Of course if you're feeling particularly adventurous, you may take a road trip to Bernville, Pennsylvania, which was named the single best Christmas light display in Pennsylvania last year by the Daily Meal. Here's what the report had to say about the display:

"Charming is truly the only word to describe Koziar's Christmas Village in Bernville, Pennsylvania. For 70 years, Koziar's has been putting up a Christmas display both indoors and outdoors, complete with over 1 million lights, a miniature train, homes that are decorated better than the finest gingerbread houses, and a meet-and-greet with Santa Claus."

Many of the best Christmas light displays share familiar themes. You'll see many illuminated snowmen, more than a couple Rudolph's with shiny red noses and quite a few candy canes. But some take a unique spin on the holiday. In Caldwell, Idaho, event organizers create a "Winter Wonderland." Brilliant blue, green and red lights cover trees and immerse festivalgoers in the spirit of the season. Look closely and you'll even see Santa fishing in a stream.

You'll also see some inspiring houses. The "West Chester Griswolds" have a light display have a holiday-themed display up already with more than 100,000 lights. The display, which is completely controlled by computers, features a massive Christmas tree, dozens of icicles and numerous holiday characters.

Or take last year's "Lights on Suter" display over in North Haledon, New Jersey. Each year the Tomasi family creates a light display. Last year, it was set to the tune of Llama by the band Phish. The family has also created a display based on the film "Star Wars: The Force Awakens."
