LOVING the Halloween happenings around here. But we’re going to switch holiday gears a bit as we steer into Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe in Liberty Square.
