Winchester Unitarian Society

For the second consecutive year, “Dr. Feverdream’s Halloween Experiment” will take over Winchester Unitarian Society (WUS) with multi-sensory installations, animatronics, immersive sets, hundreds of props, and dozens of actors, promising visitors a Haunted House experience like no other. Following on last year’s breakout debut, “Dr. Feverdream’s Halloween Experiment” offers spine-chilling experiences for thrill-seekers as well as friendlier adventures for young children and families.The event takes place on Friday, October 23, and Saturday October 24, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, at 478 Main Street, Winchester.Every October, so the story goes, the normally respectable neuroscientist Dr. Feverdream pauses his regular research to study how fear affects people in and around Winchester. This Halloween, he’s studying the effects of ancient Greek monsters and punishments on the human psyche. (For the younger set, he’s studying daydreaming.) On entering the Haunted House, guests are invited to choose one of three pathways. Fearless folks can take either the Scary Path of Punishments or make their way through the Dark Labyrinth of Monsters, while families and young children can travel a fun-filled pathway on a Rainforest Adventure. All pathways end in the Haunted Hall, where guests can play games and other activities and purchase snacks and treats.&nbsp;Tickets are $15 and may be purchased in advance and at the door with cash, credit card, or e-payments. For tickets, go to <a href="https://www.winchesteruu.org/2026/09/19/haunted-house/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.winchesteruu.org/2026/09/19/haunted-house/</a>. For more information, call 781-729-0949.

SYNOPSIS Accidentally brought back to life in Salem on Halloween night, three witches, known as the Sanderson sisters, attempt to steal the life essence from the town’s children so they can have eternal life. They are outwitted by a boy, Max Dennison, his young sister, Dani, and his girlfriend, Allison, and aided by a boy, Thackery Binx, who had been changed into a cat for trying to interfere with the witches centuries earlier. Released on July 16, 1993 and directed by Kenny Ortega, the film stars Bette Midler (Winifred), Sarah Jessica Parker (Sarah), Kathy Najimy (Mary), Omri Katz (Max), Thora Birch (Dani), Vinessa Shaw (Allison).

Main Street

Join us for one of Woburn’s most beloved fall traditions—the Woburn Host Lions Halloween Parade—and help make a meaningful difference for sight-saving research.
Each year, on the last Sunday in October, Main Street comes alive with families, children, bands, floats, costumes, and community spirit. More than 30,000 people gather to celebrate “Parade Sunday,” reconnect with neighbors, and enjoy a true New England homecoming atmosphere.
Bring your ghosts, goblins, superheroes, princesses, friends, and family to Main Street in Woburn at 1:00 p.m.—rain or shine. Arrive early for the best curbside view as the parade begins near Crowne Plaza/Showcase Cinema, travels south through Woburn Center, continues onto Lake Avenue at the Winchester line, and ends at Horn Pond. The 2.2-mile route typically takes about 90 minutes from start to finish.
Your presence matters—and so does your generosity. The Woburn Host Lions use this parade to raise funds for the Massachusetts Lions Eye Research Fund, supporting vital research that helps protect and restore vision. Please consider making a donation, large or small, when you attend. Every contribution helps advance the Lions’ mission of service and assist to improve the life of those affected by vision loss.
