Hi, Melissa! Everyone loves a good villain, don't they? They've become somewhat of a rarity at the Most Magical Place on Earth. However, with some planning and luck, you can find a few Disney villains around the Walt Disney World theme parks.
Your best chance to see one of these baddies is at Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party, where you'll see the likes of Jafar, Cruella de Vil, and the Queen of Hearts. This won't help you much since you're visiting in April, but keep it in mind for a future trip!
Another idea is to book a character meal.
Storybook Dining at Artist Point is a dining experience with a prix fixe menu fit for royalty. Snow White is the star of the show here with her friends Dopey and Grumpy, but the Evil Queen makes an appearance at the end of your meal, and she might be willing to pose for a selfie with you. Lady Tremaine and the stepsisters, Anastasia and Drizella, can be found at the
1900 Park Fare dinner at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. They also hang out at Magic Kingdom right behind Cinderella Castle. While in Magic Kingdom, you'll also run into Gaston by his tavern in Fantasyland. He is very popular, so be prepared to wait. He also loves to compare his muscles!
The Pirates & Pals Fireworks Dessert Voyage is the place to find those scallywags, Mr. Smee and Captain Hook. The voyage occurs nightly, and can be booked through the Walt Disney World website.
If your daughter is looking for a souvenir, Melissa, look for the Disney Villains Jogger Pants at several locations on property including the Emporium on Main Street, because sometimes, "It's Good to be Bad!"
