Disneyland dropped a bunch of news on the Halloween season, and we are eating it up like candy.

Halloween season at Disneyland will run from August 22nd to October 31st. The parks will be decorated with pumpkins, leaves, bunting, special lighting, and so much more as “fall sights, sounds, and flavors take over the resort.”
