SPICY: On Friday, Seniors lined up for the Grace Harwell Senior Center’s costume contest, part of the annual Halloween party held at the Bobby Andrews Rec Center in Washington. Victoria Tyer, dressed as a salt shaker, with salt’s other half, Bette Hamilton, dressed as pepper, took second place in the contest.
Plenty of partygoers proved Friday that Halloween isn’t just for the young trick-or-treaters of the area. In the morning, members of the Grace Harwell Senior Center in Washington gathered at the Bobby Andrews Rec Center to celebrate Halloween with food, drawings, music and a costume contest. That evening, arts supporters entered the Turnage Theatre at their own risk for Terror at the Turnage II — The Hitchcock Hour, a fundraiser for Arts of the Pamlico. The theatre was made all the more spooky by props mimicking scenes from Alfred Hitchcock movies, as well as “Psycho” playing on the big screen.
