It ’s time again for the Beaufort Historical Association’s annual Fall Fundraising Party in Beaufort.

This year’s gala event will take place at the home of Robin and Katherine Team at 715 Front St. It starts at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 27 and will feature the artwork of Jaquelin Perry.

Catered by Beaufort Grocery Co., the evening will be filled with artwork, food and the relaxed sound of music by Blue Moon Jazz.

This year will be the sec-ond time the Teams’ house has been the site for the fall party.

The house is known as the Paul Jones House, and it was originally built around 1924 with a first-story porch that reflected the building style of the early 20th century.

Mr. Jones was one of the founders of the BHA in 1960.

The house has been signifi-cantly changed since the Teams purchased it in 2001 and added a second floor porch to reflect the Bahamian-influ-enced double porches preva-lent throughout Beaufort, as well as to take advantage of the views of Taylors Creek.

The home has even changed since the last fall party, with the addition of an outdoor kitchen and a guest apart-ment.

As for Ms. Perry, she hails from Colerain, a rural town in the northeastern corner of the state, just west of the Albemarle Sound.

According to Ms. Perry, the area offers no shortage of inspiration, from dilapidated barns to scenic fields of what she calls “the usual suspects,” cotton, corn, peanuts, soy-bean and sage. Her husband grows it all on the couple’s farm.

“My paintings are about life,” Ms. Perry said. “During the summer, I can get outside and paint every day. The win-ter just doesn’t speak to me in the same way, so that’s when I am going to the grocery store to buy fresh flowers, and fruits and vegetables to set up my own still-life scenes. I don’t really like to paint from pho-tographs.”

Ms. Perry said she enjoys living in eastern North Carolina and there are endless possibil-ities for new paintings.

“My goal is to paint daily, and I am striving every day to improve my painting skills and find my own path as an artist,” she said. “I try to paint exclu-sively from life when I can, and truly love the experience of plein air painting.”

According to the BHA, Ms. Perry has been one of the best-selling artists in the Mattie King Davis Art Gallery for more

than nine years.She was also the featured

artist for the 2012 Old Homes Tour Weekend.

Tickets for the fall party are $100 and may be purchased in advance at the Beaufort Historic Site Welcome Center at 130 Turner St. or online at beauforthistoricsite.org.

Sponsorships are also avail-able online or at the historic site to get the added advan-

tage of two parties. Fall party committee mem-

bers will host a party at the historic site Thursday, Oct. 25 to thank the sponsors.

All proceeds from sponsor-ships and ticket sales benefit the preservation, restoration and educational programs of the Beaufort Historic Site.

BY MEGAN LEWISNEWS-TIMES

Around October, many begin the search for that great scare in honor of Halloween. Some visit haunted houses or buy tickets to see the latest horror thriller on the big screen, while others pop in their favorite scary movie or search for something spooky on Netflix, Hulu or their other preferred streaming service. This time of year, options abound.

However, for those who prefer a more long-term scare, there have always been television shows that have tried to breach the horror genre.

It’s a difficult task.“The Haunting of Hill House”

does not necessarily succeed – at least in the pilot episode.

Like the CW’s “Supernatural,” this introductory episode focuses more heavily on the family’s drama than those jump-inducing scares for which horror movies are known. After all, sustaining the level of suspense necessary to create those over the course of an entire series is tricky, though creators usually try a little harder in a pilot.

The series opens with main character Steven Crain, played by Michiel Huisman, reading from his novel about the house as the camera pans over just what you would expect to see: a suitably creepy old manor house set in a foggy, dark forest. As his narrative moves inside to talk of the house’s walls and floors, so does the camera. The house is the first character really introduced as Steven reads, “Silence lay steadily against the wood and stone of Hill House, and whatever walked there, walked alone.”

There’s this idea from the beginning that the house will outlive the family in a more sinister way than houses generally do.

Viewers will have to continue watching to see if this promise is kept.

Then, after meeting the house, the audience is moved into the plot as the camera settles on young Steven, asleep in bed until he hears crying from down the hall: his younger sister Nell.

As the episode continues,

each of the seven members of the family are introduced, both their younger and older selves.

The primary goal of this episode is clear: introduce the family, suggest that something isn’t quite right about the house and leave viewers wanting more.

