I remember, I've been to the last Terrorific Night in 2012 and it was awesome. I loved the entrance of the park, because you had a huge American Firefighter truck with firefighters begging you to not enter the studios because something horrible was happening in the park... The event was awesome, but the park was so crowded you had huge lanes everywhere and the waiting times were awful... It was impossible to do everything in one night unfortunately.
So apparently there was a survey where they asked guests what would bring them back to Oogie Boogie Bash and one of the optioned answers were a Marvel Zombies haunted attraction which would go behind mission breakout.
I work at Disneyland Paris (I worked a long time in the WDS) and all the cast members I know that have known Terrorific Nights told me it was amazing. I wish I could have known these events
I absolutely hope that Zombie Captain America is a sign of things to come, I believe there is a lot of fertile room for design and Imagineering would/could come up with some truly amazing creations. Disneyland is meant to be for the whole family, but that doesn’t mean every single attraction or event needs to be for everyone, as long as there is a “Not So Scary” party an alternative horror event is welcome addition. Not every family is the same and not every family has young children.
imagine if they had an entire roster of zombie Marvel superheroes alongside Cap, plus one "survivor" and the story being that some of the heroes got turned into zombies and one survivor is all that's left.
Can you imagine scarezones at World Showcase in Epcot? It would be mind-blowing. The Japan pavilion would be taken over by Youkai, and the Norway pavilion would get turned into a Pagan Black Metal scene.
@@228-n6f and the Mexican pavilion would be a day of the dead party but with the undead roaming the pavilion but definitely the Disney park that needs a Halloween horror nights style Halloween event would be disney hollywood studios
For some context here: Disneyland Paris was never fully owned by the Walt Disney Company until 2017, Disneyland Paris was mostly stake owned by Euro Disney SCA and the shareholders lounge is Salon Mickey in Disneyland Park. The buyout is the reason why the Walt Disney Studios park 2.0 expansion is underway right now, including Avengers Campus replacing the Backlot. Furthermore edit: Walt Disney Studios Park opened with hardly any family friendly rides, only Tram Tour and Carpets. WDSP was another one of Michael Eisner’s pet projects to get more adult oriented attractions into Disney resorts. Gradually since Eisner left in 2005 and when Disney realised the lack of family attractions, they slowly started to expand into Toon Studio with Crush’s Coaster, Cars Race Rally, Toy Story Playland and now Ratatouille. This is why Terrorific Nights went on for so long without Disney intervention, they didn’t change their perception of the park until later on.
Love your video ! Can’t believe my small fan-made video made it to your channel which I’ve been watching for some time now. My father was one of the Terrorific Nights’ event designers (and still is to this day at DLP). He often told me this was his all-time favorite event to create !
But does Disney *really* need to have something like HHN, when HHN, Howl-O-Scream, Knott's Scary Farm, and so many other "adult-oriented" Halloween events already exist and are accessible?
Given Bob Igers direction for Disney after he became in charge, his idea was to make Disney more ‘edgy’ and ‘more for adults’, I’m not surprised something official Disney exclusively for adults was able to get off the ground.
U.S. Disney Parks bringing Zombie Captain America to life has to be the best thing they could've done for a Halloween event and based on the What If...? show, based on the Marvel Zombies comics.
