Halloween Merchandise Discount
As Halloween season comes to an end, Disney is looking to get rid of its inventory of spooky merchandise. Effective October 14, 2026, Magic Key annual passholders can receive up to 40% off select Halloween Time merchandise.
This includes the Disney Pastel Ghost Collection, aka the “cutie ghost” collection, which seemed to be popular earlier in the season.
Disney says the discount is valid at World of Disney at Downtown Disney and select other locations, though it didn’t specify additional stores by name.
Guests’ regular Magic Key discount can be used in addition to the 40% off for even more savings. That percentage varies based on the type of pass.
More Ongoing Magic Key Deals
In addition to the 2 newly announced perks described above, other previously revealed Magic Key deals are still ongoing.
Oogie Boogie Bash – A Disney Halloween Party continues at Disney California Adventure on select nights through October 31. Magic Key passholders attending the event can walk through an exclusive treat trail at Silly Symphony Swings to receive a free zipper pouch and stickers featuring Yzma and Kronk from The Emperor’s New Groove. An Oogie Boogie Magic Key t-shirt and pin are also available for purchase during the party.

A special straw clip of Ursula from The Little Mermaid is available for purchase just for Magic Key passholders.