The actors work well off of solid writing that juggles a dual past and present narrative effortlessly, and audiences should soon understand what the trailers’ promise: There’s something wrong with this family.

“We’re not like any other family. We’re different because of where we grew up,” one of the sisters narrates in the trailers.

The most normal members appear to be Steven and his sister Shirley, played by Elizabeth Reaser.

Adult Shirley is holding down a normal job and seems to resent feeling like she has to be the eldest even though she isn’t. She is supposedly trying to be responsible where her younger brothers and sisters are concerned, though when we first meet her, she’s ignoring a call from her younger sister, Nell.

Nell, played by Victoria Pedretti, has obviously been seriously affected by the house and consistently “bothers” her older siblings.

Nell says she is worried about Luke (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) when she calls. Luke appears to be the stereotypical family screw-up for the duration of this episode, though the flashbacks and trailers seem to suggest there’s something more to that situation.

Nell also calls her father, whose older version is played by Timothy Hutton. Their father at the start seems to be a calm, level-headed man (played by Henry Thomas) who is just starting to suspect something could be off with the house. By the end, he’s manic in his terror of the place.

Meanwhile, adult Steven is a writer of “preternatural” stories and clearly a skeptic.

“A ghost can be a lot of things: a memory, a daydream,

a secret – grief, anger, guilt,” he tells a woman who’s shared her own ghost story with him. “Most times, they’re just what we want to see,” he continues.

Well, the joke is on him. As the episode title promises, by the end, “Steven Sees a Ghost.”

For those versed in horror-movie tropes, the scares will be predictable as will the ending of the episode.

There’s still plenty to reel in fans of the dramatic, however.

The family is fascinating, and their story shows promise as it revolves around Hill house. Not least intriguing is a mysterious red door they cannot open.

With more and more viewers turning to streaming services for entertainment, it makes sense that Netflix is branching into hosting original content. So, the move to acquire something in the horror genre for Halloween is also predictable. Even the logic of choosing a show over a movie is readily apparent, as television shows often turn into considerably more time spent on the site, viewing content.

First though, a pilot has to suck in its audience. For audiences looking for a good scare, “The Haunting of Hill House” might do just enough, but barely. For those, however, open to just watching something new and captivating, this series should fit that bill.

This 10-episode series by noted horror producer Mike Flanagan was released in its entirety on Netflix Oct. 12. It is rated TV-MA, so this is a great one for after the children are sleeping. Each episode runs about an hour with some going a little long or a little short of that time.

The story is based on Shirley Jackson’s 1959 novel from Viking publishers of the same title. The novel has been adapted for movies twice before in 1963 and 1999, both called “The Haunting.” This series adaptation is released under the Paramount and Amblin television studios’ banners.

Farm food:Getting the whole family around the

dinner table every evening can be hard. Feeding your family meals that incorpo-rate high-quality ingredients and are also delicious can be even harder. Sometimes, though, that special ingredient you’re looking for can already be in your pantry.

Consider including bursts of flavor from an ingredient such as California Ripe Olives at your next family meal and take into account the versatility and taste made possible by the hard-working farm families who grow them.

Grown by his family for more than a decade, Rick Benson vividly remembers the day he convinced his father the next crop at Benson Farms should be California Ripe Olives, which are both heat- and salt-tolerant.

That was 12 years ago, and the Benson family has grown olives ever since. Though they are seasoned farmers, the Benson family members are new to olives, and they have brought an innovative way of harvesting to the decades old industry.

While California Ripe Olives remain a primarily hand-harvested crop, the

Bensons’ young grove was planted with the intention of harvesting mechanical-ly. As newer olive groves are planted, mechanical harvesting is slowly being implemented.

“It’s a labor of love,” Mr. Benson said. “We view olives as our crop for the next generation.”

Whether you’re enjoying olives as a snack or using them in a new dish, like this favorite recipe from a California Ripe Olive-growing family, consider the hun-dreds of farming families behind each can of olives.

RUSTIC CHICKEN WITH RIPE OLIVESRecipe courtesy of Vincent Richutti, a third-generation California Ripe Olive grower

The nonprofit N.C. Aquarium Society has selected a new leader, naming Jay Barnes as president and CEO.

