Must-Do Attractions for Halloween
When visiting Disneyland Paris during Halloween, there are a number of attractions that are ideal for immersing yourself in a terrifying atmosphere. I recommend starting with Phantom Manor and The Tower of Terror, which offer thrills in a spooky setting. For a gentler but just as immersive experience, don’t miss Pirates of the Caribbean and the mysterious caves nearby, as well as Snow White to see the witch, which will take you through magical and slightly unsettling moments.
For the record, do you know the terrifying story behind the Phantom Manor attraction? If not, I invite you to discover it in my dedicated article before your visit. There you’ll learn all about the dark and mysterious legend that makes this attraction so captivating.
Stores with special Halloween products
To celebrate Halloween at Disneyland Paris, certain accessories are a must! In the park, you’ll find a variety of decorations, costumes, candy and souvenirs featuring your favorite Disney characters. These products are generally available from September until the end of the Halloween season at several stands and boutiques in the park, including :
- Thunder Mesa Mercantile Building in Frontierland,
- Emporium on Main Street U.S.A,
- World of Disney at Disney Village.
For those who want to shop away from the park, you can also find a wide range of products on the Disney Store website.
Where to eat terrifying snacks for Halloween
For Halloween, Disneyland Paris offers every year a variety of delicious sweet and savory treats, beautifully decorated in Halloween colors to please every taste.
You can usually find them throughout the park, but to make sure you don’t miss anything, head to Boardwalk Candy Palace or Victoria’s Home Style Restaurant on Main Street U.S.A, Lucky Nugget Saloon in Frontierland, or Annette’s Diner in Disney Village.
These spots are perfect for enjoying Halloween-themed snacks and drinks.
If you’re staying in a Disney Hotel, don’t miss the hotel bar, where you’ll often find special festive cocktails created for the season.
