Things You Might Not Know About Haunted Mansion Holiday at Disneyland Park
posted on September 13th, 2011 by Erin Glover, Manager, Social Media and Print With Halloween Time coming up at the Disneyland Resort, spooky preparations are taking place all aroundDisneyland park. A guest favorite each year is Haunted Mansion Holiday. Soon Jack Skellington and co. will take over the Haunted Mansion, complete with a new Gingerbread House. As we get ready for the opening of Haunted Mansion Holiday, here are some fun facts you might not know:
Jack Skellington Sugar Cookies
Makes 18 cookies
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Icing
2 egg whites
3 cups confectioner’s sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
Black food coloring paste
- Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl and whisk until combined. Set aside.
- Combine butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Add flour mixture in three parts. Once dough comes together, cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- On a floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Using a round cookie cutter or an overturned cup, cut dough into circles about 3 1/4 inches in diameter. Place cookies 1 inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely before icing.
For icing:
- Place egg whites in bowl of an electric mixer; whisk until frothy. Add confectioners’ sugar a little at a time, until thick but still spreadable.
- Place 1/3 of icing in a separate bowl. Add black food coloring paste to reserved icing and stir until color is uniform.
- Decorate cooled cookies by covering with white icing and letting it dry (placing cookies in the refrigerator will speed up this process).
- Place black icing in a pastry bag or a plastic resealable bag and cut off a tiny bit of the corner to create a very small hole. Use black icing to draw eyes, nostrils and stitched mouth on each cookie.

Disneyland Paris Halloween 2011 Update : Disney’s Maleficious Halloween Party, and more
Reblogged from: disneyandmore.blogspot.com
The Halloween Season began at Disneyland Paris and until October 31st DLP guests will enjoy the Halloween decor as well as an all new show on Central Plaza called Disney’s Maleficious Halloween Party, hosted by the sinister Maleficent. Here is a full update with HD pics and videos which will show you this DLP Halloween season just like if you were there!
At Disney’s Maleficious Halloween Party Disney’s ‘Mistress of All Evil’ awaits you daily for a brand new show full of delightfully deadly surprises! Still seething with jealousy for not having been invited to Princess Aurora’s christening, Maleficent plans to cast a spell of terror over Sleeping Beauty Castle. This year, she has given the job to the latest arrival to the family of Disney Villains, Dr. Facilier from the Walt Disney Pictures film The Princess and the Frog. Although Facilier proclaims himself ‘World’s greatest sorcerer,’ Maleficent has plans to show him the true tricks of the trade. The height of the show - a sinfully delicious shower of treats!
Here is a Youtube video of the full show filmed by filipv who did a great job. Note that a rumor is saying that DLP might reduce in the coming months the size of the Central Plaza stage.

Finally, the park did its Halloween media event recently with VIP guests who this time went on photo call with Disney Villains. You can see some of them on the video below, but most of them if not all are french so if you don’t live in France you might not know any of them; Still, my french readers will be interested by the video.
