News:We finally have official confirmation of the new villains at this year’s Oogie Boogie Bash. Dr. Doofenshmirtz from Phineas and Ferb is meeting and greeting in the Disney Jr. theater, and Hades, replacing Cruella in the Hollywood Pictures Backlot. Dr. Doofenshmirtz has received mixed-to-negative reviews on the look of the face character’s execution. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_otONSuoDo
Every holiday season, the culinary team at Disneyland brings us the Haunted Mansion Holiday Gingerbread House. The Disney Parks Blog posted a behind-the-scenes look at what it took this year to bring the gingerbread house to life, and how the design came about. Head on over to the link in our show notes to see all the details. - https://disneyparksblog.com/dlr/disney-eats-the-making-of-the-haunted-mansion-holiday-gingerbread-house/
Downtown Disney has some new and relocated decor for the season. Some of the decor from the Mickey and Friends Tram route have come to Downtown Disney. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/
Magic Key holders have a lot of perks at the moment for the holidays. A new exclusive trading card will be released each week from August 26th through September 19th on Monday through Thursday. A Magic Shot featuring Yzma from The Emperor’s New Groove is by the Matterhorn August 19th through September 14th. Finally, a combo photo op, candy, and commemorative patch featuring Hades is under Silly Symphony Swings during Oogie Boogie Bash. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/ https://mouseinfo.com/2024/08/magic-key-perk-all-2024-halloween-time-freebies-purchase-opps-more/#google_vignette
Construction will soon begin on the expanded Avengers Campus early next year, so some clearing needs to happen backstage. Unfortunately, one of the (hopefully) temporary casualties of this is the Red Car Trolly. The maintenance barn for the trolly is where the new Avengers Infinity Defense attraction will be constructed, so it needs to be taken down. No word on if the Red Car Trolly will return. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/
A missing treat has returned to Disney California Adventure! The Choco Smash Bar was taken off the Pym Test Kitchen menu last year, replaced by the cake version. The candy bar version is back, joining the cake version as an option. - https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/08/25/a-missing-disney-snack-is-back/
Magic Happens had it’s last performance recently, and in it’s place is a new offering. The Halloween Cavalcade is a short production with a couple of Main Street vehicles and a float with characters in their Halloween costumes. There are also quite a few walking characters as well. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/
Some quick construction updates from around the resort. The Haunted Mansion extended queue is starting to take shape with the main walls of the new section looking pretty far along in construction. The gift shop at the end of the attraction has begun vertical construction. The transformation into Bayou Country from Critter Country is progressing nicely, along with Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, which is testing off and on. Finally, the Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree has a new sign and the refurbishment of the dining area looks to be wrapping up. - https://www.micechat.com/395538-disneyland-update-construction-tricks-and-halloween-treats/ https://youtu.be/0jYcPQlCRK0?si=lXt0TI9uAK1ixMzj https://www.micechat.com/383350-disneyland-update-rainy-days-reveals-and-reinventions/
