A guest attended Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at Magic Kingdom as one of the terrifying Wheelers from Disney’s 1985 “Return to Oz.”
‘Return to Oz’ Wheeler Costume
In “Return to Oz,” the Wheelers are humanoids who move around on all fours, with wheels for hands and feet. They wear helmets with grisly masks on top.
TikTok user @dontforgettosetthealarm (Rhed) re-created a Wheeler costume, including the helmet and rollerblades. Rhed wore the costume to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party on Sunday night.
See the costume in action on TikTok:
Adults aren’t usually allowed to wear costumes to Disney theme parks, but certain events like Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party are exceptions. However, there are still strict guidelines, and skates like those used in the Wheeler costume are technically prohibited by overall park rules.
The full Halloween costume guidelines are below.
Costume Guidelines
Proper attire, including shoes and shirts, must be worn at all times. The parks are a casual, family-oriented environment. Ensuring that the parks are family-friendly is an important part of the Disney experience. In that spirit, we ask you to use your discretion and common sense.
Inappropriate Attire
Disney reserves the right to deny admission to or remove any person wearing attire that is considered inappropriate or attire that could detract from the experience of other Guests. Attire that is not appropriate for the parks—and which may result in refusal of admittance—includes but is not limited to:
- Costumes and costume masks, which may not be worn by Guests 14 years of age or older.
Exceptions:
- Specific Halloween and Christmas events. See below.
- Some outfits inspired by Star Wars. Learn more
- Clothing with objectionable material, including obscene language or graphics
- Excessively torn clothing
- Clothing which, by nature, exposes excessive portions of the skin that may be viewed as inappropriate for a family environment
- Clothing that touches or drags on the ground
- Clothing with multiple layers is subject to search upon entry
- Objectionable tattoos
