Things are starting to look a little spooky around the city. From the annual Krewe of BOO to creepy decorations and haunted house happenings, New Orleans embraces spooky season with plenty of frightful fun for all.
Around here fall is indeed the perfect time for scaring up good fun. Hurricane season is winding down, the weather is turning, football and festival seasons are in full swing. It’s a great time to get together with friends for a casual dinner party, before the big press of the stressful holiday season next month. Our cover feature is a study in the lost art of the dinner party, with plenty of hosting tips, décor ideas, lighting design and more. Plan your next get-together and share with us your own ideas on making a night of it with friends.
Speaking of haunts, our featured essay asks the question, “What do you do when you’re married to a horror aficionado?” We learn what it’s like to embrace all of the ghoulish fun, without getting too much of a fright.
Plus we have your go-to guide for the best fall festing across the city, the state and on down the road that will keep music lovers, foodies, families and more, busy from now through the end of the year.
