Halloween Time Brings Fall Fun to Disneyland Resort Hotels in 2026
Cozy sweaters, crisp, blue skies, and pumpkin spice everything! Fall and Halloween are here, and Disneyland is immersed in the fun.
Halloween Time is taking over more than the theme parks at Disneyland Resort. This fall, all three Disneyland Resort hotels are joining the celebration with seasonal décor, character dining, sweet treats, activities, and special experiences.
The best part? You don’t need a hotel reservation to enjoy many of these offerings!
Halloween Looks at the Hotels
Disney
The resorts have transformed for the spooky season.
Pixar Place Hotel is getting a Monsters, Inc. makeover with new seasonal artwork featuring Mike, Sulley, Boo, and other familiar faces.
Disney
At the Disneyland Hotel, happy haunts have materialized with Haunted Mansion-inspired displays. Guests can spot the four doomed figures from the attraction’s stretching room and pose for photos near the menacing wrought iron gates.
Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa is also celebrating Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas with an impressive confectionery display featuring Jack Skellington, Sally, Zero, Oogie Boogie, and the Mayor on Spiral Hill.
How amazing are these details? The pastry team spent more than 800 hours creating the display using 175 pounds of chocolate, 140 pounds of fondant, 150 pounds of powdered sugar, 105 pounds of rice cereal, and 38 pounds of marshmallows.
Over at the Disneyland Hotel, a five-foot Mickey Mouse pumpkin confectionery near Goofy’s Kitchen is the perfect place for pictures and to look for 13 hidden Mickeys!
Halloween Character Dining and Seasonal Treats
Disney characters are getting into the Halloween spirit too.
