Over 5,000 artistically carved pumpkins are displayed along a half-mile wooded trail at the Minnesota Zoo at its annual Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular, starting Friday and running through Nov. 2.

The event, which is part pumpkin patch, part art installation, is returning for its seventh year. The zoo expects more than 150,000 visitors to attend the spooky stroll.

This year’s theme of the carvings is “What Goes Bump in the Night,” and features an expanded walking route. Tickets to the event sold out in past years and must be bought in advance on the Minnesota Zoo website.
