It may not even be Fall yet, but Halloween has arrived at the Magic Kingdom.

Halloween decorations started appearing the night of August 25th, as reported by a visitor who was in the Park with no Fall decorations on the 25th, and returned the morning of the 26th to find the Train Station festooned with orange buntings.

Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party began Friday, September 5th, at the Magic Kingdom. Mickey and Minnie have new costumes this year for the hard-ticketed after-hours event. Mickey, previously in a scarecrow costume, decided to go for something with more style this year: purple and orange evening wear fit for a Halloween Ball, complete with purple top hat and tails. Minnie exchanged her witch costume for a party dress to complement Mickey's classy attire, along with a fetching purple hat with orange accents.
