D23 will be hosting a virtual Halloween event this year called Halloween Hullabaloo. The event will feature a virtual costume contest during which creative contestants will be competing for fantastic prizes in front of celebrity judges Ashley Eckstein and Yvette Nicole Brown. And the category is… “All Things Disney.” Costumes should be inspired by the fantastic worlds of Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars, from movies and TV to Disney Parks attractions and other Disney properties. The Grand Prize winner will receive a $500 Disney Gift Card. The festivities will be streamed on October 31 on D23.com, as well as D23’s Facebook and YouTube channels.

On September 28 at shopDisney.com, D23 Gold and Gold Family Members will have the exclusive opportunity to purchase two collectible pins designed by artist Kevin Kidney. These pins, one of the Haunted Mansion’s Hatbox Ghost and the other of Tinker Bell dressed in a wildly witchy costume, are each presented in a limited edition of 1,750.
D23 Gold and Gold Family Members are also invited to celebrate the launch of this new book by Disney Editions, as we look at the “spine-tingling half” of the book that pulls back the curtain on that magical combination of Disney and Halloween around the world.
For the first four weeks of October, be on the lookout for a new short-form video series featuring our friends from all around Disney who will be sharing some
of their favorite films found on Disney+, including behind-the-scenes tidbits to enhance the frighteningly fun experience
