Over 5,000 carved pumpkins are now on display at the Minnesota Zoo at its annual Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular which runs through Nov. 2. The event is part pumpkin patch, part art installation with artistically carved pumpkins lighting the way through a wooded trail at the zoo. This year’s theme of the carvings is “What Goes Bump in the Night,” and features an expanded walking route. Tickets to the event often sell out and must be bought in advance on the Minnesota Zoo website. Story and video by J