Mr. Barnes will assume this role during the Saturday, Nov. 3 meeting of the board of directors.

“We are excited for the future of the Aquarium Society under Jay’s leadership,” Olivia Holding, society board chair-person, said in a release. “Through more than three decades with the Aquariums and Aquarium Society, his dem-onstrated passion and vision make him a natural choice to lead us into the future. Jay’s hands-on experience in both organizations and his love for what the Aquariums represent are a great combination for this leadership role.”

The nonprofit Aquarium Society supports the three N.C. aquariums, including the one in Pine Knoll Shores, and Jennette’s Pier at Nags Head.

The society raises funds through private donations, gift

shop sales and memberships –providing millions annually for the aquariums’ capital proj-ects, educational programs and conservation initiatives.

Founded in 1986 and based in Raleigh, the society is gov-erned by a 45-member state-wide board of directors.

Aquarium Society President Neal Conoley will retire later this year following 40 years of service to the aquariums.

Mr. Conoley began his career in 1978 as education special-ist with the Marine Resources Centers, as the aquariums were known at the time.

He went on to serve as aquarium division director from 1985-89 before found-ing the nonprofit Aquarium Society and launching what has become a role model for a successful partnership between the public and pri-vate sectors.

During his long tenure, a num-ber of milestones were achieved, including major expansions at all three facilities and securing

�� Aquar�um �o��ety sele�ts new pres�dent

BARNES

more than $100 million in sup-port for the aquariums, includ-ing the 2011 reconstruction of Jennette’s Pier.

“It’s hard to summarize all that Neal has done for the North Carolina Aquariums through the years,” Ms. Holding said. “His vision and leadership have helped make them what they are today –among the most popular and recognized public aquariums in the nation.”

Mr. Barnes has also enjoyed a long career with the aquari-ums. After graduating from

N.C. State University’s College of Design, he began as cura-tor in 1980 and later went on to serve as director of the Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores for 20 years.

After retiring from the state in 2009, he joined the Aquarium Society staff, where he has led fundraising efforts and membership programs as director of development.

In that role, he helped grow the aquariums’ membership rosters and launched popular giving programs, like Aquarium Scholars.

N.C. Senior Games Inc. announced that the Carteret County Senior Games has been sanctioned as an official qualify-ing site for State Finals.

The games will offer compe-titions in many sports and art activities, such as golf, bowling, team sports, swimming, bocce, painting, pickle ball, running and track events, photography and poetry.

The games will also offer practice opportunities through-out the year.

tact Darlene Austin at 252-808-3301.

While Hurricane Florence has meant minor changes in the Ghostwalk lineup, the New Bern Historical Society is finding that when a ghost site has had to step out, others step in.

This includes the William B. Blades house on the corner of Johnson and Middle streets.

“What a generous offer from the owners of the Blades House,” New Bern Historical Society Executive Director

Blades House added to Ghostwalk map

The William B. Blades house has been added to the New Bern Historical Society Ghostwalk map. The event is Thursday-Saturday, Oct. 25-27. (Contributed photo)

Mickey Miller said in a recent release from the organization. “How wonderful it is that they want to help make Ghostwalk successful. This is yet another great example of New Bernians working together to make our town so successful.”

Ghostwalk is an annual event presented by the New Bern Historical Society, this year held

Thursday-Saturday, Oct. 25-27. Each Ghostwalk brings histor-

ical characters from New Bern’s past to tell heir stories.

This year’s theme: Graves’ Anatomy, brings tales of medi-cine, mystery and mayhem. Ghostwalk participants could see everyone from well-respect-ed surgeons to snake oil sales-men.

The current lineup of Ghostwalk sites and an online map are available at GhostwalkNewBern.com.

Ghostwalk is a family-friendly event with entertaining stories from history, tempting dinners available at historic churches and this year something new.

At the historic Judge Gaston Law office, each Ghostwalk tick-

et-holder can have their picture taken at the professional Tap Snap photo booth.

They will go home with a free photograph souvenir, as well as a digital image, all as part of their Ghostwalk ticket.

Tickets are available at GhostwalkNewBern.com or by calling 252-638-8558.
