Jack-o-lanterns are the faces of Halloween, gracing front porches everywhere with their maniacal grins. This fall, you won't want to miss these glowing pumpkins in Texas that are lighting up Dallas and Austin in a big way. Pumpkin Nights is a village of more than 7,000 glowing pumpkins guaranteed to make the spookiest day of the year one you'll never forget. Let's take a closer look at some Pumpkin Nights photos.
Back for another frightful year, Pumpkin Nights is a family-friendly attraction whose mission involves celebrating Halloween without all the unnecessary gore. It's arguably more entertaining than any haunted house because of the elaborate setups and multicolored, ethereal lights.
A half-mile walking path leads visitors through several different themed lands on a quest to preserve the spirit of Halloween. Over 7,000 real, hand-carved pumpkins line the trail, both along the sides and dangling ominously overhead.
Forbidden cities, a Day of the Dead tribute, a sunken ship, an enchanted forest, and a neon reef are all worlds you'll explore. They all have unique stories, unfolding more and more with each additional step.
Your little monsters will love digging for buried treasure in Pumpkin Pirate Cove.
All that fright is bound to leave you absolutely dying of hunger, so luckily, there will be treats galore (and maybe a few tricks, too). Seasonal snacks from local food vendors, warm hot cocoa, and adult beverages are just a few of the many options.
Don't forget to snap a family photo on the way out - especially if everyone is sporting their most festive Halloween attire. This is a night you'll want to cherish for all eternity!
Whether you attend Pumpkin lights Dallas or opt for the Austin location, get ready for a memorable experience.
The Pumpkin Nights Dallas address is 4016 West Division Street, Arlington, TX 76012.
If you need a place to stay in Dallas, I definitely recommend the Hotel ZaZa. It's the epitome of opulence!
The Austin address is 10621 Pioneer Farms Dr, Austin, TX 78754.
The Austin Motel is my go-to accommodation when I find myself in the city. It's quirky and has a decidedly retro flair that you'll fall in love with. Be sure to check out the Pumpkin Nights website for details such as dates, times, ticket prices, and a FAQ page. You can also purchase tickets on the website.
