ROGER WILLIAMS ZOO LANTERN SPECTACULAR FREE

It’s clear: These are not the pumpkins carved by your 7-year-old that sit on your front steps. It’s so beautifully well done,” said Cynthia Auckly of Weymouth, visiting the Jack-O’-Lantern Spectacular for the first time. Visitors also spend time in the Wild West with Billy the Kid and in the Renaissance era with DaVinci’s “Mona Lisa.” In addition to seeing traditional Halloween characters and scenes, visitors meet and hear the dinosaurs of the Jurassic era and pass through an African jungle lined with intricately carved lions and tigers. When people come out they tell me how unique and cool the experience was.” “It’s astonishing to see everything lit up like that. It’s artistic and it tells a story,” said Janet Mariani, director of marketing for the zoo. “There are a lot of pumpkin shows, but this is so original. Hanging from trees, arranged on the ground, the pumpkins dazzle against the background of theatrical lighting and a sound system pumps out period music such as Gene Autry singing “Back in the Saddle Again” and the Andrews Sisters belting out “Boogie-Woogie Bugle Boy.” Along a paved path through the woods, you follow a timeline featuring legendary rock stars, classic movies, television sitcoms and historical figures from the 1920s through today.
