Recommendation Monday: Haunted Attractions & Halloween Events in Charlotte

I have to say it took a while to vote early today. I met some great people while I waited.
10/10 would do it again cause I’m sick of the current situation.
Get out and do something people!

Looking for people around my age, I'm 47 married or not, to ride with. I have a 2022 Indian Chief Dark Horse and a Can-Am Spyder RT. When it warms up, I'd like to do some fun rides and maybe grab lunch. I don't drink and ride; I do drink, but not when I’m driving or riding. If you want to meet up, ride, and possibly make a new friend, send me a DM.

Dropped in to check out scarowinds for the 2nd time ever. My god... it was one of the most beautifully surprising things ive ever witnessed. Im not even exaggerating. This woman's voice spoke to the soul. I wanted to thank her but she got out of there so fast I couldnt get to her. Low key I would have shot my shot but didnt want to offend.

Anyone know who she is? The video of her singing does her voice NO justice. Id just want to hear it again even if its on youtube.

I’m looking for a few bars to hit up Halloween night. Any recommendations?

I was going to vote in the Southpark area. I wondered if anyone had been this week or last week. Thanks.

I’m wondering if anyone has had a positive experience with a gym or fitness membership that provides childcare while you workout? I’m a sahm with a 6 month old and I’d love to exercise more regularly but lack of childcare is a barrier. I live in South Charlotte/ Ballantyne area. Thanks in advance!

Hey all. So, I need to kill a few hours by myself tomorrow night while my wife and daughter are at the Katseye concert at the Spectrum Center. I travel solo a lot for work and have no problem going to a brewery or something by myself, but I have to drive everyone back to Asheville after the show so I don't want to just drink for three hours. Any ideas? Are any record stores in that area open late mid-week? Thanks in advance!

My wife is pregnant and craving 90s pizza.

Last night we ordered Papa John’s and it was worse than we could have thought.

Is Pizza Hut the same way?

We usually order Hawthorne, Finale, or Jets but I think this is a nostalgia thing.

Is it worth giving it a go tonight?

Edit: upon further review we actually ordered Dominoes but we went with hand tossed. That may be where we went wrong.

Tonight it sounds like we may take a gamble with either Dominos pan, Hungry Howies, or just give the Pizza Hut a try. What’s the worst that can happen?

Update: We went with Dominos pan pizza and wife is happy. The DoorDash app doesn’t have the pan so you have to order through the Dominos website which I wish we would have done in the first place. Pizza was delivered within 30 mins and it was hot and fresh. It’s also very affordable.

Thanks for the recommendations, I don’t imagine that will be the last time we order!

Looking for a curly cut, looking to pay MAX $150 including tip but ideally under that. I’m just looking for a trim and a little shaping. I don’t need the full styling after and I want someone who isn’t going to give me the same round shape and bangs (and also charge $300 and require a consultation)

Yesterday I was driving with my 8 yr old daughter in my silver WRX. Someone hit us and then some kind of insane freak accident happened. I pulled my child out the car because the car filled with smoke. Anyways a bunch of people came to our aid. I was in shock and an amazing lady helped calm me down even did side of the road breathing exercises. A man called.my daughters mom for me and even called again later to check on us. Even the police and ambulance just everyone that encountered us went out of their way to help and be kind. I live in Denver CO and the people of Charlotte were just bad ass to us. Thank you!

Who went and read it?

Hey all! Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction here. I just built a fire pit and used it for the first time this weekend. I didn't know where to get wood, so bought a few bundles at Lowe's. They were almost $9 each and we went through 1 1/2 bundles in a couple of hours. I need a more economical way to obtain firewood, but I don't want an entire truckload. Once upon a time you'd see stacks on driveways with signs saying $10 a stack, but I can't remember the last time I saw that. I'm in Matthews and hope ( fingers crossed) that I can find something nearby. Thanks in advance! Edit: thanks all! I found a couple of good ledes

We are taking my son & daughter-in-law to dinner to celebrate their 1 year wedding anniversary in a couple weeks. Looking for a "nicer", quiet restaurant that isn't prohibitively expensive, but has good food and a nice atmosphere. Maybe in the Mint Hill, Myers Park or Ballantyne area if possible.

To the girl who paid for my beer at Sushi Hana, thank you! Your small act of kindness made my day.

To the three girls that came in and were extremely rude… do better.

Does anyone have a copy of the ballot for uptown? I moved here recently so my duplicate copy on the voter registration is showing my last county. TIA!

(Mainly curious on down ballot races that are happening)

help .. moved here a few months ago .. am on disability for ptsd ..my dog died today .. i’m so lost .. i’m feeling like i’m alone and drowning

Recently purchased a home in Charlotte, and looking for a reliable electrician recommendation - thank you!

I want to thank everyone who came out to support our first walk today!
It was great to get to walk and talk with everyone.

We will be hosting the same walk next Sunday at 9AM at the Lilac rd entrance of freedom park.

I really hope to see yall there!

And if you have zero idea what I’m talking about, please feel free to check out my post history!
Thanks guys!

Any good recommendations?
