WILLIAMSBURG MAGAZINE / OCTOBER 2016
The month of October brings to mind many things – apple cider and autumn, Halloween and hayrides, to name a few. Speaking of Halloween, Williamsburg has a spooky side. Ghosts from the past allegedly haunt several historical sites, including Ludwell Paradise and the Peyton Randolph House. This month, the Williamsburg Magazine speaks to some local ghost tour guides – read about some of the best legends. Then, if you’re up for it, take one of the tours and see for yourself. For some a more quintessential October activity, check out Pumpkinville in Toano. The pick-your-own pumpkin patch also offers hayrides and a corn maze. Fall is a time of festivals, and the first weekend in October is always reserved for Williamsburg’s longtime arts festival, An Occasion for the Arts. The festival hosts nearly 145 artists from across the country who will set up throughout downtown Williamsburg, as well as around 30 performers at two stages. But this year, An Occasion for the Arts has expanded to include a music mini-festival to kick the weekend off, and a culinary celebration to close the weekend out. That same weekend, you can also check out the Williamsburg Book Festival, featuring New York Times best-selling author Rita Mae Brown, as well as Jamestown Settlement’s American Indian Intertribal Powwow, a two-day celebration of song, dance and storytelling by members of American Indian tribes. With activities new and old, this October is sure to be unforgettable.