OMG SO MUCH MEMORIES 😍😍😍 I went 2 years in a row with my best friend back then between 2010 and 2011, so the 2nd and 3rd night, and I remember we found the 3rd night way more intense than the 2nd with all those burned cast members who told us to leave the park because something horrible was happening inside ! It seemed so real. But gosh what fun we had, running and screaming everywhere in the smoky alleys to escape the psychopaths and the monsters I miss these events so much and I regret that we chose to try the "Not-so-scary Halloween Party" at Disneyland Paris for 2012... If only we knew it would be the last Terrorific Night 😥 Back then we all thought they stopped it because Disneyland (Disney Studios included) is mostly meant for kids and families and people were kinda upset to see something as trash as that in the resort (even if it was clearly said that these event was unsuitable for children under 16, we saw a lot of young kids with their parents...), but I didn't know it was just because they did it without Disney's permission 😨 I felt like it was very inspired by the Halloween Horror Nights in Universal Studios, and I thought it was brilliant they did that Anyway thank you so much for this recap, it bring back good memories 🤩👍 (Sorry for my bad english, I'm french haha)
While I'm not a fan of Halloween, it's always nice to see the park's having their own thing rather then copying whatever is happening at Disneyland Park
Disneyland Paris somehow brought this "kind" experience during their Halloween Soiree back in 2018 and 2019 in Disneyland Park. This time, only a smaller scale called "Pirate Scare Zone" located in Adventure Isle in Adventureland. They have pirate zombies roaming around the cave mazes scaring guests around. One zombie is even holding a beheaded head on his hands. Captain Jack also appears meeting guests. Trust me, it's one of the busiest areas during the party. However, it didn't return during this year's 2021 Halloween Soiree due to the pandemic.
Awesome! You should look in to the new version of tower of terror in paris which is arguably the scariest disney attraction with scenes reminiscent of horror movies. It has 3 different storylines and sequences that are random
Say whaaaaa!?!? I had no idea this even happened before! My mind is blown 🤯 right now. I would have done anything to go to this event back in 2012 when it was going on. Thank you so much for sharing 👌🏼
this looks so cool! I wish I had the chance to fly and visit just for this event, it doesn’t seem quite as scary as HHN and honestly this would be so perfect for me as I don’t like things that are too scary or at least jump scare in front of my face. and the price is great too haha
I went to two of these and it was fantastic (went with one of your photo sources, photosmagique). The last one was way too crowded though so the scariest thing was what massive queue to join. It totally made sense for Disneyland Paris to get in on the more adult scare attractions as they're huge in Europe, their biggest competitor in Paris, Parc Asterix, is famous for their intense Halloween event which goes on for most of October. It's a shame the event was cut, it really needed to become a multi-night event to cope with the demand.
Can you imagine scarezones at World Showcase in Epcot? Think about it: The Japan pavilion would get taken over by Youkai, and the Norway pavilion getting turned into a Pagan Black Metal Scene. It’d be crazy that would bring up the immersive theming to another level.
There is definitely a market for this, Disney figure out a way... they love making money... it doesn't make sense not taking advantage of this opportunity.
Actually, yes it does. Because Orlando already had HHN and Howl-O-Scream, while the west coast has their HHN and Knott's Scary Farm. Why would childless adults, that admit their reason for going to HHN is to get away from children 12 and under getting freaked out and "ruining their (the childless adult's) fun", pay to go to a less scary HHN when they have the real deal? What sense does *that* make? There are so many "mature", "adult" Halloween events already out there, why does Disney need to cater to you to make a watered down version of what you experience at HHN, Howl-O-Scream, Knott's, etc? Not everything needs to be for everyone, and that includes childless adults too insecure to admit they like Disney and will visit the parks without a child in tow because the general public still sees Disney Parks as being "childish" and "only for families with small children", and demand Disney further bend the knee to make said adults feel included. Disney doesn't need to offer you a watered down HHN to try to compete with the authentic version.
HollowedJes Wtf. Why are you acting like the commenter was being an annoying Disney adult. You could of simply just explain why you think it is a bad idea WITHOUT being rude with “insecure adult” bullshit.
WOW!!! Didn’t this was done at ANY Disney Park!!! Would’ve love to experienced it at Disneyland Paris. Too bad Disney doesn’t try something like that at Hollywood Studios. Boo Bash at MK & Terror Fest @ Hollywood Studios.
5:32 can you please elaborate on ‘Laboratory of Doofenshmirtz’? Is that just what you’re calling the overlay or was there actual IP integration from Phineas and Ferb??
