Tokyo Disney Halloween 2025 came to an end on October 31st.

I was not particularly a fan of Disney, but since visiting this year’s Disney Halloween, I became a big fan of Disney; thus, I will share the attractiveness of Tokyo Disney Halloween in 2025.

Halloween limited parade “into the frenzy”

Have you ever seen a parade at a Disney resort?

Usually, Tokyo Disney Land holds a parade three times a day, and each of them has a unique feature. While all parades gain a high popularity from fans, the Halloween limited parade called “Into the Frenzy” has immense popularity.

Explanation of the parade into the frenzy

The Villains Halloween ‘Into the Frenzy’ The daytime parade at Tokyo Disney Land, reborn after six years

In this parade, the main characters are Disney villains, and the theme is a Halloween party with villains.

As a name, “into the frenzy”, Disney villains invite us into the frenzy, and the area of the Tokyo Disney Resort gets extremely hyped!

  • Dancer’s Powerful Performance

In front of each villain, dancers perform wearing a similar costume to theirs. Their performance is one of the factors to boost the parade’s popularity. As a fact, I got obsessed with Disney Halloween mostly because of them. Their existence with similar costumes, facial expressions, and outstanding dance takes us into the world of the parade, and I could be so excited.

The 40-minute parade features a dance segment where the audience participates together. In the part, dancers come closer to us and stir us up so that we can move our hands more.

This moment is one of the parade’s highlights; please check it through the video.

  • Addicted Sounds of Music

The song creates a spooky atmosphere reminiscent of Halloween. The same rhythm is mostly repeated, but this repeated melody would be stuck in your ears.

You can listen to the 27-minute full version of the song through the music streaming service! 

My favorite part of the song is where it hits its peak with the powerful voice, “Oh!”(^^♪

Also, I get excited by imagining that villains sing the song while laughing creepily.

  • Popularity of the parade

The parade’s popularity is significant, as many fans wait long to see it before the show starts. 

If you want to watch the show in the front, you must begin waiting at least 5 hours before.

Those who wait for a long time are often called “Jizo (地蔵)” because their seated figures resemble those of Jizo statues.

Halloween costume in Disney

During the Disney Halloween period, we are able to be in costume.

This year, from 16th Sep to 30th Sep and 16th Oct to 31st Oct, wearing a costume was permitted.

Beyond my expectations, a lot of Disney fans are in full-scale costume; I could have so much fun even just walking in the park.
