This time of year, there’s nothing quite like boarding a broom and zipping from photo op to photo op. You’ll find Insta-worthy options bubbling over throughout Gardner Village any time of year, but there’s something about WitchFest pics that are extra enchanting!
To see what this flight of fancy is all about, Ms. Spells is here to share a few of her favorite green scenes to stop with your witches.
STOP 1: THE WITCHING BRIDGE
Perhaps the most popular, the Witching Bridge, has quickly become a WitchFest fav.
PIC TIP: This iconic site makes a fantastica frame when flying solo, or your full boo crew can line the covered interior for a gruesome group shot!
STOP 2: WATER TOWER POWER
Nothing says “Halloween” quite like a pose beneath the legendary Gardner Village Water tower. What makes it so special, you ask? How about the fact that the grandest witch hat of all sits atop, acting as a beacon as it guides those brooms in.
PIC TIP: Try sitting on the ground and looking up at your wart-nosed subjects for a cool perspective. The looming tower overhead will feel extra ominous from this angle.
PIC TIP: Don’t forget a Witches Night Out shot at this spot. The lit-up sign will make any photo shine!
SIT FOR A SPELL
Just outside of Pine Needles, you’ll find the perfect place to pause and rest those feet. After all, pointy shoes aren’t always the most comfortable of footwear. This bench comes with a stench . . . the stench of witch. It’s your best place to cozy up for a photo that will make any album green with envy.
MOONLIT MADNESS
Just as you pull your broom into The Village, you’ll find the light of the large moon, waiting for you. Gather ‘round and prepare for a glow-up!
THIS PUMPKIN IS GREAT
If your witch crowd is sizeable, this is the spot to stop. You’ll find the oversized pumpkin outside of Happy Camper Deli & Bakery. Get your best punk’n grins ready!
PIC TIP: This spot is ideal for wee witches, as you can pose them along the ground and have the full backdrop staging your shot.
THE HOUSE THAT PUNKS BUILT
An entire house made of . . . PUMPKINS? It’s true! Our witches are nothing short of resourceful. See their handy work across from the water tower in the center court.
PUMPKIN PLAY
Don’t forget a patch pic with Jack. Take time to visit the largest jack-o-lantern in town, located just outside of Spoiled Rotten Children’s Boutique.
PIC TIP: Spoiled Rotten is painted purple, which is the complementary color of orange. No wonder photos with this pairing are destined to dazzle!
Whacky witches and grinning ghosts, get ready to turn your Instagram feed into a mystical, magical experience any Halloween lover will appreciate. Gardner Village is THE place to smile and say “fleas!”
