The beloved event returns this year after its absence in 2021. Replaced by Disney After Hours Boo Bash, fans missed the original soirée.

Starting August 12 and continuing until October 31, the separately ticketed event provides frightfully fun entertainment in honor of the spooky season. For now, Guests can get a little taste of the coming attractions with creepy carved pumpkins perched above buildings along Main Street, U.S.A.

A TikTok video posted by @walruscarp gives us a closer look at some of the pumpkin’s designs. The first one he shares has a spider carving, followed by one with a witch on a broom.

Along with more intricate pumpkin carvings are regular pumpkins carved with simple designs. Next to a few of the simpler versions lies an interesting and creative white pumpkin.

This one is comprised of two pumpkins stacked on top of one another. Made to look like a snowman, the ghoulish creation dons a creepy-looking clown face.

After that, we see what the TikTok creator labels as the best one of them all, a pumpkin carved with a Jack Skellington Key! Comprised of a Jack Skellington head and key body, the gourd pays homage to the fan-favorite film, The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993).

Several other TikTok creators, such as @theDisNuts, and @DVC_Park_Hoppers, posted videos of their pumpkin sightings as well. Various creepy creations were showcased, including another snowman, this time with three pumpkin levels.

Festive autumn wreaths complete with classic fall colors of orange, yellow and red were also spotted around Walt Disney World Resort. With Starbucks rumored to release their fall menu at the end of this month, we can’t wait to grab a drink and partake in all the Halloween festivities at Disney Parks this year!
