Jack-o-lanterns are the faces of Halloween, gracing front porches everywhere with their maniacal grins. This year, you won’t want to miss this glowing pumpkin event in Texas where the symbolic gourds are lighting up Dallas in a big way. Pumpkin Nights is a village of more than 3,000 glowing pumpkins guaranteed to make the spookiest day of the year one you’ll never forget. Let’s take a closer look.

Entering its fifth 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, effervescent lights.

A half-mile walking path leads visitors through seven different themed lands on a quest to preserve the spirit of Halloween. 3,000 real, hand-carved pumpkins line the trail, both along the sides and dangling ominously overhead.
