Great time at the Great Jack O Lantern Blaze in Long Island in October 2024. We arrived shortly before our 6pm ticketed time. There were lots of staff directing people where to park which was very convenient. After parking we entered the main area where they sold a few lit wands and staves for about $12 if desired. Tickets were scanned there and we proceeded to the main attraction entrance. We were given the option to wait a bit before starting our walkthrough as it wasn't as dark yet (6:05pm). There is a small food vendor there selling some snacks as well as beer. As you make your way through the attraction, there were lots of interesting and creative exhibits, all tied to Long Island's history. I appreciate that they took the time to make that connection as opposed to simply making random exhibits for display. Not only did we get to see some amazing designs...but learned a few facts along the way. There were some smaller exhibits but also some larger ones like the spider-web and pumpkin tunnel, both great for photos. Halfway through the walk, there was a shop which some souvenirs...typical things you'd expect from a souvenir shop. Overall the walkthrough was bigger than I expected. we really enjoyed it...though not sure if we'd return, as they would likely re-use the same exhibits every year. (Apologies if I am wrong) This would be good to look into before returning in the following years. All staff, from the parking directors, to shop vendors and others scattered around the walkthrough, were extremely nice and helpful. Big kudos to them! I highly recommend this attraction, especially if you haven't gone before. There are a few discounted nights ... be sure to check their website. Also, though the path is dirt...it is stroller friendly. We didn't have an issue navigating ours through the terrain.
