10,000 lighted pumpkins bring warm Halloween greetings

Pumpkin Nights returns to Howell Farms in Arlington.

ARLINGTON, Texas — Scared of the dark? Don’t worry. There’s a spot in Arlington that will make anyone light up.

It’s called Pumpkin Nights and it’s back at Howell Farms.

It’s a half-mile trail of Halloween happiness.

“With over 10,000 hand-carved pumpkins that we light up,” said Lindsey Kent, district manager for Pumpkin Nights.

Kent says those 10,000 pumpkins are located within nine immersive worlds: a forbidden city, an enchanted forest, and a pirate’s cove, among others.

Unlike typical Halloween, it’s meant to be artistic and fun, no fear, all cheer.

“It’s exciting,” Kent said. “It’s fun. It’s different.”

Beyond the elaborate pumpkin trail is a festival area with professional pumpkin carvers, fire dancing, food, and more.

There are so many treats, Kent said it’ll satisfy you a lot longer than one, single Halloween.

“You can just have those memories that last a lifetime,” she said.
