Highwood's third annual pumpkin festival sought to break three world records, including lighting 32,000 jack-o-lanterns at once.

Whether or not that record was broken remains unknown, but one thing is certain: the festival was big enough to get itself documented on HGTV.
Home & Garden Television will air "Pumpkin Wars" on Halloween at 8 p.m. and again at 11 p.m. The program will focus on Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott as they travel to Highwood and Keene, N.H. to watch these two cities compete for most carved and displayed jack-o-lanterns.
"It’s such a massive, massive thing for what is truly a small community," the show's producer Danny Downing told the Highland Park News. "I think from what I’m seeing, they don’t like to do anything small here."
Check out the show next week. And, if you attended or helped out at this year's Pumpkin Fest, leave a comment and upload a photo.
