Nights of the Jack

September 29, 2023 - October 31, 2023 View Website

Thirty miles northwest of Hollywood, tucked in the Santa Monica Mountains, there’s a strange and shadowy wonderland that everyone’s been whispering about. This season, we’re back and brighter than ever with our notorious Halloween event. We’ve summoned Jack o’ lanterns from every mystical sphere and devised a spook-tacular illuminated light show under the autumn sky! It’s not just an illusion, it’s an experience. You don’t want to miss this hair-raising feast for the senses. Brace yourself with a hot cider or seasonal cocktail from our Spookeasy bar and fortify your little ones with some of our festive fall treats. Follow the 3/4 mile trail at King Gillette Ranch, glimmering at every turn with our blazing gourds around every corner. Be sure to have your cameras ready and enjoy!
