Everyone is looking for those fun fall activities to do right now, or at least i know i am anyway. I work all day in my house i am forever itching to get out and do things. A friend of mine invited me to The Great Jack O’Lantern Blaze, which is in Croton-on-Hudson, New York basically very close to Tarrytown and Sleepy hallow New York. I am not a huge Halloween person at all but i am so glad i did not pass on this event. The artwork in the pumpkins are so breathtaking i was so impressed with everything i saw.
It took me close to an hour to get to the location, the drive away not horrible at all and being able to see all of the leaves turning really helped to put me in the mood for fall. An adult ticket price is $48 and if you have a child with you under the age of 12 their ticket price would be $40, which truthfully is not bad once you see everything there is and how much work went into everything.
Each section had its own theme some even had movement which was so impressive to me, trying to figure out how each pumpkin carving was built or how they put multiple pumpkins together to make one piece. My group picked the 6:30 pm time slot which you would assume would not be the greatest with daylight, but by the time you park, check in and start going on the path it will start to get dark and then it becomes the perfect time frame. It becomes dark but not to chilly so its a good combination and you do not become miserable with the cold weather.
