I took my wife because it was advertised as limited tickets. I kept reading crowds would be low. It was more crowded that night than all the regular days we were there!! The great lines were soooooo long. Character greetings were up to 3 hours. We even went on a tuesday. The parade was nice, as was the fireworks, but we had to wait an hour to leave or get trampled on! Very disappointed.
Pros:
Fireworks, paradeCons:
Crowds were worse I've ever experiencedReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 09/28/2019

Went on 9/22. 4th year in a row. Horribly crowded. This year, 2019, Disney sold unlimited season passes!! Greed and crowds ruined MNSSHP. Save your money. Lines were outrageous compared to previous years when lines were very short. Much less crowded earlier in the day before MNSSHP.
Pros:
NoneCons:

Awful!!! We went on Friday (9/13), the park was so crowded you could barely walk. Wait for SDMT was 50 minutes. We will never do this again.

I had the pleasure of taking a co-worker to the party on 9/21/18. It was her first time visiting any park, so it was thrilling just for that fact. We dressed up and had a wonderful time. Ride lines were terrific (maybe 10 min average) & the Meet/Greet lines were maybe 15-25 min.
Pros:
short lines and able to see the whole park !!!Cons:
Candy lines were pretty long, but it didn't deter us at all.Reviewed by prncsmom Review Date: 09/25/2016

This was our first time attending the party and will likely be our last. We attended on Tuesday, September 20, 2016. We arrived early (we had park hopper passes for the week) and the park was already hopping - unbeknownst to us this was a night Disney offered discount admissions to cast members, so it added to the crowds. We got our bags and wrist bands and then the down pour happened. People were trying to take cover while they cleared out the park of non-party attendees. It was a bit chaotic to say the least. The trick or treat lines were long and going from station to station ate up a bulk of our time. We did a ride or two, but it was that or wait for character photos and not trick or treat. We did manage to see the second parade because we stopped to take a break and the cast member said now would be a good time to secure seats. It was a good, but not great parade. We did see some of the last of the night Hocus Pocus show - our son was tired and we decided to leave a bit early...as well as everyone else did staying at the resorts. Getting a bus back to the hotel was not easy and the drivers were impatient and frankly a bit rude to cram as many people on as they could - the other passengers who had never attended felt the party wasn't worth the price either. That was a theme we ran into for the remainder of the week - just not worth it. For the money - use it for park hoppers or add the water park or treat yourself to something nice to take home - the party was average and not worth it in our opinion.
Pros:
Lots of CandyCons:
Over crowded, tremendously long waits for photos, hard to see the parade, show and trick or treatReviewed by BarbD Review Date: 09/21/2016

It was so crowded and we couldn't enjoy the shows, people were placing their kids on their shoulders (which I can understand) but it made it so difficult to enjoy the show. Line for rides too long. Didn't even bother. Was like being there during the day. Parade crowds were 6 rows deep, couldn't really see. They were directing the crowds throughout the park which made it seem like the park was even smaller. I went years ago and it was an amazing experience, on and off the rides you could see the shows and parades. Sad to say but I think Disney is becoming way too crowded and no longer enjoyable.
