I was not expecting to visit the Magic Kingdom that Fall day when I happened to be staying at Disney’s Contemporary Resort for a social media conference. Everything about the trip was spontaneous, so when I found myself with a free evening, I quickly perused the internet for tickets to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at the Walt Disney World Resort. It was 4 days before Halloween and with just a few single tickets left, I decided that I could not leave Orlando without experiencing this special nighttime, Halloween event.
