Life
Summer has flown by and fall will soon be upon us. This means getting to watch the leaves change color, breaking out all of your comfiest oversized sweaters, and enjoying all of the pumpkin and salted caramel flavored treats you can find. The arrival of fall also means that one very important day is approaching: Halloween. And, more importantly for Disney lovers, the arrival of fall means Disney Parks' Halloween merchandise is about to drop in a big way.
Halloween a holiday that transforms a lot with age, but Halloween-lovers know that the fun of it never really dies down — even years after your trick-or-treating days. When else will you have a perfect excuse to go out in an amazing costume or binge watch a ton of spooky movies? The holiday's approach means that stores, restaurants, and yep, amusement parks start to get into the haunted spirit and get out all their spookiest items to celebrate the holiday. Disney is one of the places that might just do Halloween the best — and they have the novelty souvenirs (at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland) to prove it. The park goes all out for Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party (also known as the happiest haunting on Earth), with parades, fireworks, and villains galore. What better way to commemorate your October Disney trip than with an adorably spooky souvenir to take home with you? Halloween doesn't get better than this.
