Halloween has landed at Disney Springs, and this year, Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar is embracing the spooky season like never before. Known for its adventurous Indiana Jones–inspired theming and rotating seasonal overlays, the Hangar Bar has officially unveiled its first-ever Halloween transformation. Guests can now enjoy eerie décor, festive flavors, and a mysterious backstory that feels right at home in Jock’s adventurous world.

A New Halloween Tradition at the Hangar Bar

While fans have long loved the “Holiday Hangar Bar” at Christmastime, this marks the bar’s debut into Halloween territory. For the 2025 season, the entire venue has been draped in nostalgic 1940s-inspired Halloween décor—think vintage lanterns, flickering Jack-o’-lanterns, black cat cutouts, and glowing retro blow molds.

From pumpkin-headed scarecrows at the entrance to Beistle-style black cats peering down from the rafters, the transformation mixes whimsy with just the right touch of fright. The result is a cozy yet mysterious retreat, as if Jock himself threw a Halloween party straight out of a bygone era. Even references to The Rocketeer can be spotted among the decorations, making this overlay as rich in Disney lore as it is in atmosphere.

Who is Jock Lindsey?

For those new to the Hangar Bar’s story, Jock Lindsey is Indiana Jones’ trusty pilot who “discovered” Disney Springs in 1938. Enchanted by the springs and Central Florida’s charm, he set up shop on the waterfront, creating the Hangar Bar as a base for his adventures. Packed with memorabilia, nods to Indiana Jones, and ties to Disney’s Society of Explorers and Adventurers (S.E.A.), the bar has become a fan-favorite spot for explorers of all ages.

Celebrate Halloween at Disney Springs

Whether you’re stopping in for a cocktail under the watchful eyes of black cats, or sharing dumplings with friends inside the diving bell surrounded by Jack-o’-lanterns, Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar makes for a must-visit this spooky season. The Halloween makeover runs through November 4, so gather your crew, don your adventurous spirit, and prepare for a night of festive fun at Disney Springs.
