On select nights from August 17 through October 31, a spine-chilling squad of iconic Disney characters (and some rarely-seen favorites) will cause plenty of mischievous fun at Oogie Boogie Bash for guests of all ages across Disney California Adventure park, whether you’re dressed as a poised princess, a galactic defender, or a fearless Super Hero.

Chocolate candy, signature sweets, and plenty of sinister surprises are surely some of the things to look forward to at Oogie Boogie Bash, but everyone knows that the villainous treat trail characters are the true stars of the show!

Whether you’re waiting to roll the dice on an opportunity to see Oogie Boogie from Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas in Hollywood Land or sing a secret song with Ernesto de la Cruz from Pixar Animation Studios’ Coco near the Hyperion Theater, there are so many legendary Disney villains that you will only be able to spot at California Adventure during Oogie Boogie Bash!

Look Out for These Chilling Characters During the “Frightfully Fun Parade”

Ready for a grim, grinning good time that can only be found during Oogie Boogie Bash? When Ichabod Crane tiptoes through California Adventure and the Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow carries a flickering jack-o-lantern in his gloved hand, there’s truly no turning back as the “Frightfully Fun Parade” surges with spirited sights.

Filled with memorable appearances from select characters, here are some familiar faces you may spot during your showing of this late-night parade at California Adventure:

Characters During the “Frightfully Fun Parade”
  • Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse in colorful Halloween attire
  • Jack Skellington, Sally, and other characters from Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas
  • Dr. Facilier from Disney Animation’s The Princess and the Frog
  • Ursula from Disney’s Animation’s The Little Mermaid
  • Mother Gothel from Disney Animation’s Tangled
  • Cruella de Vil from Disney Animation’s One Hundred and One Dalmatians
  • Captain Hook from Disney Animation’s Peter Pan
  • Many more fan favorite characters

There are a ton of highlights from start to finish, but my favorite part of the show is when select characters from Haunted Mansion begin to materialize, as swirling ballroom dancers, ominous gravediggers, and a trio of hitchhiking ghosts get ready for a swinging wake with silly spooks and ghoulish delight. Look alive and come out to socialize during this can’t-miss parade!
