The Disney Parks social media team teased two new villains coming to Oogie Boogie Bash. The teaser showed a Baby carriage, then a vase that seems to show Hercules like artwork, then a control panel that pans to a chair with a lab coat. Online folks are thinking it is Hades and Dr. Doofenshmirtz from “Phineas and Ferb.” - https://www.instagram.com/reel/C-Ij_YIJAMV/

With Oogie Boogie Bash only a few weeks away, some new merch has been unveiled for the event. A Minnie Winifred Sanderson sipper will be on sale at Hollywood Lounge, and the 2024 Oogie Boogie Bash Collection featuring a t-shirt, hoodie, headband, and more. The collection is available at Elias & Co., Gone Hollywood and the Merchandise Marketplace. - https://disneyland.disney.go.com/events-tours/disney-california-adventure/oogie-boogie-bash-halloween-party/

A new dining experience is coming to Storyteller’s Cafe in the fall. Mickey’s Autumn Adventures is coming to the location starting September 3rd. Characters will be dressed in new Fall attire for breakfast or brunch. - https://www.micechat.com/393233-disneyland-update-dead-er-together-d23-screams-haunted-happenings/ https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2024/08/04/reservations-now-open-for-disneys-special-fall-dining-experience/#more-960257

One of our favorite eateries in Downtown Disney has two locations for a limited time! Earl of Sandwich is now open at the temporary food truck near Star Wars Trading Post. The previous location near the esplanade is still open now as well. - https://www.micechat.com/393233-disneyland-update-dead-er-together-d23-screams-haunted-happenings/

Now that the Haunted Mansion is open for virtual queue guests, there are some new additions and changes spotted this year to the attraction. One that changes every year is the gingerbread house in the ballroom scene. This year it is a Dr. Finkelstein house that is trying on different gingerbread heads for the gingerbread body on the house. The Marc Davis bat in a cage has returned, but this year is in the hallway with the breathing doors. Two new jack-in-the-box figures are at the end of the attic, where the bride is usually at, and finally the ghosts who follow you home in the mirrors at the end are now projections, but you almost can’t tell! - https://www.micechat.com/393233-disneyland-update-dead-er-together-d23-screams-haunted-happenings/

Another new tiki mug is coming to Trader Sam’s. The Skipper’s Adventure Mug will release on August 8th and can be purchased through mobile order on the Disneyland App starting at 6am Disneyland time. The mug is themed to the Jungle Cruise. The artist Mookie Sato will be signing the mugs on August 8th from 11am - 1pm. - https://www.micechat.com/393233-disneyland-update-dead-er-together-d23-screams-haunted-happenings/
