Guests attending the 2024 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party will be able to experience Magic Kingdom's newest attraction - Tiana's Bayou Adventure.

Tiana's Bayou Adventure construction - May 2 2024

According to an update on the official My Disney Experience app, Tiana's Bayou Adventure is included in the attraction line-up. Learn more about the 2024 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party.

Disney has previously said that Tiana's Bayou Adventure will open in the summer of 2024 but has yet to give us a date. The first Mickey's Not-SoScary Halloween party is on August 9, 2024.

It remains to be seen how the queue will operate during regular park hours or the party. We expect a Virtual Queue and Individual Lightning Lane purchase to be available during regular hours. For party nights, we could see either a Virtual Queue or a regular standby line—Disney has previously done both during hard ticket event nights with new attractions.

I'd opine that they chose to leave the significant gaps, but that's just me.

The scenery and props were designed for the Disneyland space so they had to leave significant gaps for Disneyworlds longer flume.

Yes, there is little implied motion in any of these figures, or steps of figure. It's bad storyboarding.

The other issue I have with the animatronics on Bayou is that everyone is just standing/sitting firmly on the ground. There's no dynamic or interesting poses that allow for interesting animation. Splash had Br'er Rabbit jumping along the fence, Br'er Bear in the tree and thrashing around on his back, Br’er Fox springing up from the background, the Possum babies above the river hanging by their tails, turtles being lifted by geysers, the entire riverboat rocking back and forth... Everything on Bayou just looks so static in comparison. Edit - Forgot about Rufus the Turtle who bobs back and forth slightly. But it's still a very simple animation loop.

Curious enough I met Troy Landry at the Poly in 2020 while it was open just for DVC and diners. Nice fellow.

They also don't interact much with each other and are very self contained vignettes that don't build to anything. Think of the geese who's fishing line has nabbed another's hat, or the fish that jumps through the empty net. Think of the vultures looking at each other and finishing the other's sentence. Think of the rabbits commenting on the Brers chasing each other while a projection effect plays in the background. All of that is gone...and the heavier reliance of screens makes the new scenes look physically flat. The ride's soundtrack is doing the heavy lifting of giving life to the scenes, not their staging or animation.

Shelby would run them over with his boat so we escape over the falls!

Yes, this. Both of this. I dunno if they really qualified as "evil", but yes, the film dig have frog hunters. It still would've been a major downgrade from Brer Fox, though... I don't think you could make those frog hunters threatening at all. I suppose they could've made up a brand new villain, but they probably couldn't be bothered (or they knew people would still be complaining that we got this new character instead of Facilier).

Louis wasn't made of wood. Bruce is one to be wary of.

They could of had this guy going after Louis...

Didn’t the movie have evil frog hunters or something like that? They could’ve introduced conflict with those guys going after the critters if they didn’t want to go the voodoo route. Could’ve been similar to Brer Fox or the witch from Snow White.

no, I guess I didn't...there was nothing memorable about them to me... I was really focused on trying to figure out what sort of entrepreneurial enterprise Tiana would get into after she got her prince and her dream of opening the restaurant...you know, the focus of the entire movie...lol
