A Halloween meal

It's October 31st 1939 and the food is almost ready to eat at the Sunset Room in the Hollywood Tower Hotel. Won't you join us for a spirited

A festive hearse

The hearse awaiting you in front of the Haunted Mansion has jack-o-lanterns and more ghoulish decorations for the holidays.

Super sweet churros

I could go for Candy Corn and Churros! Ok, so you only can buy churros here but still, that would make an interesting taste combination...

Tin man for Halloween

The Hollywood Tower is ready for Halloween and even has a few discrete decorations for their elite clientele to enjoy.

Mickey-o-Latern

Mickey and Goofy welcome you to the parks!

Desktop: Stop in for the night

Can't have a Halloween season without at least one Hollywood Tower desktop. The classic semaphore stoplight that stands near the hotel protects the intersection as busy travelers go to their limos or the hotel...

Pricklytoo Touchies

Continuing the look at Candy Corn Acres - the crops have various name tags on them. The cactus says to "plant in full sun with dry sense of humor"

Candy Corn silo

The silo at Candy Corn Acres is packed full of sugary sweetness. Can you see the chocolate candy corn piece?

Skeletons and pumpkins

A French Market Halloween, the displays around the restaurant are full of pumpkins and skeleton gingerbread men (from the Haunted Mansion Holiday just down the road...)

Hollywood holiday

The Hollywood Tower is quietly decked out for the Halloween holiday...

Cone of Silence

The Big Thunder Ranch has a display this year of character pumpkins and they are very well done! Carl and Dug are just two of the timely additions...

Desktop: Haunted Christmas

The scary mix of Halloween and Christmas from the Haunted Mansion Holiday has an attic full of pumpkins and strange presents!

Pirate payload

The Pacific Wharf area has been taken over by pirates for the Halloween events, there are piles of loot everywhere...

Giddyup

More from the Big Thunder Ranch and their big Halloween Roundup celebration - the pumpkin headed scarecrows are all over and look excellent...

Star Tours 1.0

Most everyone has heard about Star Tours 2.0 by now. With any luck they won't mess with the wonderful queues at either of the Star Tours - they are a work of art. Meanwhile, here is a look at the attraction poster for version 1.0...

Old Flybait

He Croaked... Now residing the Haunted Mansion pet graveyard...

Desktop: Halloween Roundup

The Big Thunder Barbeque has some terrific theming for the Halloween Roundup, including this sign with the chef ringing the dinner bell (er, triangle) for all the hungry humans out there...

An invasion no more...

The Burger Invasion, now closed, still looks like it could be ready to reopen. The cash register kiosks still have their funky burger UFOs and sparkle paint look...

Pumpkin Head

For the DCA Trick or Treat party there were a few of these blown up Mickey pumpkins around for atmospheric touches. With the lights inside the do produce a nice effect and are put up early enough so that even those not going to the party can enjoy.

Desktop: Halloween on Main Street

This week's desktop was delayed a couple days so I could get a fresh and timely one right from Disneyland.

It's Halloween on Main Street and the whole town is decked out for the holiday! Pumpkins everywhere, festive bunting, and even special treats at the Blue Ribbon Bakery...

Bridge to the north

This bridge is often photographed from the other side - it is the one that helps form the backdrop to the Butchart gardens recreation in Canada. It has an interesting sloped design and helps seperate the "downtown" area from the gardens...

The temple awaits

I'm fresh back from a trip to Disneyland and loaded with new photos! So let's start with a quick look at a modern Adventureland classic... While Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye isn't as old as the Jungle Cruise or Tiki Room it has all the makings of a Disney classic, from ornate queue to great special effects and more...

Adventure Outpost

The Adventure Outpost has a great retro logo and can be found near the exit of the Indiana Jones stunt show...

Flying Fish

Above the outpost in the World Showcase a number of flags can be found flying, including these fish ones...

Oktoberfest

It is Oktoberfest year-round in the Biergarten in Germany...
