CarsLand Rules Halloween





In the last couple of years, California Adventure has really stepped up their Halloween game. From the steaming Headless Horseman statue to the purple lights in front of the bat infested Carthay Circle, its the place to be for a spooky vibe. But best of all, is CarsLand! We had a team over at DCA last weekend taking pics of all the amazing Halloween fun, so follow along and see why we think CarsLand is the winner of Halloween this year.

Have a happy Haul-O-Ween! A new welcome sign greets you as you enter CarsLand.
A monster face with sharp cone teeth hangs over the street to watch over you.

Hang out in the spider car over at Flo's.
Mater's Graveyard JamBOOree has all different Halloween themed music, and some spooky messages on the grills of old cars while you wait in line.





And our favorite tractor is dressed as a mummy! (A "moomy?" Is that too much?)
Luigi and Guido have Halloween music ready for their ride too. It's Luigi's Honkin' Haul-O-Ween!

Sarge has a gas can pumpkin patch and a spider clinging on to the side of his garage.


The cones aren't looking too cozy this time of year!

Mater is greeting guests in his Halloween costume!
Lizzie's store has to be the spookiest of them all. She really went all out!

She's even ready for kids to come Trunk or Treat!
Want to see a Halloween movie? The residents of CarsLand are looking forward to Hocus Spokus!
This amazing sugar skull car is out in front of Ramone's store.

Inside Ramone's is a Dia de los Muertos ofrenda for Doc! I love it!



 What do you all think? Does CarsLand take the (spooky) cake, or what?
