Haunted Nights of Lights at Lake Lanier
Hundreds of pumpkins, witches, ghosts on display
BYANGELA GARY
HUNDREDS OF ghosts
dancing over a bridge with a
pumpkin patch located near
by. A bright orange “Happy
Halloween” alongside a large
clock, along with two jack-o-
lanterns.
These are among the
Halloween decorations fea
tured at Lake Lanier Islands,
which has expanded its
popular lights attraction to
the Halloween holiday. The
Haunted Nights of Lights is
a three-mile drive through
the biggest Halloween light
display in the South.
As twinkling light repli
cas of Dracula, Frankenstein.
Ghosts and Goblins give an
eerie glow to the night, they
light the way to a stop-over
at the new Haunted Village.
Designed to delight, rather
than cause fright — the fami
ly-friendly theme park show
cases a fun house, carnival
amusement rides, pumpkin
patch, pony rides, conces
sions, and enormous fire pits
for roasting marshmallows.
The haunted maze at the vil
lage will rank high on the
scare factor for small guests,
and is the only venue rec
ommended for big kids and
adults only.
“We are extremely excit
ed about this newest addi
tion to our fall lineup,” said
Grier Todd, chief operating
officer for the resort. “We
have been known for years
as a family-centric destina
tion during the late spring
and summer months with our
Chattahoochee Rapids Beach
& WaterPark and during the
holidays with our famous
Magical Nights of Lights.
This year, we wanted to cre
ate something really unique
for families to do together up
at the lake during the fall.”
The Haunted Nights of
Lights runs nightly from
7-11 p.m. through Oct.
31. Admission is $20/car
Mondays through Thursdays;
$25/car Fridays through
Sunday; $40/van (up to
15-passenger capacity).
There are additional charges
for Haunted Village activi
ties.
