Every 2026 date of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is sold out, according to Disney, and the party’s food and merchandise are sold only to guests inside Magic Kingdom on party nights. I went on August 25 and tried three of the party-only items. The one to get is the $6.99 Headless Horseman Treat at Casey’s Corner.
Disney’s foodie guide lists 17 new food and drink items across 11 Magic Kingdom locations, and the party-exclusive merchandise runs from a $9.99 postcard set to a $110 pin box set, according to WDW News Today’s price list.
What I tried: my reviews
Headless Horseman Treat, $6.99, Casey’s Corner
A pumpkin pie tart topped with whipped cheesecake, spiced caramel panna cotta, candied pecans, and marshmallow buttercream “flames,” sold only during the party. It is delicious: it photographs well, it is not too large, and it is not too sweet, and there is a real texture contrast between the whipped cheesecake and the tart shell, with crunch from the candied pecans. If pumpkin and cheesecake are not your thing, skip it, because that is the whole dessert.
Phantasmal Fried Pumpkin Ravioli, Pinocchio Village Haus
Fried pumpkin ravioli with black garlic aïoli and a side Caesar salad, sold only during the party. It was okay, but fried ravioli should be crunchy on the outside, and on my batch it was still soft. It also feels pricey for a few pieces of ravioli when a grocery store will sell you a whole pound for much less.
Pumpkin-spiced Funnel Cake Sundae, Sleepy Hollow Refreshments
Pumpkin funnel cake with pumpkin gelato, whipped cream, pumpkin-spiced caramel, candy pumpkins, and sprinkles, sold only during the party. The presentation did not look great, as the photo shows, and it tastes like what you would expect. It is a fair theme park buy, since funnel cake with a frozen topping is hard to make at home. If you like those things, it will be fine, but it is nothing you have not tasted before.
The caramel apples
I skipped the specialty caramel apples, which were $14.49 each on the night I went. My usual order is the plain caramel peanut apple, because it is made fresh in the park, and that freshness is what sets it apart.

The new food, land by land
Main Street, U.S.A. Casey’s Corner adds the Headless Horseman Treat, reviewed above. The Plaza Restaurant adds two: the Devilish Crispy Chicken Sandwich with spiced mayonnaise, red cabbage, and Fresno peppers on a black kaiser roll, and the Phantom Pecan-Caramel Cheesecake layering New York and caramel cheesecake with dulce de leche, chocolate ganache, and pecans. Both Plaza items also run during regular park hours.
Tomorrowland. The Lunching Pad’s Hades Cake Pop is Mexican hot chocolate cake with popping candies, dipped in chocolate with blue marshmallow “fire.” Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe counters with the Fang-tastic Garlic Butter Burger: Angus beef with Boursin and brie fondue, crispy onions, and garlic pickles on a toasted black bun.
Fantasyland. The Queen of Hearts Tart with sour cherry pie filling sells at Cheshire Cafe by day and Storybook Treats during the party. Be Our Guest Restaurant adds a Beef Short Rib slow-cooked in cabernet sauvignon with figs and butternut squash purée, plus an Apple Cider Margarita with Teremana Blanco Tequila and Grand Marnier. Cinderella’s Royal Table adds the Chicken Cauldron with black truffle sauce, root vegetables, and potato-pumpkin purée. Pinocchio Village Haus adds the Cruella Cookie Sandwich, chocolate cookies filled with raspberry ganache dipped in white chocolate, and the Fra Diavolo Chicken Sandwich on a ciabatta bun.
Liberty Square. Sleepy Hollow Refreshments has the deepest new-item bench with three. Doom Buggy Dumplings are chicken dumplings with red miso gochujang sauce, furikake, and chili threads. The Graveyard Hot Chicken and Waffle puts Nashville hot chicken strips on a blue cornmeal waffle with pickle ranch. And the Hatbox Ghost Pop layers chocolate crumbs with chocolate mousse and dulce de leche, topped with blue crispy pearls.
Frontierland. Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe also adds three. Cursed Cowboy Fries are sweet potato fries topped with barbecue burnt ends, chipotle queso, pico de gallo, and crispy jalapeños. The Frightful Black Bean Burger is plant-based with jalapeño-ranch slaw. And the Skull-icious Cake stacks chocolate cake and chocolate mousse with peanut butter buttercream and chocolate popping candies.
Most new items are available during party hours only, with the Plaza pair and the Cheshire Cafe tart as the daytime exceptions. The full foodie guide covers the returning menu.

The only thing I bought was the $9.99 glow-in-the-dark postcard set, for the artwork, and because it was the one reasonably priced item in the line.
