For A Halloween Adventure In Kansas, Take Botanica’s Spooky Jack-O-Lantern Walk

We’re all pretty familiar with the beautiful Botanica Gardens in Wichita, and just how beautiful they can be. Whether it’s spring or Christmastime, Botanica is a colorful place to visit. However, this Halloween, there’s a spooky jack-o-lantern walk we can’t wait to see. Will you be there, or will you be scared?

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/

Though we love their Christmas displays that capture the heart of every visitor, it's Halloween that brings out the best characters.

For their Jack-o-lantern spectacular this year, volunteers are carving over 1,000 pumpkins by hand to light up throughout the garden and set the mood to spooky.

The event also features a "Haunted Woodland Walk", featuring actors and displays that will transform the woodlands area into a family-friendly haunted walk, so be prepared for a scare!

The event itself runs through October 15-18, 2019, from 6 to 9 p.m. each night. Tickets are $11 for non members, and $8 for children and members. It's $1 more at the door, so you should buy your tickets online to save some money.