In my research I was unable to find if it was meant to be a tie-in or just a coincidence. There's no direct connection to the P&F character other than the name, he doesn't really look like Doofenschmirtz either. But the event started after the show so seems bizarre to pick that name just for the sake of it, may have been a sort of tounge in cheeck unofficial tie-in by the creators but I heavily doubt it was Disney approved - Luke
Even if that the Case, This is Extremely Out of Character for him. Doofenshmirtz is a Mad, Yet Harmless Villain Who Can't Even Remember to Turned off his Machines or put a Self-Destruct Feature in ALL of his Inventions. He is Easily Thwarted by a Platypus For God Sake.
@@ReviewTyme That's wild. Sounds like a surface-level attempt to draw people in, strange that Disney would be okay with it... but then again it sounds like they weren't 'okay' with this event at large and it happened anyway. Such an interesting footnote in the history of the parks
It definitely would have been awesome to experience these HHN-Lite experiences at the Disney Parks across the pond, but at the same time, I get why the Disney corporation shut them down. HHN fits in well at the Universal Parks. Having something like that at the Disney Parks, while fun for childless adults, is the antithesis of Disney itself. That's *why* people attend more adult events like HHN, Howl-O-Scream, and Knott's Scary Farm, because it's not Disney and they don't want to deal with a bunch of rugrats running around getting scared at a 13+ Halloween event. That's what the Oogie Boogie Bash and Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween events are for. Not everything has to be for everyone, and that goes for not every Halloween event having to be like HHN for the childless adults. You have no shortage of other "grown-up" Halloween events across the country to choose from, do you *really* need for Disney to host one too? (Answer: No, not really.) It's cool the European and East Asian Disney parks were able to do these events for a few years, but I understand why the Disney higher-ups put a stop to it. Not all Halloween events need to be the same level of intensity as Universal's Halloween Horror Nights, and it's kinda selfish to demand that of Disney when you already have HHN and other similar HHN-like events. I know that's an extremely unpopular opinion with the childless adult Disney park fans, but it's the truth.
This event was really high on my list to visit and I barely made it, I don’t know the age restriction but I assume it was 16 and up and at the last run I just turned 16, I did not knew it was the last time the event was taking place otherwise I would have visited the event in 2012. Really hope it will come back someday in the future but I highly doubt it. Which is a shame, there is so much potential
I'm conflicted. Part of me is tired of having my inner child traumatized... but the part of me that is a sick little monkey loves the idea. Screw the fun police (aka Disney) 😠
Disney Did Horror Before, Look At Ichabod Crane and Bald Mountain. Clearly they Could Easily Scare Kids for Halloween in At Least Gory for Kids Standards.
Kind of a shame, I don't see why the main park can't go for a more PG Halloween offering, and the studios goes for a more HHN theme. Not going to happen ever again though with the park moving towards becoming Castle Park 2.0.
I am so sad because, I live in France and always wanted to try the Terrorific Night at Disneyland Paris. But I was too young, so I wasn't allowed to go. And the year I was FINALLY old enough, they announced that they were stopping this event 😭
Thank you..love the video...they could do this. while MK runs it's g rated Halloween, they could expand the unused (abandoned office) area behind the old animation court yard at DS.. it about third of the park size.. Put a twentieth century studio area with rides.. then once a year bring Monster from 20th century and area for Halloween (pg13). have closed off through the Court yard... Since there would be a controlled enter point, it would be possible just post a sign some rides may not be suitable for all....Walt did say a place for the children and the parents, not only parents with children.. it also be a great area to bring back the great movie ride and XS tech AE... this type of Halloween although toned down would put them in competition with Universal HHN. Since the terror nights were populated with a high number of Americans, there is a market that Disney could take advantage of.... again thank you... Work like a Capt, party like a pirate!
Do they really need to though? When you already have Halloween Horror Nights, Howl-O-Scream, Knott's Scary Farm and so many other "grown-up" Halloween events available across the country? Why does Disney specifically need to do an HHN-like event for childless adults when said childless adults say that they attend HHN specifically because it's *not* Disney, and they don't have to deal with a bunch of children 12 and under getting -traumatized- scared and "ruining *their* (the childless adult's) fun"?
