Disneyland Paris Update Part 2 : DLP Halloween Season Report


Here we go for a new Disneyland Paris update, this time with a Halloween season pictorial report thanks to Max Fan, D&M contributor and Dlrp Welcome webmaster.

In this first part of his report Max is back with great pictures of the Halloween decor which is slightly different than the one last year, with two new photo locations with Halloween ghosts and most of the ghosts had an update with different colors. The orange and black flags are also cool and give an american touch.






Here are the two new Halloween photo locations on Town Square.





Halloween bands now play on Town Square as well as behind the castle, as we will see later.



Let's have a look at all the different ghosts all along Main Street and up to Central Plaza.













On Central Plaza, just like last year guests can see huge sculpted pumpkins of Mickey and friends, the two new ones this year being Daisy and Pluto.




Also new this year is this Minnie photo location with her sewing shop.







Here comes Minnie!


Let's move to Frontierland where the pumpkin men costumes have this year a slightly - and pretty cool - different design.











Mr Jack photo location has a new fountain and there is another meet and greet with Minnie near the Silver Spur Steakhouse.



Here comes Minnie again!


Another Halloween orchestra playing creepy times can be found near the riverboats landing.



At Fantasyland DLP guests can meet Disney Villains in the castle courtyard.





And there is also another Halloween orchestra playing there too!


Max also filmed a video showing the different orchestras playing!

Who Will Be the Aliens in Iron Man Experience ?


If you had a close look to the artwork officially released for the announcement of HKDL Iron Man Experience you probably noticed the strange creatures which seems to be the aliens against whom Iron Man will be fighting. If you didn't see the rendering, here it is.


Of course Disney and Marvel fans tried to find who in the Marvel Villains mythology could have inspired the Iron Man Experience creatures. And, according to Screamscape, one of his reader told Lance that they look very similar to the Hydra Octopus Robots that appeared in the Marvel Animated series "although most Hydra equipment are painted in green and here in black".


Well, they indeed look very similar with their multi legs looking like tentacles, although WDI seems to have redesigned a bit the mouth and eyes on the faces. The other thing which is in favor of the Hydra Octopus Robots is that they can go inside water. And i remind you that the action of Iron Man Experience movie will take place at Hong Kong which as everyone know is an island...

So, can you put your bets on these Hydra Octopus Robots as Iron Man Experience aliens? I think so, and so far they are the closest we've found to the creatures that we can see on the WDI renderings... Or they might have served as inspiration for a new kind of villain... But we might have to wait until 2016 to have the final answer! In the meantime you can learn more about the Hydra Octopus Robots HERE.
