Nights of the Jack is a family-friendly, Halloween-themed show situated on a mile-long nature trail filled with thousands of hand-carved jack-o'-lanterns and endless photographable moments.

Through the magic of light projection mapping, ordinary buildings are transformed into hauntingly fantastic wonders. This year a reimagined illuminated field debuts, promising a thrilling and chilling display.

Also new, the "Almost Dark" trail allows guests to explore the experience as day becomes night, just as the sun is setting, as the lights are first coming on.

Nights of the Jack is all ages. The experience is not scary but can be a little spooky in spots In addition to jack-o’-lanterns from every mystical sphere, the experience includes expansive lantern art activations in the pre-show zone, digital carnival games, an immersive jewelry making experience, a live pumpkin carver and lots of photo-worthy moments.entry