@@cannibalisticrequiem not saying child-less area..saying a PG 13...more updated rides even an avengers campus area (huge yelling hulk, was surprised to see zombie capt at DL no place for him at WDW) there is enough room in that closed unused office area at DS, remember some said tower of tarror was too intense are first...years ago Isner said some Disney entertainment needed an upgrade a step into modern markets. At the time Disney had a problem with nothing for boys 10,11,12 and 13(because of isners directive that why Paris came out with that show)..... it was all baby-ish and princess.. yes we slowly open these markets with Disney aquired starwars and marvel. That is why they designed (with Lucas) XS-tech AE.. but some said it was too scary too fast for Disney to have such a ride in MK..what was considered scary then is not today. As people grow the things of the past seem mild(less modern and surprising). Just saying Disney could further open the market in a niche they been trying to get to by haft inches but by feet. A way to slowly open a door they really not been able or afraid to.. not a full horror night but somewhere between as said PG13. An area devoted to 20th century bring back AE , bring back a great movie ride like ride that little kiddos felt was boring.( At Halloween put 20 century old monsters with a warning kid under 13 may find scary. Not chain saw crazy running around dripping blood but 12 foot tall gort (the day the earth stood still) walking around or even the aliens from alien and predator. Little kiddos may find it a bit scarry (some kiddos find Darth to much).. remember Walt said a place for parents and the children not just the parents of children.. but great comment and discussion all liked and needed that the problem with today's Disney no discussion, but that another thing we can talk about later..
Just a sign with “not suitable for all ages” is not good enough. When Allien Encounters was a thing, Disney did that but people did not listen. Instead maybe have it be ID restricted area or an add on that an adult needs to buy before hand (+$$$ too for the mouse). Otherwise it sounds like a good idea except for some major logistical issues (how safe are the abandoned offices?).
Looks like it would be a fun event. Always thought they should do something a little scarier at Hollywood Studios. Don’t imagine something this far as I don’t see them trying to directly compete with HHN, but something a little spookier with scare actors and themed mazes. Hollywood Studios seems the right fit as it has the most thrilling rides already and could be a good in between level event that is scarier than MNSSHP but not as far as HHN.
That would never work in Orlando. Considering you have HHN there and Howl-o-scream, the Disney version would just be considered a watered down, less scary version. Why would people pay a lot of money for a less scary "Scary" Halloween event when you can pay for the real deal? It would also hurt Disney's image as being a place for families with Children. It's better for Disney to stick to their audience with family friendly Halloween events aimed towards children.
@@cannibalisticrequiem They don't need to but it would be nice to have more diversity in the Halloween offerings for those that still enjoy Disney but would like stuff a little spookier. Or those that want something between MNSSHP and HHN/Howl-O-Scream.
I don't know how I feel about this? I live in Florida and think Disney should keep it for all ages. Besides we got Universals Halloween Horror nights which is just down the road from Disney which is almost like this.
@@RACCorpStudios I went to Six Flags Fright Fest and they sold merchandise of the Looney Tunes characters looking all zombie and bloody looking. That’s something Disney would NEVER do to their characters to be sold for official merchandise
I hate HHN. I don't want to feel randos warm breath on my neck and knives shoved in my face every 2 seconds. I wish more people did the fun Halloween thing and not the anxiety-inducing Halloween thing.
@@jalapeno1119 I love the spooky atmosphere but I hate having the scare actors in my face. The only Halloween event I do is the Cedar Point one bc I know it so well I can do the horror stuff and avoid the actors mostly.
@@jalapeno1119 I 100% agree with you I love the more family friendly things that Disney does for Halloween such as Nightmare Before Christmas and the Haunted Mansion
I wish American could get to experience stuff like this. If you asks most Americans they'd say without a shred of doubt that Americans are much tougher and gritter than French people could ever dream of being but the entertainment industry treats us like we're all a bunch of little bitches.
