The night starts with a ghost story by Mickey the Pirate, who will captivate the audience with a brand-new tale this year.

Guests can snap a photo with a wicked Mermaid and enjoy performances from dancers from Studio FuZion

For adults, the Cocktail Walk offers a frighteningly good time. A $25.00 ticket and punch card grant access to four spooky cocktails at various resort locations. Cocktail Walk attendees will use their punch card to grab one cocktail at each bar: Coastal Kitchen, The Island Grille, The Grotto, and Tripp Tide Bar. After the night ends, the Cocktail Walk punch card can be redeemed for 20% off food at Coastal Kitchen from November 1 to November 30, 2024. 

The highlight of the night will be the Halloween costume contest, where guests of all ages can wear their best costumes for a chance to win a prize. The contest will be split into three categories, with the winner in each category receiving a fun Halloween-themed prize and trophy. 

  1. Category One: Ages 0-11.
