Invite your boo crew over for a movie-marathon sleepover complete with warm apple cider, pajamas, and tons of treats to munch on while you tap into the festivities of the spirited season. Along with a lineup of Disney classics, you’ll want to try some Disney Halloween recipes from TikTok that are based on some of your favorite spooky characters and ‘Gram-worthy treats served in the parks.

October is the time to side with the villains and listen to "Poor Unfortunate Souls" and "Oogie Boogie’s Song" on repeat.
