JoJo’s World: Halfway to Halloween

JoJo and Krista arrive at Port Orleans Riverside resort for a Disney “Halfway to Halloween” media event. They check into their hotel room and find a goodie bag from Disney. In the bag are Halloween-themed Mickey ears, a Mickey plush, and a container of M&Ms with “JoJo’s World” printed on them. “That’s so freaking cute!” Krista exclaims.

JoJo states that it’s currently 7 pm, and his schedule is a face makeup appointment at 8 pm and a bus to Magic Kingdom at 10 pm.

After having spent the day with his family, JoJo is hungry. He and Krista head to River Roost Lounge and order a large charcuterie board. JoJo is impressed by the food, saying, “It looks awesome. Lots of different food. Yummy, yummy, yummy, yummy.”

After eating all but the nuts, JoJo hurries to his makeup appointment for a spooky Halloween makeover. During the appointment, he makes a point of saying, “this is like probably the second time ever I’ve gotten makeup done. I don’t wear makeup.” Macho JoJo.

After getting the makeup done, JoJo talks to TikToker Alice Payne, who is dressed as a combination of Maleficent and Aurora.

Back in their room, JoJo checks out the makeup more closely, making faces at himself, which he does throughout the rest of the video whenever he looks at the camera. They return to River Roost, where they see Yehaa Bob perform. JoJo comments, “I’m not going to lie, I kind of get the hype. He’s fun.” He sees Alice again and also greets Emily Nelson.

They board the bus and head to Magic Kingdom, where they ride the Haunted Mansion. On the Liberty Belle Riverboat, they discover a special Halloween drink menu and an open bar. They try the Purple People Eater drink, and JoJo says, “For me, it tastes like a frozen popsicle, a melted popsicle, melted purple popsicle.” There’s also food, candy for trick-or-treating, and a display of Disney Halloween merchandise.

On a restroom break back on land, JoJo provides a tour of the men’s Rapunzel restroom, taking advantage of its emptiness to show off the themed decorations.

Outside of the Haunted Mansion, he talks to Madame Carlotta and Madame Renatta. There’s also a DJ at the entrance to the attraction and gravediggers walking around.

The guests attend a dessert party inside the Haunted Mansion stretching room, where JoJo is impressed by the themed snacks, saying, “This is insane. We’re literally in the Haunted Mansion just having a ‘stretch room tart’ right now.”

They return to Port Orleans Riverside, and Krista declares it was her best birthday ever (it was her birthday that day). JoJo ends the vlog, reflecting on the night and thanking Disney for an invitation to the special event.
