LI Lights Map · Halloween 2026
Thank you,
Bridgette.
The photographer behind the glow, out in the dark chasing Long Island’s best Halloween displays so everyone else gets to see them.
Our photographerThe person behind the camera
Night after night, Bridgette is out driving from town to town to see Long Island’s displays in person. She visits the houses on the map, tracks down the ones she spots on Facebook and Instagram that haven’t been added yet, and talks with the owners about joining. Then she photographs each display so beautifully that you can almost feel the glow.
Her photos changed how the LI Lights Map looks and feels. Every listing, every post and every story is brighter, richer and more alive because of her eye. People stop scrolling for her pictures, and then they pack the family into the car to go see the real thing.
We are so grateful for every mile, every late night and every house you stopped to visit. Thank you for pouring so much of yourself into this.
Her impact, everywhere you look

Her photos lead off house listings on the map. Huge thank you to both Glen and Bridgette for their help in building the site itself, and together they have given their time to create a resource the whole community can enjoy.
On Facebook
As an administrator of the LI Lights Map page, she brings a wonderful visual element to every post, and people are loving her photos.

Scroll-stopping shots that make people say “where is that?” and send them straight to the map to find out.
