Orlando Goes All In on Halloween: Must-Do Experiences for Spooky Season 2026

Halloween in Orlando isn’t one night. It’s almost three months. This year, Orlando has 94 straight days of Halloween, through November 8.

Disney’s Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party opened on its earliest start date yet. On select nights at Magic Kingdom through October 31, you’ll find trick-or-treat trails, the Boo-to-You parade, Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular, and a new Stitch masquerade dance party in Tomorrowland.

Universal’s Halloween Horror Nights is in its 35th year. There are 10 new houses this season, including Jack and Oddfellow together for the first time and an Ozzy Osbourne house.

SeaWorld is running three Halloween events. Spooktacular is the daytime option and is included with admission. Howl-O-Scream is the separately ticketed night event, with new houses including one based on I Know What You Did Last Summer. There’s also a Howl-O-Sprint 5K if you want to run through the scare zones.

LEGOLAND’s Brick-or-Treat expanded to 18 days. Candy cauldrons, a new glow trail, and the Monster Skytacular drone show make it an easy pick if you’re travelling with younger kids.

Outside the parks, Spooky Empire (October 30–November 1) is a big horror convention with guests like Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis. Dr. Phillips Center has Evil Dead The Musical and a live organ score for Nosferatu on Halloween night.

If you’re already in town or planning a trip, start at VisitOrlando.com and filter by date and scare level. If you’ve got kids, aim for the daytime events included with park admission. If you want the full scare, book Horror Nights or Howl-O-Scream.