I think this was a brilliant idea. Disney was hoping to make some part of the park adult focused, the concept of the Dark Kingdom being an example. I understand that the Disney Brand is predominantly kid friendly, but the Black Cauldron and the Night on Bald Mountain are great examples of how dark the company can be if given the chance, and I am all for it. When you focus solely on children friendly entertainment, creativity can become stagnant, which is what we are seeing happening to Disney at the moment. You cant take risks, and thinking outside the box is not safe, there is only so much you can do. Scary is not a bad thing, much to how many overprotective parents will disagree. The world is scary, and kids will not be ready for if always sheltered. Something more scary for older kids is not only more fun, it is important.
I want Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disney’s Animal Kingdom to have Halloween events with limited time Halloween attractions and shows and I want Epcot to have some limited time Halloween and Fall attractions and shows for the Halloween season!
Animal Kingdom is a difficult one to do events for. Animal Kingdom is an AZA accredited Zoo(highest standards). They need to put animal welfare first. If they do this, they have to be very careful and mindful.
to be honest Disney should stop being such a queer and risk doing something scarier in its theme parks a Halloween horror nights style Halloween event in a Disney park it would be great if I chose a park where that event would be held it would definitely be Disney Hollywood studios

That's what the Oogie Boogie Bash and Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween events are for. Not everything has to be for everyone, and that goes for not every Halloween event having to be like HHN for the childless adults. You have no shortage of other "grown-up" Halloween events across the country to choose from, do you *really* need for Disney to host one too? (Answer: No, not really.)
It's cool the European and East Asian Disney parks were able to do these events for a few years, but I understand why the Disney higher-ups put a stop to it. Not all Halloween events need to be the same level of intensity as Universal's Halloween Horror Nights, and it's kinda selfish to demand that of Disney when you already have HHN and other similar HHN-like events. I know that's an extremely unpopular opinion with the childless adult Disney park fans, but it's the truth.
Can we have these horror nights in the states' parks? Please? I wanna go to Disney World and be taken to hell for Halloween
I want to do this event so bad...
And the scariest element of all; Copyright infringement!! AAAH!! =) (LOL) (Seriously, that demon was OBVIOUSLY Darkness from 'Legend'.)
WOW, that last thumbnail was rough, anyways... we all slip and fall. great video gents
Fun fnact: fnac is actually pronounced as it's written, not as individual letters. xD
This is so cool this is probably on par with Halloween horror nights
The fact that Tim Curry's Lord of Darkness is a Disney character thanks to this
Disney owns the rights to Legend.
I was there when I was kid. Disney Studio used to celebrate Halloween terrorific event back in the early 2000's. It's banned cuz that went too far and
So cool!!!! Had no idea this existed!
Maybe Hollywood studios can include Freeform shows.
Wow I would enjoy that so so much!!! A horror night for adults and in the next door (literally) a soft and cute quite lame spooky got kids!!! 😔
This event was really high on my list to visit and I barely made it, I don’t know the age restriction but I assume it was 16 and up and at the last run I just turned 16, I did not knew it was the last time the event was taking place otherwise I would have visited the event in 2012. Really hope it will come back someday in the future but I highly doubt it. Which is a shame, there is so much potential
I'm conflicted. Part of me is tired of having my inner child traumatized... but the part of me that is a sick little monkey loves the idea.
Screw the fun police (aka Disney) 😠
Back then Disney didn’t own Disney Paris outright so they did not control it.
and keep in mind this is DISNEYLAND
Disney Did Horror Before, Look At Ichabod Crane and Bald Mountain. Clearly they Could Easily Scare Kids for Halloween in At Least Gory for Kids Standards.
I dub this, Mickey's not so scary chainsaw massacre!
Honestly compared to mickeys boo bash at magic kingsom this year anything would be better
The poor saps paid extra and for what? No fireworks, no parades, no Hocus Pocus show, no characters!
Love this!
