Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort hotels includes a guest-only treat trail, October pumpkin activities and seasonal displays at all three properties in 2026. A separate fall room offer covers select stays from October 11 through December 18.
Halloween activities for hotel guests
The complimentary Halloween Time Treat Trail is reserved for registered Disneyland Resort hotel guests. The Front Desk provides a wristband, goodie guide and treat bag. Overnight guests can also join complimentary movie nights, Learn to Draw sessions and Washcloth Creation classes. Ask the hotel Front Desk for a schedule of hotel activities during your stay.
At the Disneyland Hotel, a professional pumpkin carver will give demonstrations on select dates from October 13 through October 31, 2026. Guests can decorate faux pumpkins on select October weekdays at the Disneyland Hotel and Pixar Place Hotel.
Displays at all three hotels
Pixar Place Hotel has seasonal Monsters, Inc. artwork featuring Mike, Sulley and Boo. Disney artist Brett Snodgrass helped create the designs. See the Pixar Place Hotel makeover for the artist’s design story.
At the Disneyland Hotel, Haunted Mansion-inspired displays feature the four figures from the attraction’s stretching room. Wrought iron gates make another photo stop. Near Goofy’s Kitchen, a five-foot Mickey Mouse pumpkin confectionery display hides 13 Mickeys.
Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa has a Nightmare Before Christmas confection depicting Jack Skellington, Sally and Zero on Spiral Hill, with Oogie Boogie and the Mayor. The pastry team spent more than 800 hours on the display. The work used 140 pounds of fondant, 175 pounds of chocolate, 150 pounds of powdered sugar, 105 pounds of rice cereal and 38 pounds of marshmallows.
Dining and hotel benefits
Seasonal character dining includes Mickey’s Autumn Adventures breakfast or brunch and Clarabelle’s Enchanted Halloween Dinner at Storytellers Cafe in the Grand Californian. Goofy’s Kitchen at the Disneyland Hotel serves a Halloween breakfast, brunch and dinner buffet. Advance reservations are recommended; check Disneyland’s current availability before planning a meal.
Other hotel dining locations with seasonal items include The Sketch Pad Café at Pixar Place Hotel, GCH Craftsman Grill and the Great Hall Cart at the Grand Californian. Tenaya Stone Spa at the Grand Californian offers Halloween-inspired hair, makeup and nail designs, plus a Wicked to the Core foot treatment with a caramel-scented soak and candy-apple scrub. Spa services cost extra.
Registered hotel guests receive one complimentary Lightning Lane entry for a Lightning Lane Multi Pass attraction during their stay. Overnight benefits also include preferred access to hotel dining reservations and character encounters on select days.
