Community Calendar

Each service includes an uplifting talk that touches on real-life experiences—like relationships, resilience, and personal growth—offering down-to-earth reflections to help you navigate life with clarity, compassion, and a sense of connection.

The healing portion of the service begins with a peaceful, guided meditation accompanied by live harp music, creating a calm and supportive space. Those who wish may then receive gentle, hands-on energy healing from certified Spiritualist healers while seated.

The service concludes with a demonstration of mediumship from the podium, where the medium shares messages from loved ones in spirit. These brief, heartfelt messages are intended to provide evidence of the continuity of life and offer comfort, healing, and connection.

We’re all a little mad here. Mad the brutal disease which hides within and takes many forms, blanketed under the name ‘cancer’ has taken another from us. This year we haunt in his memory, celebrating his love of Halloween and all he has contributed to Fitzy’s Fright Fest.

We’ve learned the hard way there is something scarier than the words “it’s cancer” - that paired with words like “rare” and “aggressive”. An absolute nightmare of warped reality; an unseen, insane twist to normal. So this year our haunt reflects that energy by taking a trip down the rabbit hole. We will again be collecting donations, with all proceeds going directly to help cover the cost of treatment.

Weaving through two wooded acres, we are a family run, family-friendly haunted attraction. Fitzy’s has been featured on NH Chronicle, listed at the top of WMUR-TV Viewer’s Choice Best Haunted Houses and called “Legendary” by New England Haunts Podcast. The 2025 haunt will be our last.

Located at 37 Maple Avenue in Newton, Fitzy’s Fright Fest is free and open to the public. This year we will operate from 6-9 p.m. on Sat., October 25 and Sun., October 26.

Please keep safety in mind by driving slowly through our neighborhood, and be respectful of our neighbors by only parking on the same side of the road as the haunt. As an outdoor haunt, Fitzy’s Fright Fest is weather dependent - updated information will be posted on our Facebook page (Fitzysfrightfest).

The Northampton Scrabble Club prides itself on being a welcoming group where the priority is on FUN, not strict competition. Come in at any point in the evening and we'll get you in a game! Some players stay for one game, others for multiple games. We have a wide variety of skill levels represented, so come join the fun!
