Two party-exclusive popcorn buckets are available at Magic Kingdom during Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party 2026.

The Hatbox Ghost Bucket and Headless Horseman Bucket are both available exclusively on party nights, with two additional Halloween-themed sippers available during regular park hours as well.

The Party-Exclusive Buckets

Both exclusive buckets are available at popcorn carts near Cinderella Castle on party nights only.

Hatbox Ghost Bucket — A blue cylindrical bucket with a clear window panel displaying a sculpted glowing teal Hatbox Ghost head inside, complete with a themed crossbody strap. The design is directly inspired by the iconic Haunted Mansion character and is one of the standout collectibles of the 2026 season.

Headless Horseman Bucket — A detailed sculpted figure of the Headless Horseman on a rearing black horse, holding a flaming jack-o'-lantern aloft. This one doubles as a display piece and is likely to be among the fastest-selling items on party nights.

Both buckets are limited to two per person per transaction, and quantities are limited each night.

Also Available: Halloween Pooh Sipper and Vampire Mickey Bucket

Two additional Halloween-themed options are available during regular park hours as well as party nights — no party ticket required to purchase these.

Halloween Pooh Sipper — Available exclusively at the popcorn cart near Pinocchio Village Haus.

Vampire Mickey Bucket — Available at multiple locations across the park:

  • Adventureland — near Jungle Cruise
  • Liberty Square — near Liberty Tree Tavern
  • Fantasyland — Maurice's Popcorn near Gaston's Tavern
  • Frontierland — near Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Café and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Tips for Getting Your Bucket

Both party-exclusive buckets are sold while supplies last, and based on past seasons these types of collectibles tend to go quickly — particularly on opening night and popular October dates. A few things worth knowing:

  • Head to the popcorn carts near Cinderella Castle early in the evening if the Hatbox Ghost or Headless Horseman bucket is a priority
  • The purchase limit is two per person per transaction
  • The Halloween Pooh Sipper and Vampire Mickey Bucket can be purchased during the day if you have regular park admission, so you don't need to wait for a party night for those two items

All items are available while supplies last. Availability is subject to change without notice.

I have attended the Party many times over the last several years and have always brought my own large 'Trick or Treat' bag. Never had any issues and often received compliments. By the end of the evening, CMs are often literally shoveling their leftover candies into it! The Park often sells larger 'Trick or Treat' themed tote bags or novelty candy holding containers in the various shops on Main Street as well. Happy Haunting! -

The original costumes also helped pop the bunting and pumpkins especially on Main Street. They were such great compliments to each other.

They have also in the past sold larger trick or treat bags, I'm sure they still do. One year I did it, we had 9lb of candy by the end of the event.

Excellent. We’re leaving kiddos home, but they’re more likely to forgive me if I bring bags of candy.

Gringrinngghost3 days ago

In the past I've filled up the first bag and then was given a second bag easily.

Think they will let us take an extra bag for my kiddo?

Themed entertainment is a huge improvement over a dj.
