Hiya Ray,
Thank you for stopping by planDisney with your question! As a fellow fan of the Villains, I’m thrilled to help you and your granddaughter track down some of those delightfully wicked characters during your visit.
So, let’s dive right into the cauldron! While Maleficent—Mistress of All Evil herself doesn’t currently have a meet-and-greet location at Walt Disney World, there are still some wonderfully wicked encounters to be had. Recently, my daughters had the most hilarious interaction with Anastasia and Drizella outside
Cinderella Castle in Fantasyland. Those two were arguing (as usual) over who was the favorite sister, and my girls were giggling for the rest of the day. Total Bibbidi Bobbidi Sass!
If your granddaughter is into the galactic side of villainy, don’t miss
Darth Vader at the Star Wars Launch Bay in
Hollywood Studios. And keep an eye out in Batuu—Kylo Ren and his stormtroopers tend to patrol
Galaxy’s Edge, and they’re not exactly the warm-and-fuzzy type.
For an extra dose of mischief, I highly recommend catching the brand-new show, Vi
llains: Unfairly Ever After in Hollywood Studios, behind Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster. It’s supposed to be a spine-tinglingly fun way to see iconic villains take center stage—and maybe even tell their side of the story for once!
To find the latest meet-and-greet info during your visit, just open the
My Disney Experience app, tap the map, and filter by Characters. Since character meet-and-greets are subject to change, it’s the perfect way to see who’s lurking nearby.
Last but definitely not least, if your granddaughter dreams of meeting the fairest one of all’s fiercest rival, I highly recommend booking dinner at
Story Book Dining at Artist Point with Snow White. It’s a truly enchanted experience! She’ll meet Snow White, a couple of the lovable dwarfs, and—best of all—the Evil Queen herself. And in true dramatic villain fashion, she’ll even summon you for a photo op at the end of your meal.
Ray, I hope this helps make your granddaughter’s villain quest a truly villainous delight. If you have any more questions, feel free to stop by again.
See you real soon,
Christina
