Haunted HousesIf 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

completely trans-formed into a haunted build-ing. The show c u l m i n a t e s this weekend.Organizer Rik

Sassa said his com-pany Fear This tries to provide something for all ages, with both scary and funny versions 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. 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 personnel with identi-fication and $25 for families.

The show is handicap acces-sible and refreshments will be served. For more information, visit www.fearthis.org or call the Courthouse at 518-854-7053.

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 several 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 will be open weekend nights Oct. 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.” Guided tours will take palce from 6 to 9 p.m.

For this year’s Haunted Barn, the Little Theater has been cho-sen by Medusa Fright Works to test market its latest product, the Bloody Jiggler. The set piece, which allows people to appear as if they have only a head and torso, will be on dis-play in the haunted barn. “The Jiggler will give our guests a new experience they have never seen before,” said Jeremy Hammond, co-producer of the event.

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.

War of the WorldsSCHUYLERVILLE Just in

time for Halloween, the Schuylerville Community Theater will present a staged reading of a new adaptation of “The War of the Worlds.”

Written by award-winning writer

Darren Johnson and set in the village of Schuylerville,

the play, based on the 1898 H.G.

We l l s novel, will be present-ed at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 27, and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 28 in the Schuyler Room at the Town of Saratoga building on the corner of Routes 4 and 29 in Schuylerville.

The reading will be presented by new radio station WSCT, and features well-known local per-sonality Joe Peck, village librar-ian Julie Martin, and Ralph Dimeglio as the announcer.

Originally written by Johnson in 2002 and set in Riverhead, Long Island, the playwright has updated the play to take place in Schuylerville, where a strange meteorite crashes near the Home Depot mall. Tension and humor increases as the charac-ters realize that it wasn’t a meteorite, but actually a space-ship.

WSCT Station Manager Lorraine Thompson will warm up the radio station audience to ready them for the broadcast. Everyone is welcome to come and sit in the audience and be part of the show.

Tickets for the production are $7 per person or $5 for students and seniors. Proceeds will ben-efit the SCT Production Fund. To reserve, call 518-695-5480.

“Working with my customers and my awesome crew of installers” is Jessi Ryan’s favorite part of her position as manager of Greenwich Floor Covering. Jessi is now in her 11th year in the floor-ing industry.

As manager of the business, she is responsible for estimating and bidding jobs, sales, scheduling and ordering. “I basically do everything and love every minute of it,” she says. “I especially like helping my customers choose and design the floor of their dreams.”

A native of Schuylerville, Jessi graduated from Schuylerville High School and attended Hudson Valley Community College. She currently lives in Greenwich with her boyfriend (who is also named Jesse), where they enjoy fishing, camping and watching sports.

IN BUSINESS

Laura F. Johnstone, DDS

Dentist at Greenwich Family DentistryDr. Laura Johnstone began working with

Greenwich Family Dentistry this year, and says pro-viding oral health care to the community has been very rewarding. She notes that the favorite part of her job is helping her patients achieve healthy, func-tional and beautiful smiles.

After growing up in Brooklyn, N.Y., Dr. Johnstone went to SUNY Stony Brook School of Dental Medicine in Long Island to earn her degree in dentistry. She completed her residency training at New York Hospital Queens in Flushing, N.Y.

Dr. Johnstone currently lives in Saratoga with her husband.

Amy Walker-BaileyOwner, Walker’s Farm Home & Tack

As someone who grew up in the family business, Amy Walker-Bailey quips that she has been work-ing at Walker’s Farm Home & Tack “all my life.”

“As a business owner I do everything from buy-ing, selling, sweeping and cleaning and everything in between,” she says. Her favorite part of the job, however, is her interaction with her customers.

A graduate of Fort Ann Central School, Amy received her B.S. from Siena College. In addition to running the Walker’s Home Farm & Tack stores in Fort Ann, N.Y., and St. Albans, Vt., she has been married for 16 years and has three beautiful children.

As sole proprietor of the Bunker Hill Inn in Salem, Laura Coldwell says she does “whatever is required to keep the guests comfortable and happy.” She wears many hats, including maid, lawn mower, gardener, communications director, entertainment advisor, chef and laundress.

Her favorite part of her job is seeing the guests who return again and again.

“They become friends more than customers,” she says. “I love the fact that they find Washington County a wonderful place to visit.”

Laura grew up in the house that is now the Inn. After leaving for several years to work in California’s Silicon Valley, she’s happy to be back home surrounded by family and pets. She’s proud to say that the Bunker Hill Inn is now in its 20th year.

Laura ColdwellOwner and innkeeper at the Bunker Hill Inn

Megan L. Mayo, DDS

General dentist at Greenwich Family DentistryAs a dentist, Megan Mayo says that the best part

of her job is helping her patients create and main-tain beautiful smiles. She also focuses on working with them to help overcome any dental fear and anxiety they may have.

In her role of dentist with Greenwich Family Dentistry, she diagno-ses, treats, and helps patients prevent problems of the mouth, all in a fun, family-friendly environment.

Dr. Mayo received her B.S. in biology from St. Michael’s College. In 2005, she earned her DDS degree from the NYU College of Dentistry.

Pamela started Deluge Design as a home-based business back in 2002, making stained glass pieces and doing stained glass repairs and restorations. She soon started receiving calls from people want-ing to take classes or purchase supplies.

In the fall of 2004, she decided it was time to walk away from her career and move the stained glass business from her home to a store-front. Pamela opened the Stained Glass & Gift Shop at 27 West Main St. in Cambridge, where she has continued to add beautiful vases, hand-made jewelry, lawn ornaments, hand-quilted items and other locally made goods to her store.

She says that the best part of owning a business in Cambridge is “I love our community, I love my customers, and I love what I do.”