Never went but looks Awsome. Wish Disney would do stuff like this
I'm so confused about the Doofenshmirtz thing
Kind of a shame, I don't see why the main park can't go for a more PG Halloween offering, and the studios goes for a more HHN theme. Not going to happen ever again though with the park moving towards becoming Castle Park 2.0.
I didn’t know this! I wish I had the opportunity to go there!
Still sitting here hoping someone does a HNN history video for the Asian Universal parks (Japan and Singapore, since Beijing is still new)
I am so sad because, I live in France and always wanted to try the Terrorific Night at Disneyland Paris. But I was too young, so I wasn't allowed to go. And the year I was FINALLY old enough, they announced that they were stopping this event 😭
même si je suis pas fan de et événement, j'dois admettre que ça avait l'air vraiment cool et c'est dommage qu'il l'ont retirer. ^^"
That was cool
Awe unfair! Had no clue it even existed 😭
Thank you..love the video...they could do this. while MK runs it's g rated Halloween, they could expand the unused (abandoned office) area behind the old animation court yard at DS.. it about third of the park size.. Put a twentieth century studio area with rides.. then once a year bring Monster from 20th century and area for Halloween (pg13). have closed off through the Court yard... Since there would be a controlled enter point, it would be possible just post a sign some rides may not be suitable for all....Walt did say a place for the children and the parents, not only parents with children.. it also be a great area to bring back the great movie ride and XS tech AE... this type of Halloween although toned down would put them in competition with Universal HHN. Since the terror nights were populated with a high number of Americans, there is a market that Disney could take advantage of.... again thank you... Work like a Capt, party like a pirate!
Do they really need to though? When you already have Halloween Horror Nights, Howl-O-Scream, Knott's Scary Farm and so many other "grown-up" Halloween events available across the country? Why does Disney specifically need to do an HHN-like event for childless adults when said childless adults say that they attend HHN specifically because it's *not* Disney, and they don't have to deal with a bunch of children 12 and under getting -traumatized- scared and "ruining *their* (the childless adult's) fun"?
@@cannibalisticrequiem not saying child-less area..saying a PG 13...more updated rides even an avengers campus area (huge yelling hulk, was surprised to see zombie capt at DL no place for him at WDW) there is enough room in that closed unused office area at DS, remember some said tower of tarror was too intense are first...years ago Isner said some Disney entertainment needed an upgrade a step into modern markets. At the time Disney had a problem with nothing for boys 10,11,12 and 13(because of isners directive that why Paris came out with that show)..... it was all baby-ish and princess.. yes we slowly open these markets with Disney aquired starwars and marvel. That is why they designed (with Lucas) XS-tech AE.. but some said it was too scary too fast for Disney to have such a ride in MK..what was considered scary then is not today. As people grow the things of the past seem mild(less modern and surprising). Just saying Disney could further open the market in a niche they been trying to get to by haft inches but by feet. A way to slowly open a door they really not been able or afraid to.. not a full horror night but somewhere between as said PG13. An area devoted to 20th century bring back AE , bring back a great movie ride like ride that little kiddos felt was boring.( At Halloween put 20 century old monsters with a warning kid under 13 may find scary. Not chain saw crazy running around dripping blood but 12 foot tall gort (the day the earth stood still) walking around or even the aliens from alien and predator. Little kiddos may find it a bit scarry (some kiddos find Darth to much).. remember Walt said a place for parents and the children not just the parents of children.. but great comment and discussion all liked and needed that the problem with today's Disney no discussion, but that another thing we can talk about later..
Just a sign with “not suitable for all ages” is not good enough. When Allien Encounters was a thing, Disney did that but people did not listen. Instead maybe have it be ID restricted area or an add on that an adult needs to buy before hand (+$$$ too for the mouse). Otherwise it sounds like a good idea except for some major logistical issues (how safe are the abandoned offices?).
Looks like it would be a fun event. Always thought they should do something a little scarier at Hollywood Studios. Don’t imagine something this far as I don’t see them trying to directly compete with HHN, but something a little spookier with scare actors and themed mazes. Hollywood Studios seems the right fit as it has the most thrilling rides already and could be a good in between level event that is scarier than MNSSHP but not as far as HHN.
