Where can you begin on a list like this? I'm not a huge Halloween lover, but one visit to Disneyland in October and you will fall in love even if just for the time you're there! Anytime you can add a dash of some Disney magic to something you're bound to make it unforgettable and leave everyone wanting more. Although there's much more, here are my top 5 reasons to love Halloween at DLR.

Tickets can sell out quickly for the Oogie Boogie Bash, but if you didn't get a chance to get tickets don't worry! There are a lot of other options for you to do around the Disneyland Resort on evenings when the Oogie Boogie Bash takes over California Adventure so you'll still have plenty of fun those last few hours of the night. With a little advance planning you almost won't even feel you're missing anything!

The Disneyland Resort offers three spectacular hotels to allow guests to be completely immersed in the Disney experience on their trip! They are pricier than many other Good Neighbor Hotel options, so then you may be wondering "Why should I spend my money on a Disneyland Resort Hotel when these others are so much cheaper and just as close?" Let me answer that for you...

You've probably seen the Disney PhotoPass photographers around the parks, especially in the last few years as Disney has been pushing them more and more in both Disneyland and Walt Disney World. Chances are you've probably passed them by and took your own photo with your camera, but the PhotoPass system at Disneyland has its advantages that you may not be aware of. Read through and think twice next time you see a photographer!

If you believe everything you read online, many sites will have you believe that most iconic Disney Park snacks are only available at one, possibly two, places in each resort. The truth, however, is much simpler. The snack staples at the Disneyland Resort are rarely offered at just one location and if you know where to look you can save yourself a great deal of time in line and still get the same experience everyone on the internet is raving about.

Much like the parades or fireworks, World of Color at Disney California Adventure does take a little bit of advance preparation, but not to the extent that you may think.  World of Color is unique because whereas parades are at eye-level and fireworks are in the sky this spectacular is both.  Getting a "great seat" isn't hard, though, but there are certain things to keep in mind to make sure you're not diminishing the experience of others around you.

No land in Disneyland has changed as much over the years as Tomorrowland (for better or worse). All those changes have shaped it into the area it is today and left behind traces of history. Next time you're in Tomorrowland, take some time to notice these things and feel like the smartest person around since you'll know where they came from!
