A lot can be said about Halloween. As I have seen on Facebook and heard on the radio today. All of which I will not repeat, as I do have to have some sort of limitation. At least for now.  Anyways, I constantly hear that there is nothing to do, and am always asked ( don’t touch this one, Bartlett) where should I go? So, I have been diligently researching what to do and where to go. Websitets,emails, smoke signals, you name it. Been there done that. Longest 15 minutes of my life. Well almost there was the time, wait, not appropriate. So, anyways, get ready,cuz here it comes. Halloween Happenings!!!

Let’s start with our four legged friends. It never seems to amaze me the costumes that we people come up with for our non human best friends. For the record, once tried to dress Iggy Pup the pit bull in a tutu. He did not take well to that, and I can show you the scar to prove it. I guess pink wasn’t the best color… Seriously, right now, animal adoption agencies are pushed to the limit and need your help. So what better way to support Animal Haven than to attend The Halloween Dog Costume Parade at The Barking Lot, 940 Sherman Ave, Hamden. Our own Pam Landry (that is so freakin cool to be able to say that) will be the judging. For those who have not had a chance to meet Pam from her radio days, don’t miss the chance. Absolutely one of the best, and I am damn proud to have her on our website.Desiree Fontaine from WTNH will hosting the “Witches and Whiskers“ fundraiser on Halloween night.

Next, let’s get the rugrats taken care of. After all, this is the second best holiday for them.  So, in Guilford is the 4th Annual Halloween Happenings Costume Parade, and Trick or Treating on the Green. Additionally, they will have a magician/illusionist performing on the Green at 3PM. Check the link for details. In Old Lyme, they have an early start with Halloween Fun! starting at 10AM. Please call to preregister at 860-434-1864

Now for all of us “older” kids, we got stuff from Bridgeport to Bristol, and New Haven to New London. Literally. So, here we go, and if you want more info, just click on the event, and you will be taken to the appropriate spot.

Friday Night is way cool. Stephan Hartman is at Whitfield’s, and Shoreline Connection is at the Aqua. Hygienic Art Park has there annual

And here is the havoc for Halloween. In Bridgeport, the totally hot restaurant and live music venue Two Boots has King For A Day, Bristol’s  Downtown Cafe has the totally funked out FBI, Toad’s Place has it’s mega Kooks and Spooks convention, Cherry Street in Wallingford hav the BeeHive Queen, Miss Cristine Ohlman and Rebel Montez putiing on the hip shakin Voodoo Ball. Closer to home, at least for me is The Downshift Band at Augur’s Irish Pub, where the Hit squad and I will stop in, and then we will be finishing the night at The Country Tavern with Bad Assets cranking out the tunes. So no matter where you are, get out and get social. And as always, be good (at least somewhat) and be safe.
