Looking for some extra fun this Halloween season? The Winchester Unitarian Society is thrilled to be hosting a Haunted House for all ages this year on Friday, October 31st and November 1st from 6:00-9:00pm.
The church's old stone and brick building will be transformed into Dr. Feverdream's Sleep Experiment, an immersive experience featuring two unique paths. Younger guests -- and anyone who prefers a milder adventure -- are invited to explore the whimsical Dream Space, visiting an alien planet, while patients (suggested for ages 12 and up) are invited to brave the thrilling Nightmare Lair.

Our home-made apple pies will fill the freezer. Our crafters have been knitting, crocheting, and sewing handmade treasures all year and this is your chance to scoop them up! Our bakers and soup makers are getting ready to fill our baked goods table and snack bar, so you’ll have plenty of tasty options if you get hungry while shopping. Our White Elephant and Book Sale tables will soon be groaning with treasures. Plus the jewelry table, Christmas Room, and cookie bar! We hope you’ll join us in kicking off the holiday season at this beloved community event.
