Disney World’s Halloween Boo to You Parade

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party at Disney’s Magic Kingdom is a longstanding annual event that transforms the park into a trick-or-treater’s paradise. One of its iconic highlights is the Boo to You Parade, a spooky performance that only happens during the event. Featuring Disney characters, villains, and eerie floats, the parade kicks off with the Headless Horseman’s ride down Main Street, U.S.A. It’s a great experience for young kids and families who love Halloween and want to get some candy while enjoying the park.

However, it wasn’t the Headless Horseman who stole the show at the premiere. A Disney World employee decided to provide her own solo parade performance, complete with her infectious passion and spontaneous dance moves. People often revel in the negativity swirling around Disney as a company lately, but it is lovely to see there is still some Disney magic and fun in its cast members.
