Thirteenth Floor Entertainment Group (“13FEG”) is better known for its terrifying haunted attractions. However, the Denver-based producers of world-class live events and location-based entertainment experiences branched into new family-friendly territory last Halloween season with Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns, a family-friendly pumpkin attraction. It was so well-received that they’re bringing it back to the Mile High city for a second season.
It officially opens to the public on Friday, September 30, and is open on select nights through Halloween.
“After seeing how much the people of Denver loved the Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns during our first run last season, we’re thrilled to bring it back for a second year” stated Dan McCullough, Founding Partner of Thirteenth Floor Entertainment Group. “Guests can expect an experience better than they could’ve ever imagined this year, filled with magic, pumpkins and more. You’ll find magic around every corner!”
Let’s check out what guests can expect when they visit.
About Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns
A luminescent glow of over 7,000 magnificent, hand-carved pumpkins and larger-than-life pumpkin displays will delight adults and children. In addition to a nautical sea-scape and a pirate ship, there will be dinosaurs, dragons, and much more.
Also, in collaboration with STAR Institute for Sensory Processing, Magic of the Jack-o-Lanterns will host a Sensory Friendly Night on October 2nd to ensure these pumpkin delights are accessible and magical for all. Special consideration will be taken into account for anyone with sensory and sensory-motor differences and challenges. Organizations such as the Epilepsy Foundation of Colorado & Wyoming will be on-site as well.
To that end, no alcohol will be served or allowed on the premises during Sensory Friendly Night to create a safe space for all attendees.
“STAR is thrilled to partner with 13th Floor in bringing a supportive and accessible Halloween event to our sensory and neurodivergent communities.” Commented Tory Plucheck, Development and Partnership Coordinator at STAR Institute.

Have you ever visited a big jack o’lantern display like Magic of the Jack O’Lanterns?
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
