On the cover
We are in the thick of the season of Halloween events with options for everyone from the scary-movie fans to the little kids looking for less-spooky fare. In this week’s cover story, we offer a rundown of Halloween and fall-themed events for the next few weeks including haunted attractions, Halloween parties for kids, Halloween parties for adults, movie screenings, theatrical productions and, of course, your annual dose of Rocky Horror Picture Show events.
Also on the cover Goffstown holds its annual celebration of fall and giant gourds at the Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off and Regatta (page 20). Michael Witthaus talks with comedian Kathleen Madigan ahead of her show Friday at Hampton Beach’s Casino Ballroom (page 30). Find more music this weekend and beyond in the Music This Week listing, which starts on page 32.
