A good scare! I’m talking about the delightfully scary, even bone-chilling Halloween event that Jason Roy, Sean Clark, Kyle McGrath, and their outstanding team created this year. I heard that there was a near-faint involved, so expertly was the haunted house on Lawrence Street put together. But there was something for all ages, as there was a milder version for the little ones to enjoy.

Thank you to all who attended, and a special thank you to Proctor Academy for significantly adding to the ranks of nervous and excited visitors.

Of course, the biggest thank you of all goes to Jason, Sean, Kyle, and their team for doing this for the community. We hope we will see them using their outstanding energy and talent again next year!

The good I want to emphasize is Jason, Sean, and Kyle’s decision to give a generous portion of the proceeds to the Andover Food Pantry. Hurrah for them! Makes us all proud.
