Frights in the Lights Drive Thru in Mesa is Arizona’s family friendly Halloween drive-thru event. Pack the kids in the car and and drive though this spooky 1 mile drive-thru of sequenced lights to halloween themed music. You will see ghost and goblins, witches, spiders, pumpkins and more.
The kids had fun sticking heads out windows and moonroofs. They definitely take up more room in the front seat now! It’s hard to capture all the beauty of the display but think about the Christmas show and swap some trees for pumpkins. Definitely fun for kids, but a little underwhelming for adults.
Our tickets were for the first showing of the night at 6:45. We arrived at 6:40 and waited in line in the car until about 7:10. My husband drove pretty fast and it took maybe 10 minutes. If your kids are inpatient in the car maybe plan an activity or snack for the wait.
It’s price per car load, so definitely worth bringing the kids friends along.
One thing I loved was when they scanned our tickets, they mentioned the bear (fortunately the kids didn’t hear so surprise not ruined) and the grabbed them from inside a building. Meaning no merchandise table. No flashy selling items right there for kids to see. You also can’t see if anyone else has any. The stuffed Jack-O-Lantern Bear is cute, soft, cozy, you can turn lights on and iff easily however the stuffing inside looks easily destroyed. Reminds me of a dog or other animal tearing it our. Another option would be grab a pack of glow sticks or Halloween Light Up necklace from home.
Note that you enter off Alma School, it’s dark but there are signs. Follow the parking attendants to the right. The left is the Haunted House.