That would never work in Orlando. Considering you have HHN there and Howl-o-scream, the Disney version would just be considered a watered down, less scary version. Why would people pay a lot of money for a less scary "Scary" Halloween event when you can pay for the real deal? It would also hurt Disney's image as being a place for families with Children. It's better for Disney to stick to their audience with family friendly Halloween events aimed towards children.
@Josh Berninger Why does Disney need to do that?
@@cannibalisticrequiem They don't need to but it would be nice to have more diversity in the Halloween offerings for those that still enjoy Disney but would like stuff a little spookier. Or those that want something between MNSSHP and HHN/Howl-O-Scream.
I don't know how I feel about this? I live in Florida and think Disney should keep it for all ages. Besides we got Universals Halloween Horror nights which is just down the road from Disney which is almost like this.
Yeah but if not so scary Halloween party is just across I don’t see a problem if they aren’t replacing not so scary
@@RACCorpStudios I went to Six Flags Fright Fest and they sold merchandise of the Looney Tunes characters looking all zombie and bloody looking. That’s something Disney would NEVER do to their characters to be sold for official merchandise
I hate HHN. I don't want to feel randos warm breath on my neck and knives shoved in my face every 2 seconds. I wish more people did the fun Halloween thing and not the anxiety-inducing Halloween thing.
@@jalapeno1119 I love the spooky atmosphere but I hate having the scare actors in my face. The only Halloween event I do is the Cedar Point one bc I know it so well I can do the horror stuff and avoid the actors mostly.
@@jalapeno1119 I 100% agree with you I love the more family friendly things that Disney does for Halloween such as Nightmare Before Christmas and the Haunted Mansion
I watched you on The Chase last night. Bummer about the questions you got compared to the other contestants.
Wait he was really on The Chase?
Why can’t we do this in the States???
Great channel.
Halloween revenge
It was great
Can't show it on RUclips? The video you show is /on/ RUclips..
I wish American could get to experience stuff like this. If you asks most Americans they'd say without a shred of doubt that Americans are much tougher and gritter than French people could ever dream of being but the entertainment industry treats us like we're all a bunch of little bitches.
I blame parents.
This event is definitely not the Disney norm, and I don’t know how I feel about it having ever existed lol
I think this was a brilliant idea. Disney was hoping to make some part of the park adult focused, the concept of the Dark Kingdom being an example.
I understand that the Disney Brand is predominantly kid friendly, but the Black Cauldron and the Night on Bald Mountain are great examples of how dark the company can be if given the chance, and I am all for it.
When you focus solely on children friendly entertainment, creativity can become stagnant, which is what we are seeing happening to Disney at the moment. You cant take risks, and thinking outside the box is not safe, there is only so much you can do.
Scary is not a bad thing, much to how many overprotective parents will disagree. The world is scary, and kids will not be ready for if always sheltered. Something more scary for older kids is not only more fun, it is important.
@@supersaiandemon they should take the concepts from terrorific and make a park section out of it
I wonder how long the video covering Genting SkyWorlds will be
I want Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disney’s Animal Kingdom to have Halloween events with limited time Halloween attractions and shows and I want Epcot to have some limited time Halloween and Fall attractions and shows for the Halloween season!
Animal Kingdom is a difficult one to do events for. Animal Kingdom is an AZA accredited Zoo(highest standards). They need to put animal welfare first. If they do this, they have to be very careful and mindful.
Tres formidable!
Imagine if they did this in America
It would rival Universal's Halloween Horror Nights.
@@sailormoonfaiza true but think about it have the Disney villain that rare to meet.
That sounds so fun!
in france we say fnac like its written not f-n-a-c (:
to be honest Disney should stop being such a queer and risk doing something scarier in its theme parks a Halloween horror nights style Halloween event in a Disney park it would be great if I chose a park where that event would be held it would definitely be Disney Hollywood studios
