• Spooky Day Trips in Connecticut: Witchy History for Halloween (mommypoppins.com) — Wethersfield families can dive into real witch-trial history this Halloween with a visit to the Webb-Deane-Stephens Museum, the Buttolph-Williams House setting of "The Witch of Blackbird Pond," and the centuries-old Wethersfield Village Cemetery. The guide then sends you on to Hartford, Windsor, East Granby, and Fairfield County for ghost tours, historic burying grounds, and spooky prison and witchcraft sites perfect for fall day trips.
• How did a TikTok love note lead police to a robbery suspect (attackofthefanboy.com) — Wethersfield police say a TikTok "love note," phone records, and DNA evidence helped them identify a suspect in a 2025 armed robbery at the Motel 6 on Silas Deane Highway that injured a clerk and netted over $10,000. Francisco Perez of Enfield faces multiple serious charges in New Britain court, while Wethersfield detectives continue searching for a second suspect still at large.
• Who will win 2026 CIAC field hockey titles? Our midseason predictions (ctpost.com) — Wethersfield High School is set to host the CIAC field hockey state championships on Saturday, November 21, bringing top teams from across Connecticut into town. A midseason look at Class L, M, and S predicts familiar powerhouses like Darien, Wilton, Branford, and North Branford to contend, while several challengers hope to crash the title games on Wethersfield's turf.
