Trick-or-Treat Trails
Trick-or-treating is a huge part of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! Note that you don’t actually HAVE to trick-or-treat, but if you want some complimentary candy, that’s where you need to go.
You can use your map to find each trick-or-treat trail or look for the large inflatables marking each trail. At night, they light up!
