Haunted HollowsWASHINGTON COUNTY As

All Hallows Eve approaches at the end of the month, haunt-ed houses are popping up

everywhere in

Washington County. If you’re up for a seriously spooky time, be sure to check out some of these frightfully fun hauntings.

In Salem the historic Salem Courthouse has been complete-ly transformed into a haunted building. The show started on Friday, Oct. 12, and runs for the next three weekends, culminat-ing the weekend before Halloween.

Organizer Rik Sassa said his company Fear This tries to pro-

vide something for all ages, with both scary and funny ver-sions of the tour available, and they use the whole building and more, with all three floors in use — including the 1906 jail cells — as well as an outdoor maze. There’s also a kids’ color-ing area outside of the haunted house, so very little people can stay occupied while older sib-lings treat themselves to a fright. Sassa also said there are a number of bail-outs along the route, in case it gets too intense for visitors.

While Sassa and Glenn Cruze do a lot of the setup, it takes a troupe of between 15 and 25 cos-tumed characters to populate the courthouse of horrors. Expect to spend between 20 and 30 heart-pounding, palm-sweat-ing minutes going through the tour.

The event is a nonprofit ven-ture, with proceeds going to the courthouse itself.

Shows are Friday and Saturday evenings, Oct. 19, 20, 26 and 27 and the finale on Sunday, Oct. 28; 6 to 9:30 p.m. nightly. Cost is $10 for adults, $5 for children 13 and under, $5 for volunteer fire or rescue person-nel with identification and $25 for families.

The show is handicap acces-sible and refreshments will be served. For more information, visit www.fearthis.org

There’s scary fun to be had in the village of Argyle, where the R. Stiles Haunted House has been frightening people for the past 11 years.

Described as the area’s “most entertaining” haunted house, the R. Stiles House’s ghouls, ghosts and goblins will rise from their “final” resting places

on Friday, Oct. 26 from 7 to 9 p.m., on Saturday, Oct. 27 from 6 to 8 p.m. and on Sunday, Oct. 28 from 6 to 8 p.m.

Every year the Haunted House is new and different, with unexpected chills and scares. This unique community event includes participation from the Argyle Science Honor Society and many other volun-teers from all walks of life.

All ages are welcome, but par-ents should determine what is appropriate for their children.

Admission to the R. Stiles Haunted House is $10 for adults and $5 for children. All pro-ceeds will benefit the future Argyle Community Center. For more information, call Cathi Radner at 638-8803 or email [email protected].

Spooks and screams will abound this month at the fire-house in Middle Granville, where Nick Crouch has once again set up a haunted house. On eight nights through the month of October, Crouch, with the assistance of some of his friends and several firemen will arrange and open the haunted house.

This year, Crouch has added a hayride behind the firehouse. Money raised from attendance will go to the Middle Granville Fire Department.

There is a $4 admission fee. Children six and under get in for free. The attraction opened Oct. 5 and will be open weekend nights Oct. 19, 20, 26 and 27, and

will start at 7 p.m. each night and continue until people stop showing up.

In Fort Edward, the Little Theater on the Farm has been transformed for the Eighth Annual Haunted Barn. This year’s theme is “Haunted Theater.”

Along with dozens of volun-teers, producers Jeremy Hammond and Sarabeth Oddy have created what is described as the “largest and best haunt-ing in the area.” They warn those who dare to enter the barn to “watch out for Macbeth.”

Admission to the Haunted Barn is $7 for adults and $5 for children. The Little Theater on the Farm is located at 27 Plum Road in Fort Edward. For more information, call 518-747-3421 or visit www.littletheater27.org.

u

Community DayCAMBRIDGE The Cambridge

office of Glens Falls National Bank will host a fall-themed Community Appreciation Day to benefit Operation Santa Claus from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 19.

Lake JumpLAKE LAUDERDALE It’s

time to get your team ready for the Third Annual Jump in the Lake event, to be held Sunday,

Oct. 21 at 1 p.m. at the Washington

County Park at L a k e Lauderdale in C a m b r i d g e .

The fundraising event is sponsored

by the group Hugs for Heroes as a way to thank our troops, vet-erans, police, firefighters and EMTs for their service.

Proceeds from the event will be used to benefit financially in-need military families and local responders such as police or firefighters who may need financial assistance. Last year’s Jump in the Lake raised $10,000, said organizer Clara Hunt.

Teams frequently dress up in themed costumes, Hunt noted. Participants can jump in the lake or just put a toe in the water. Either way, you are “jumping” for a good cause. Spectators are welcome to come and watch the fun. Also attend-ing the event again this year is the Patriot Guard of New York, a team of motorcyclists who stand guard at military funer-als.

Following the group lake plunge, food, beverages and fun will follow at the American Legion in Cambridge.

Sponsor sheets are available at area merchants in Cambridge, Salem, and Greenwich. There is still time to get a team together, or just take the plunge as a one-person team to honor our heroes.

For more information, call

Donna Alexander at 518-854-3517 or Clara Hunt at 518-677-5098.
