On an unseasonably warm Saturday night, families and friends met at the Barnard Town Hall for the third biennial Haunted Village Theater. Guides led visitors to five outdoor locations in the picturesque town to see Halloween-themed scenes written by local writers and a musical performance.
The spooky evening was created and produced by BarnArts, a community theater group that includes cast and crew from the area. Students from a theater class at Randolph Union High School designed the makeup for the creepy performers, which included dancers from a masquerade ball, a ghost and a corpse.
In the latest episode of “Stuck in Vermont,” Seven Days senior multimedia producer Eva Sollberger followed a tour group through the town and met a ghost wearing petticoats, a coffin maker and the Lady of Silver Lake.
