The Great Jack O'Lantern Blaze — Hudson Valley

Historic Hudson Valley's signature Halloween tentpole — 7,000+ hand-carved, illuminated jack-o'-lanterns across a trail featuring New York State landmarks, video-game icons, a Wizard of Oz hillside scene, fire performers, and a sound-and-light Headless Horseman finale. 2025 dates ran September 12 – November 16 over 52 nights; 2026 expected to follow same pattern. Metro-North Hudson Line to Croton-Harmon (~50 min from Grand Central). Advance tickets required; no on-site sales.
