MNSSHP Rookie....Help a girl out!

I have been once with a good friend to MNSSHP and I was hooked!!

I have vowed to take my 2 sons this year!

Just found out as an AP holder I get a discount! Yeah!

Now, the question which admittedly is a dumb question.

Is the actual night of Halloween the busiest of all nights typically?
I know when I went with my friend it did not seem crowded at all.

The thought of actually going Halloween night sounds so fun, BUT, not if it's crazy.

So I'm also exploring doing a weekday one and staying overnight in value resort.

What say you in your opinions PRO MNSSHP goers?

Yup, dumb question. Just saw there is nothing for Halloween night! We're thinking end of September for us!!
Can't wait to surprise my boys with it :)
