Terrorific Night 2- 30th October 2010 (FNAC Party)

Its Michael Eisner, lurking in his favourite park
Or it could be early advertising for something like Hong Kong does for its Halloween events, it would be a more teenage/adult friendly Halloween event in the Studios, perhaps a scare zone by ToT

Don't mean to brag but...
Its great that they are doing a scarier event that wont be suitable for children, as Mickeys Not So Scary Party (or whatever its called) is designed for littl'uns

[tubbsy]

well spotted and a good call SM:M3! I think this is a fantastic idea
We'd considered going at Halloween this year but work hours etc, but I could see all of us doing MNSSP one night and then either me or hubby taking the teenager for this! Means everyone gets something

[bigrossco]

To me I think this is great news, I have always thoguht that DLRP should do something in the Studio's for Halloween mainly because of Tower of Terror sure will have a great setting for Halloween!

Is anyone planning to go? I so wish I could!

[DreamDisneyVacations]

Quite the teaser!

I think it's neat that DLP has an adults-only Halloween event. DLR doesn't offer anything like this. It's okay though, because other amusement parks offer scarier Halloween events. I'll just have to make a trip to DLP to see this!

Whilst I can see that most people are pretty happy about this event, I'm really not a fan of it. To me, Disney is something the whole family can enjoy, and Halloween in DLP is really good balance of spooky and fun. Creating a 'not for kids' event goes against Walt's vision (more than TSPL ) and just doesn't feel Disney to me.

I know people will say 'it's just for fun', I know, scare attractions are a big part of my job, it's very fun - but it's also not Disney. It's Halloween Horror Nights, Howl-O-Scream, Knotts Scary Farm. That is where teens can go, without children to enjoy the scary side of Halloween. In Europe you've got Fright Nights, Terenzi Horror Nights, Port Aventura's Halloween Festival, but Disney to me is where families go for a bit of a spooky party, which all can enjoy.

None of the Disney movies are horror, they do have creepy villains, but they're used in DLP and still have a big hint of family to them. I realise that Hong Kong did horror mazes which were recieved very well, but when I go to a Disney park I expect to be taken to a magical place where the unexpected happens (at Halloween, possibly some small spooky surprises), I definately don't expect to have to leave kids at home and be on my guard that there may be something terrifying waiting around that corner (that isn't Backlot Express rethemes).

Maybe it's just me, I know I used the family argument to defend TSPL, and I stand by that, this is the sort of non family event which is not Disney, and belongs elsewhere. They could most definately make a good movie themed Halloween event (Villains take over and make their own versions of the movies - Jafar taking over Carpets, Villains in Animagique, Hades in Armageddon), but an all out 'horror' party doesn't sit right with me.

Scissorsboi, if your post had a "like" button, I would have clicked it. I completely agree with your post! The idea of an "adults only" event is kind of cool, but it just isn't "Disney" and I said so on my site's Facebook page. But Disney is always trying new things and if it's a success, I can see why they would stick with it.

[davewasbaloo]

The difference between this and TSPL is this is one night after the park closes to the public. TSPL will be there for at least a generation (probably several).

[Tuvok]

Exactly. The Terrorific Night is a special 'once per year' event after normal operating hours. I'm also a fan of the Halloween in Disney-style (I'm goning to one of the Not-So-Scary parties this year). I'm the 'target-audience' for Terrorific Night, but I'm going to Disney for a Halloween festival in Disney-style, not Universal-style. It doesn't effect the normal Halloween festivities, so I think it's OK.

This is very good news but this is to short a period to be comercially viable I would have thought as their will not be enough money made to put significant investment in the project. To make more financial sense the weekend before Halloween it should be staged on the Friday and Saturday nights as well as halloween itself then more investment can be made in shows, Characters and mazes which could find a temp home on the unused land next to disney Channel.

Why the negativity about an adults only night for one night of the year after the park closes? DLRP are constantly criticised for not having any new ideas so this seems a sensible move to me, I was not going for Halloween this year as I think the event has been getting weaker and weaker year on year, but this event has made me think twice and I may now visit so a victory for Disney!
