Construction of Disneyland began on July 21, 1954. The park officially opened its doors to the public on July 17, 1955. Located in Anaheim, California, it was the first theme park created by Walt Disney and has since become a model for amusement parks worldwide.
Along with the addition of (the then-named) Disney's California Adventure Park, the Downtown Disney District, two new hotels, and the Mickey and Friends tram route and parking structure in 2001, Disneyland Park was officially expanded, encompassed within the new "Disneyland Resort", which we all know today.
Yes, there are plans for Disney Parks and Resorts to expand "Disneyland Resort", because The Walt Disney Company is reviving approx. MORE than 100 franchises due to The World's Grand Revival. Construction will finally start in 2017, and opening dates are being scheduled for 2021/2022. The following includes the Disneyland Park, Disney's California Adventure Park, the Disneyland Water Park, Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel, the Disneyland Hotel, Downtown Disney District, and Downtown Disney District East. It is definitely going to happen in 2015 and 2016; also, news will be reported and sources will be given very soon.
Only if you go through Anaheim in California.

Halloween Screams is a fireworks show during Halloween Time at Disneyland. It was produced by Walt Disney Creative Entertainment and held nightly in 2009.
I don't know about Disney World, but Disneyland definitely does have a hatbox ghost; he's near the end of the ride (in the "attic" just before the Doom Buggies start down the hill to the graveyard).
Yes. Now the company that he made and that is named after him can start new parks and do many other things, but he started it all.

Disney opened in July 17, 1955 on 160 acres of former orange groves. Construction began in 1954.
Walt Disney came up with the concept of Disneyland after visiting various amusement parks with his daughters in the 1930s and 1940s. After hiring a consultant to help determine an appropriate site for his project, Walt bought a 160-acre (65 ha) site near Anaheim in 1953. Construction began in 1954 and the park was unveiled during a special televised press event on July 17, 1955. Known as Disneyland when it opened on July 18, 1955, and still colloquially known by that name, it is the only theme park to be designed and built under the direct supervision of Walt Disney. In 1998, the theme park was re-branded "Disneyland Park" to distinguish it from the larger Disneyland Resort complex.
