Happy Halloween, and welcome to all of the Swifties. Enjoy Caesar Meadow’s cover illustration of Taylor Swift performing to our local monsters and ghouls. This issue features the continuation of our Fall Festival listings, which includes festivals for everything from balloons to beignets.
If your definition of autumn is pumpkin patches and hayrides, then Brooke Adams’ look at spots around the state is a must-read.
Swifties will want to visit haunted locales in the French Quarter as told by Matt Hanson. And if staying home for Halloween to watch movies is your idea of a good time, then don’t miss Matt’s look at horror films that were shot locally.
Still trying to find that perfect Halloween costume? Frances Deese shares wonderfully unique New Orleans-inspired ideas such as dressing as a pothole or a muffaletta.
Stay safe, and don’t drink and drive.
