October is the perfect time to fall in love with Winston-Salem. Whether you like to venture outdoors to pick the perfect pumpkin, prepare for fright night at haunted houses, or sip the season with themed drinks, the Twin City is full of places that scream fall.

We want to unmask the best spots for fun this time of year. Do you know the best neighborhood for trick-or-treating? What about the farm with the best hayrides or juiciest pick-your-own apples? How about a great local thrift store where you can get creative with Halloween costumes?

We’re asking for your help to make this October one to remember. Let us know your recommendations and why they’re the best. We’ll share them with WStoday readers in an upcoming newsletter.
