If you wanted to stay overnight in Disneyland, where would be the best hiding place? Elaborate!

I'd kick back on Tom Sawyers Island. BBQ up some catfish that I would catch during the night. I'd find a bunk in the fort and use the head when needed. Enjoy watching Fantasmic from the backside. Enjoy the nightlife views of New Orleans Square reflecting from the water...
Or if I just wanted to be an outlaw and hide...
I'd climb up behind the Train Depot at NOS and walk over to the Jungle Cruise area and hide there amongst the savages...Comment

Well, that little shack-house near the festival of fools arena used to be great...but... I think Starcade floor 2 takes the cake. No one ever goes up there, it's secluded and spatious!"To All Who Come To This Happy Place, Welcome!

I've worked overnight Maint. in the park, and although there are some doozy hiding places, they're almost all used by the Maint./Cust. depts. If you haven't been in the park overnight, you wouldn't believe how the environment changes... Floodlights, people riding biges and driving trucks through the park... And stay away from the steam jets!!!Honor those who fall under the sword.
But pity the warrior who has slain all his enemies.

Even if you managed to remain unnoticed in your hiding place as the park closed what would you do then? As Reaver says the park is crawling with a custodial staff. You'd have to stay in your hiding place all night. Not much fun if you ask me.
Better to interview for a custodial position and request nighttime hours. That way you get to see the park at night and learn a bunch of hiding places and park secrets.
What if the Hokey-Pokey really is what it's all about?Comment

Well i used to work night custodial..and alotof peole think the park goes to sleep and the lights are off.. but thats actually the opposite.. there are many people that work at ngiht that clean the rides and turn on the maintance lights. the streets are usually filled with pressure washers so there always going to be someone around.. and like what everyone is saying you would have to stay in your hiding place all night.. youd probably get caught walking around if your not wearing the right uniform..I still ahev mine..Hahah i oculd probably still walk around at night..ahaha its the same as the maintance workers u seein the day time.. The blue plaid shirt.. ok anyways.. butmy suggestion in DL hide on Tom Sawyer and DCA hide in that tree maze area..but custodial also goes there and cleans.. Aww memories of being castmemeber and sleeping in golden dreams behind the screen,...HAHAHAH..We rock the party that rocks the party!We are truly a new generation of the Brady Bunch!Comment

Thank you for pointing that out GC. As long as the conversation stays within the realm of "What would you do if you were stuck in the park overnight" and not "How can I hide out in the park overnight" I think the thread should be ok. We don't want to get in trouble with Mickey Mouse.Originally posted by Gemini CricketNot to be the resident dork here, but please don't try doing this. You'll get caught and arrested...
Anything listed on the park maps as an attraction is fair game for inclusion in the Rally.
I cannot confirm nor deny the inclusion of any attraction in the Rally.

So, if Mickey Mouse invited me to sleep over at DL, I'd camp out at Tom Sawyer Island, sleep in the bed on POTC (without the skeleton) or stretch out next to the fireplace in the ballroom scene of the Haunted Mansion.

Oh yah forgot to tell you that too.. Procedures are to let a security guard know and let them know that you saw a guest in the park and where. If possible tell your lead. If you do get caugh after hours you will be taken to the security office backstage and have anahiem PD pick you up... :botox: its pretty much trespassing. But hey you would have seen back stage too..hahahha and yes they do clean tom swayer island..pretty much with a pan and broom kinda thing.. its pretty much horticultures area..Originally posted by Gemini CricketNot to be the resident dork here, but please don't try doing this.

Mickey Mouse was mean to me and said "Your not invited to my birthday party."

If Mickey Mouse invited me to sleep over at his park, I think I would want a slumber party inside the Tiki Room. If I had insomnia, I could sleep in the nursery in Peter Pan's Flight and count ships to help me fall asleep.Originally posted by Gemini CricketSo, if Mickey Mouse invited me to sleep over at DL, I'd camp out at Tom Sawyer Island, sleep in the bed on POTC (without the skeleton) or stretch out next to the fireplace in the ballroom scene of the Haunted Mansion.

If Mickey invited to stay over night at DL, I would like to sleep over inside the Tiki Room or IASW.

Personally I think some of those places would be downright creepy at night. *shudder*Comment

Why do you think they have so many floodlights on at night?!? Sure, they'll tell you it's so "they can see", but we all know the truth!Originally posted by Nephythys
Honestly, though, it can be spooky, even with so much light, and so many people. The park just doesn't look natural without all the guests, and I got some downright weird vibes there sometimes at night...
Knott's is like that too, though. I worked the Haunt tech crew for a few years, building the mazes overnight, and cruising through some of those streets at night (they don't floodlight the park like DL) can give you the willies...

Bring along snorkling gear, jump into the Jungle Cruise river, put on Island gear with spear, and "blend in" till closing. Then roam the park. Maybe head over to storybook land, and stomp around ala godzilla. Maybe try to scale matterhorn and zipline down the tink wires. Put on Billy Hill show in the Golden Horseshoe, complete with fake teeth. What a fun night!Marge: Barnacle Bill's Home Pregnancy Test? Homer, shouldn't we have gone with a better-known brand?

Homer: So, which is it? Blue or purple?
Marge: Pink.
