AboutSara Expertise I can answer questions on most things to do with Walt Disney World - the resorts, the 4 major parks, the restaurants and the Disney Cruise Line.
Experience I have stayed at or been to 90% of the resorts, ridden virtually every ride, eaten at many restaurants - both sit-down and counter service and cruised on the Disney Magic and Disney Wonder. I have traveled to Walt Disney World over 10 times and plan vacations for myself as well as friends and family every year.

Question If my travel plans are flexible withing October, is there any reason I should avoid WDW during the last week of Oct? I picked that week due to the nice weather, a slower time of year, etc but now wondering if it will be a "zoo" due to Halloween. And if I keep travel plans for that week, which night should I do the MNSSHP to avoid crowds? Either the 26th or the 28th would be the better ones, I believe. Thoughts about this week and this event? Thanks, will be travelling with 2 preschoolers and 2 teenagers.
Answer There are two weeks in October that are more crowded than others - Columbus Day week and Halloween week. The closer you get to Halloween, the more crowded MNSSHP is. If you can, I recommend traveling the week in between these two holidays - Oct 19 - 25th. Good luck! It's a wonderful time of year in WDW and a lot of fun.
