The horror-themed attraction features a state-of-the-art haunted guaranteed to scare even the bravest of visitors… possibly to death! For more information, visit http://timesscarenyc.com/.
For those who prefer a less scary attraction in the Big Apple, check out

Loudoun Valley Vineyards in Waterford recently stayed open late for our sales team, who sampled nine wines and Dustin’s “lazy man’s sangria” – a mix of the Classic White (Loudoun Valley’s most popular) and the Chambourcin.
The team then headed to Magnolias on the Mill in Purcellville, where they enjoyed the calamari, Brie/crab/spinach fondue and fried green tomatoes for appetizers. They then had their own entrees, including Scallops with Sweet Potato Mousse, Filet, New York Strip, Crab Salad, and Salmon with Wasabi Mashed Potatoes. They also had a sampling of beverages including St. Germain sparkling cocktails, Pumpkin Ale on tap from their large craft beer selection, and Malbec.
