Why different prices for MNSSHP?

[Atomicmickey]

Anyone know why, specifically, the October 9, 15, and 23 dates cost more? Does something different happen on those days?

*hoping that I'll be there for one of those days* :sohappy:

Nothing different, as far as I know. The non-discounted dates are just the dates that Disney knows they will sell out no matter what, so why offer a discount on them? They'll offer the discounts on the dates that they might have trouble selling out.

Yes, something different happens. Bigger crowds show up.

Thanks for the replies. Sounds good, I'll have to strategize this.

Here I thought there might be 10 percent more ghosts.

But there'll just be 10 percent more people dressed up as ghosts!

Any recommendations for what sorts of comfy costumes to wear?

I was thinking I might go like a tourist dressed in a Disney World
shirt. Just think of the hilarity!:lol:

I have done a fair bit of costuming and the most comfortable one I have worn was my Jedi costume. The least comfortable....a Borg.
