Good evening from your team at Salem Reporter.

September still has one day left, but we’re seeing houses around Salem get into the spooky season spirit already.

Is there a house in your neighborhood that’s especially into the Halloween spirit? Perhaps your own decorations you’d like to show off? Send a picture to Managing Editor Rachel Alexander at [email protected] and let us know where it is. If we get enough favorites, we may run a guide later in the month.

Here’s a bit of today’s news. Catch all Salem Reporter’s stories anytime on our website.
