The countdown is on to Halloween, and the spooky season is now in full swing on Disney Cruise Line ships. I’ve been loving these new images showing the decorations and atmosphere currently on display on Disney’s newest ship, the Disney Wish. Check out some of the scenes below.

Can we take a moment to appreciate this fairytale-perfect Pumpkin Tree? Each pumpkin is glowing with images depicting the stories and the characters of our favorite Disney classics. Disney explains the beauty of this tree with the following description. ‘As the tale would have it, this enchanted tree – named Boo! – grew perfect gourds with the help of a Wishing Star at night, producing the perfect pumpkin that became the coach that carried Cinderella to the Prince’s Ball.’



New to the festivities this year, all of the characters on board will be dressed up in special Halloween attire to get in on the excitement. Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck, and Clarabelle Cow can be spotted causing mischief on each ship as the Sanderson Sisters from the movie Hocus Pocus.

If you are looking for more seasonal activities to enjoy, other special experiences for these sailings include:

  • Mickey’s Mouse-querade Party: Join your favorite Disney characters in Halloween attire for a fun-filled costume party.
  • Halloween Isn’t Just For Kids: Adult-exclusive venues across the fleet become a ghoulish setting for costume contests and a Villainous Takeover on the dance floor.
  • Spooky Movies: To get guests into the spirit of the season, Halloween-themed movies will be shown on Funnel Vision by the family pool and in staterooms.
  • Ghoulish Delights: Enjoy special themed food and beverage items around the ship — and don’t forget about the trick-or-treating.
