The Great Jack O'Lantern Blaze: Long Island

Museum

๐Ÿ‘ Itโ€™s worth going here at least once. Buy your tickets in advance because they sell out quick. The walk is about 45 minutes. Each section has a story theme to do with town history with sound. Thereโ€™s a stand that sells Apple donuts and cider etc. it was very enchanting. People often mention walk, experience, tickets, pumpkins,

    Once in a life-time experience. It was my first time ever going to one of these, my boyfriend surprised me! The show was so beautiful! Itโ€™s so amazing how talented these artists are. I went at 9pm, it was kind of crowded but not bad. I loved the spooky music they were playing, but I did feel like it could have been a bit darker in some spots. They had some bright lights and projectors but thatโ€™s my only complaint! The walk was kind of short if you donโ€™t stop and read the signs and look at every pumpkin in detail. We arrived at 8:50pm and left around 9:35pm. The shop was unfortunately closed when we left so I couldnโ€™t get a hot chocolate but it was a nice night overall! ๐Ÿงก๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ–ค

    My favorite pumpkin display. Great scenes! Some are very eerie, some are simply beautiful. I love that they incorporate the historical buildings into the displays and love that they put pumpkins in the trees. It's very ethereal and kudos to the art directors!

    This Pumpkin exhibit is located in Old Bethpage Village Restoration in Bethpage which is an amazing place filled with many of Long Islands historic old homes that have been relocated to this site, some dating back to the 1700s. I strongly recommend you go back to see the rest of Village Restoration during the day which I rate 5 stars. The Pumpkin trail was well decorated with a spooky type theme, but still perfect for kids of all ages. The walk started off with a nice array of hand carved jack o lanterns. As we continued, there were many different sections each with a unique theme. However real pumpkins were definitely in the minority. In spite of that everything was well done with interesting and relevant local themes. All along the way there were colorful and dazzling lighting. I made some inquiries and learned that even though most of the structures were not made from real pumpkins, they were all hand crafted on site by very skilled and talented artists. The walk also included a few historical homes including some from the Hewlett and Schenck families as well as an old Barn, all in theme. There were informative, illuminated signs along the way. A nice time for the whole family, in and out in under an hour. There was a snack/beverage spot that included hot chocolate and apple cinnamon doughnuts, although we didnโ€™t stop there. There was also a small souvenir tent. Parking was free and plenty of port o potties for rest rooms. Pricing is $48 adult and $40 for ages 3-17. No senior discount.

    Truly amazing pumpkin artistry!! I have been wanting to go for years and finally went. Yes, the tickets are a bit pricey, but you are supporting a great cause for their educational programs. It was absolutely worth the experience! I was in awe every step of the way. They are truly talented and very organized. I loved the carousel, the clock and the lighthouse!

    Didn't know what to expect coming here, but I was blown away. So many pumpkins! So much cool work! It was a fun fall activity. The walk was short and easy along an established path. The only issues were others guests stopping in the middle of the path to take pictures instead moving to the side, and that sometimes there were too many crowded in front of an attraction. But aside from that, it was great!

    We had so much fun! I've never done anything like this before so I was extremely excited to go...and for good reason! It was a really great experience to walk around (took us about 35 minutes) and get lost in the beauty of it all. I can't wait to do it again next year and I've recommended it to a bunch of people!

    Pumpkins were pretty cool. 45min-hour path of pumpkins. Wish there were food trucks around. No food just pumpkins. Make sure you eat before you go. Buy tickets online for a certain day and time.

    Overall nice experience. I will only go the one time as I feel it's expensive to see the same displays more than once, but I am definitely glad I saw it. Very impressive artistry. I liked the tickets for food and drink, fun merchandise. Overall good experience.

    very entertaining and organized well. Food truck was out of hot cider, not sure how that could happen and prices were very high, I would avoid it. Nice walk and some really cool scenes.

    It was a really lovely experience! Incredibly well executed, it was hard to pin point what I enjoyed the most! So much detail! The staff were very nice too

    Definitely worth a visit. Itโ€™s not crowded and takes around an hour to walk through the whole show. Be warned there arenโ€™t any proper bathrooms, just portapotties.

    The Blaze of Long Island is a fun-filled night for people of all ages looking to get into the spirit of halloween. Located only a few miles away from the famous Amityville Horror House, the setting fits perfectly for a spooky adventure. Local ghostly history of the near by location rich in dark history is explained on plaques throughout the walk. The whimsical light display, eerie background sounds, and talented pumpkin carvings put on quite the show. The walk takes about 30-40 mins in total and can be a great family outing or even a unique date night for couples. The Blaze will most certainly be our halloween custom to visit every year!

    Nice pumpkin display, timed tickets so wasn't crowded. But there are no bathrooms inside the gates. Only porta potties in the parking lot.
