Speaker 2: So.

31
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 4: Time certainly does fly, but it is an annual tradition

32
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,639
Speaker 4: here in Los Angeles that keeps growing and we're happy

33
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 4: to have another year.

34
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it just explained to everybody.

35
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 3: I gave a little bit of a primer about not

36
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 3: getting into the details, but about that it's local. It's

37
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 3: up in the hills of Malibu slash Calabasas in that area.

38
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 2: It's off a Malholland correct, that's correct.

39
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 4: We're re located out in Calabasas a Kinggule at Rants,

40
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 4: which is if you've never been there, it's a really

41
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 4: gorgeous property up in the Santa Monica Mountains that has

42
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 4: these amazing trails that you can kind of wander and

43
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 4: walk through that we incorporate into our show, as well

44
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 4: as some amazing buildings and iconic buildings that are already

45
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 4: on that property that we also incorporate into the show

46
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 4: and really bring to life and exciting ways, whether that

47
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 4: through pumpkin displays, which is, you know, kind of our

48
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 4: bread and butter of the show, as well as we've

49
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 4: incorporated some really exciting light in video technology into these

50
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 4: buildings as well that bring them to life through projection mapping,

51
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 4: where you might see a building, you know, look normal

52
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 4: one second, and then it transforms into a different building,

53
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 4: maybe it crumbles to the ground, and it really takes

54
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 4: these existing structures and brings them to life in a

55
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 4: really immersive and cool way as part of the experience

56
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 4: that that's been a new offering that we've done this year.

57
00:02:58,880 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 4: That's pretty exciting.

58
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 3: And it's been a couple of years since I went.

59
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, my young boy is eight

60
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 3: years old. He's about to turn nine, and I think

61
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 3: we started. The first one we went to was when

62
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 3: he was like two, so I know there's been a

63
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 3: lot of changes.

64
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 2: Over those years.

65
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 3: And I'm looking at the website again, Night of the

66
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 3: Jack dot com Night of the Jet dot Com. But

67
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 3: you do you sell Jacqueline or pumpkins on site as well.

68
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 4: We don't sell pumpkins on site, but you will leave

69
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 4: with plenty of the photos of pumpkins through the experience

70
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 4: while you're there.

71
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 3: Okay, so for those that haven't been described some of

72
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 3: the areas and some of the intense carvings, they'll be seen.

73
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 4: Definitely. So as guess entered the property, they're instantly greeted

74
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 4: with our pumpkin carver who is doing live pumpkin carvings

75
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 4: every night, and they are three D carvings that really

76
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 4: bring the pumpkins to life in maybe a different way

77
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 4: that you hadn't seen before, and the detail as you

78
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 4: get up close and watch him do his work is

79
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 4: truly astounding. Through that, and then once you make your

80
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 4: way into the event, there's a rotating selection of LA's

81
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 4: top food truck. I mean, we joke it's kind of

82
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,599
Speaker 4: half food and wine festival at times because the food

83
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 4: and drink component to the event is just so robust

84
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 4: every night. That makes it exciting for guests to experience

85
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 4: not once twice, but maybe three times as they just

86
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 4: kind of work their way through those food and drink offerings.

87
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 4: And speaking of those drink offerings, as you get past

88
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 4: that food area, we have this amazing immersive spoot easy

89
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,719

Speaker 4: of age to enjoy those holiday spirits. And you know,

94
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 4: a big piece of what this event is is those

00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 4: family moments and creating those family moments, and whether that's

96
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 4: through the exciting scenes that they'll experience on the trail.

97
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 4: The trail itself is a mile long with thirty plus

98
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 4: immersive scenes they'll walk your way through, whether that's being

99
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 4: surrounded by spiders and a spider tunnel, being under the sea,

100

Speaker 3: Tell me a little bit about private events.

160
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, of course, we have an amazing event space that's

161
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 4: just behind our main event area that is private with

162
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 4: private restroom, seating, a private bar, and you can really

163
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 4: throw an amazing birthday party, celebration, really whatever you'd like

164
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 4: to for the season. The space is able to be

165
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 4: trans formed to whatever you would like. So that's really

166
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 4: exciting for folks who want to come and celebrate the

167
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 4: season and have a private space to really enjoy that

168
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 4: moment with your group.

169
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 3: Oh that's awesome. That is awesome. Okay, so walk us

170
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 3: through the event, is it? I know you have this year,

171
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 3: you have something called almost Dark so you can check

172
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 3: out the trails during twilight time or as the sun

173
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 3: goes down. Is that for younger children or things like that,

174
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 3: or for people that might want to eat first or

175
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 3: something like that.

176
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's one hundred percent correct. You know, we really

177
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 4: at this event. Listen to that guest feedback and what

178
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 4: are returning fans are telling us, And one of those

179
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 4: was they have young kids that want to experience the

180
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 4: event and maybe don't want to be out so late

181
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 4: into the wee hours of the evening. So we opened

182
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 4: up a earlier time spot this year at six pm

183
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 4: where fans can come and maybe eat before they go

184
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 4: on the trail, or it gives them time to experience

185
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 4: the trail early and then need afterwards. And it really

186
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 4: creates that flexibility for folks to experience the event in

187
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 4: a way that makes sense for them.

188
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 3: So if you're on social media, you can follow them

189
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:14,719
Speaker 3: at Nights of the Jack on Instagram and Facebook and

Speaker 2: Anything else I'm leaving out, Tyler.

196
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,000

Speaker 4: come multiple times throughout the season to really come and

201

Speaker 3: detail and all of the intricacies of the pumpkin carvings

209
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 3: and to see one of the first things is taking

210
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 3: in a tree filled with little pumpkins all over it.

211
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,840
