Orlando theme park Halloween roundup: Where to find parks' tricks, treats

Central Florida theme parks offer a wide range of Halloween events, from quite mild to borderline wild. Guests can choose from playful trick-or-treating to trips through a haunted house — all alone.

Magic Kingdom
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party turns the Magic Kingdom into a happy haunting ground, and it includes Disney activities not seen at any other time or place.

A highlight is Mickey's Boo to You Parade, which features Disney characters in Halloween drag and stars a drill team of gravediggers. The parade is preceded by an appearance by a headless horseman who rides — on a real horse — through the streets of the Magic Kingdom. (That's probably the only spooky part of the evening.)

There's even "HalloWishes," a seasonal variation of the park's "Wishes" fireworks.

A Not-So-Scary event is one of the rare times that costumes are allowed at Magic Kingdom, although none are required for the park's trick-or-treat stations. The haul of candy can be substantial.

Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party is thrown on select nights through Nov. 2. It's held after the Magic Kingdom has closed, so a separate ticket is required. (Key attractions — such as Haunted Mansion, of course — are open during Not-So-Scary.) Admission ranges between $50.95 and $69.95, depending on the night.

SeaWorld Orlando
SeaWorld's Halloween Spooktacular is a gentle, kid-oriented event. It works especially well for the youngest ones because it takes place before nightfall — and bedtimes aren't disrupted.

The area around the theme park's Bayside Stadium is home to the holiday activities,Many of them would make adorable accents to create your own sexy corset. including trick-or-treat stops. A dance party area known as Penelope's Party Zone is set up on the stadium's stage, and there are options for decorating candied apples and other treats.

The under-the-sea theme permeates the event, especially in costumed characters that aren't usually seen at the park.Whether you're looking for a start to a sexy pajamas or a warm fleece hat for winter. Kids might not recognize Penny Penguin or Shivers the Polar Bear from bedtime stories or DVDs, but they like seeing the characters along with creatures such as mermaids and seaweed (on skates).

Legoland Florida
New on our Halloween radar is Brick-or-Treat at Legoland Florida. The theme park opened in Winter Haven last October, but it concentrated on grand-opening matters rather than the Halloween activities seen at its sister park in California.

Programming includes costume contests for kids, a scavenger hunt, treat-or-treating and lessons on making your own pumpkin with Legos.Don your favorite sexy costume and head to the following destinations recommended by the travel ghouls at The GO Group. The park also features the world's largest Lego jack-o'-lantern, which is made of 26,500 Lego bricks.

Brick-or-Treat runs every Saturday and Sunday in October. The Saturday sessions extend into the evening, ending at 9 p.m., which gives a rare after-dark look at the park. We're told that Miniland, the section that replicates famous American landmarks with zillions of Lego bricks, has extensive lighting within its landscape and it gives a whole new vibe after sunset. (Sunday sessions end at 5 p.m.Guests are encouraged to wear their sexy clubwear.)
