Hagrid’s Holiday Creatures Motorbike Adventure

In order to make the most popular ride at their resort even more popular, Universal Orlando is adding an original Christmas-themed story to Hagrid’s motorbike coaster. In this class, Hagrid sets students out to search for magical holiday creatures (such as unicorns, fairies, dragons, and other creatures based on already existing Christmas mythological creatures) on a wild adventure through the snowy Forbidden Forest, where students experience a ride that is about as magical and wild as the normal version of this coaster.​

Toy Story Christmas Carnival!

​

Toy Story Midway Mania! is an obvious choice for a holiday overlay - after all, it's a ride about toys. Mr. Potato Head is clad in a Santa suit, holiday decorations are scattered all over the ride, and each game gets a Christmassy overlay - for example, "Hamm 'n' Eggs" now has riders throwing snowballs at wind-up reindeer, "Buzz Lightyear's Flying Tossers" involves tossing plush toys into brightly-colored boxes (which the Aliens promptly wrap up), and "Rex and Trixie's Dino Darts" is temporarily swapped out for a new game hosted by Wheezy; where popping frost-covered balloons causes riders to be hit with a blast of "snow".

Holly Jolly Tower of Terror

​

During the holiday season, the Hollywood Tower Hotel of Terror at Disney's Hollywood Studios undergoes a frightfully magical transformation, changing it into the Holly Jolly Tower of Terror, adorned with festive decorations, including strings of twinkling lights and garlands of holly. Instead of the usual tale of a haunted hotel, Guests are now transported back in time to a bustling Christmas Eve party at the Hollywood Tower Hotel, where they hear cheerful holiday music and see glimpses of Guests enjoying themselves just before a fierce storm rolls in, causing the elevator to malfunction and plummet down the tower back to the present day, where they must face the eerie ghosts of the hotel getting into the spirit of the season.

Welcome one and all to the first prompt of One Sentence Competition: Holiday Fun! In our first prompt we're celebrating the what many look forward to each year the classic holiday overlay over a beloved attraction. In years past many major theme parks have moved to do these overlays to offer guests a reason to revisit old classic examples include Jingle Cruise at Magic Kingdom, Living with the Land: Merry and Bright at Epcot, Holiday Vibes at Alien Swirling Sauces and the Haunted Mansion Holiday at Disneyland. These events take a particular attraction and inject it with either a little or a lot of holiday magic to encourage repeat riders. It's a great way to keep things fresh for guests, and now it is your turn to create a holly jolly overlay for any attraction at any park of your choosing.

Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway: Winter Spectacular!
Disney's Hollywood Studios, Walt Disney World

Toontown and Runnamuck Park are getting decked out for the holidays, but in a world where mouse rules apply, nothing ever goes as planned, especially when a certain duck is insistent on staying over for the winter holidays! Join the gang as they try to literally "duck the halls" (a.k.a. help paint the town in red, green, and gold — you know, Christmassy colors — and keep an eye out for one delirious duck who's way too much in the holiday spirit) through state-of-the-art "2 1/2-D" technology, newly-transformed show scenes, new 4D effects in your runaway holiday trains (e.g.: hidden air jets and mist sprays, etc.; new permanent additions to the overall facilities), a dazzling new musical score from husband-and-wife musicians Christopher and Elyse Willis (Mickey Mouse shorts, The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse on Disney+), and a zany yet heartwarming holiday tale about friendship, family, and of course, a touch of holiday magic.​

Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover: Cosmic Christmas​

Walt Disney World’s PeopleMover gets decked out for the holidays with garland streaming from the roofs, colorful LED panels along the railings, lively Christmas music plucked from an orchestra of the future, and festive decals on the peoplemovers as we see how the denizens of Tomorrowland celebrate their Christmas. This would also coincide with a much need overhaul for the PeopleMover where one of the major highlights is the addition of more dioramas, including one of Tomorrowland’s city square where; in the Christmas overlay; holiday makers make their ways around a Christmas market like the one above.

MR. TOAD'S MERRY SLEIGH RIDE

We shall be merrily on our way this Christmas, as J. Thaddeus Toad develops a yuletide mania for a sleigh ride, taking guests on a wintry wild ride through his snowed in house and out into the streets of London. Instead of travelling into Hell, our sleighs (which lack reindeer and are "sliding" about on their own) crash through a hidden workshop where Winky and his weasel gang are trying to steal Christmas presents, thwarting their plans, before returning to Toad's home where he and his friends celebrate a Christmas victory!

Star War: Galactic Starcrusier: Life Day Trip

For the holiday season, the Halcyon is bringing that Life Day spirit onboard by letting guests immerse themselves in the celebrations with a new storyline and activities. (Most of the main plot from the regular version is still intact, because paying at least $5000 and not getting the advertised experience is the only decision dumber than making this cost at least $5000 in the first place)
