Things to do in New Jersey during Fall.

jacksontwentyone.com

October has officially begun. It’s time to start thinking about all of the activities you want to do before Winter comes around. I have compiled a list of all the best autumn inspired things to do in New Jersey so you don’t miss out on any of the fun.

1. Fright Fest (Jackson)

Six Flags is an amusement park that we all know and love, but the creeps come out in October. Enjoy the regular rides during the day, and get ready to be scared for your life at night. Are you daring enough to make it through the seven terrifying attractions? Don’t forget to stop by the bloody fountain for the perfect Instagram picture.

2. Battleview Orchards (Freehold)

Battleview Orchards is your one stop shop for apples and pumpkins this season. Don’t forget to call or check out their website to see when your favorite apple is ripe! Also, make sure you stop at their Country Store to get some delicious goodies and apple cider donuts. (Get there early, the line is usually long!)

3. Brighton Asylum (Passaic)

This newer haunted house is located in the heart of Passaic County. Their haunted attractions showcase some of the highest special effects that theatrical horror has to offer. Be warned, this house is not for the weary. It is actually really scary, but you will have fun. Check their Instagram for contact nights, which are even more intense.

4. Asbury Park Zombie Walk (Asbury Park)

This event lets you live out your goriest nightmares. Get in your best zombie gear to join thousands of other zombies and walk down the Asbury Park boardwalk and other public locations as bystanders watch in fear.

5. Heaven Hill Farm (Vernon Township)

To go pumpkin picking and to check out the Great Pumpkin Festival, check out Heaven Hills Farm. This exciting Halloween attraction is perfect for kids!

6. Ramsey Farmers Market (Ramsey) Ploch’s Farm (Clifton, NJ)

Just because summer is over, that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your fresh produce and novelty items.

7. Bane Haunted House (Livingston)

See on Instagram

Bane Haunted House is the largest indoor halloween attraction in New Jersey. It is guest interactive, so be prepared to be terrified. There are no animatronics, so all the scares come from up to 70 live actors each night!

8. Soul Kitchen Community Restaurant (Red Bank/ Toms River)

Enjoy a farm to table meal at Jon Bon Jovi's Soul Kitchen. Dine on locally sourced seasonal ingredients. Times are tough, so if you are unable to give a donation to pay for your meal you can serve as a volunteer to earn a dining certificate. Good food, great company. Pay it forward.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
