It wouldn’t be Halloween Time at Disneyland without Haunted Mansion Holiday. This attraction is a beloved park tradition. Keep your eyes peeled for that gingerbread house in the ballroom.

Every Halloween night at Disneyland, you can take in the supernatural sights and sounds of “Halloween Screams.” This nighttime spectacular is known for its projections, lights, and weekend fireworks show. 

Don’t forget to get a photo in front of the giant Mickey pumpkin on Main Street, U.S.A. You truly can’t miss it.
