Echoes of the Past: Haunted Mill Tour at Lowe Mill Arts

Step into the shadows this Halloween at the 1901 textile mill for the Haunted History of the Mill Tour. Whispers follow the brave, shifting silhouettes creep along the rafters, and each tour uncovers something new, some nights offer only distant echoes, other nights something, or someone, lingers just out of sight. Pumpkin scarecrows stand sentinel across the yard, their carved grins guttering in the wind as if they know the mill’s secrets. Enter if you dare; the old mill keeps its own counsel, and once you cross the threshold, the night may not let you leave the same.

Buffet Bliss or Southern Swing-and-a-Miss? A Bite at Kacey’s in Huntsville

  Walk through the doors of Kacey’s Country Cooking in Huntsville and you’re greeted by the comforting smell of fried chicken, collard greens, and cornbread that could double as perfume for any true Southerner. This is where the buffet line reigns supreme, the sweet tea flows endlessly, and dessert is always just an arm’s reach away. For many locals, Kacey’s is a comfort food paradise. Fans brag about the fried green tomatoes, juicy pork chops, slow-cooked beef tips, and banana pudding that deserves its own holiday.
