Hi Lindsey! Welcome to planDisney! Thanks so much for stopping by to send us your planning question.
How exciting that you're only two sleeps away from starting your Disneyland Resort vacation! Congratulations on scoring tickets to the very popular and sold-out,
Oogie Boogie Bash – A Disney Halloween Party! You are correct that Maleficent will not be one of the villains at this year's party. While she isn't available to meet you at Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park, there are some other ways you can experience her evil, I mean enchanting, spirit.
When you're at Oogie Boogie Bash, be sure to visit
Villains Grove! You will find Maleficent’s Will, complete with thorn-spiked vines and a colorful waterfall, in this villains-themed area. At
Disneyland Park, you can also feel Maleficent's presence during the day at
Sleeping Beauty Castle Walkthrough, and at night during
Halloween Screams. While I realize this isn't the same as seeing her in person, I hope these experiences will be fun for you!
I'm wishing you spellbinding fun and magical memories during your visit! I hope you will stop by
planDisney again when you're ready to visit The Happiest Place on Earth again. We would love to help!
See ya real soon!
Smiles,
Lisa
