With the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party starting next weekend, could Disney have a few new tricks up its sleeve?
There are rumors circulating that Disney’s Descendants characters could be part of the long-running Boo-To-You Parade. The bad news? It might come at the expense of the Disney Villains.
The rumors seem to be originating from a thread on WDW Magic, a known hangout for (mostly) reputable Disney insiders. The rumor says Descendants have been talked about, but many are reporting that this is not actually happening.
Sorry, Mal and Evie fans!
Other rumored changes to expect to the Boo-to-You Parade include Mickey and Minnie using the new heads from Shanghai, Judy Hopps replacing Clara Cluck in the Hoedown scene, and the expectation of more budgetary cuts to the aging parade.
Also rumored? Fewer trick or treat locations.
A seemingly confirmed rumor indicates that Moana will be having a meet and greet in Adventureland near the Leaky Tikis.

Among all these rumors, There is one thing that I REALLY wish they would change in the Boo-To-You parade and thats the Hitchhiking Ghosts in the Haunted Mansion unit. It bugs the crap out of me to see them move like robots! Change their looks and make them walk behind the float like their trying to hitch a ride (and maybe have them play a little bit with the guests) and put Constance or The Ghost Host or The Hatbox Ghost on the final float! Its a big missed opportunity and Its a simple thing to change! STOP MAKING ALL THESE POINTLESS BUDGETARY CUTS!!!!
