Ghost Town Haunted Attraction: Oct 26-31

Video produced by Tristan DiVincenzo

Prepare yourself for a frightful journey through condemned buildings, pirate ruins and scary grave-sites as you encounter terrifying creatures of the living dead. Keep your wits about you as you wind your way through areas of death, decay and doom trying to find your ultimate escape. The creatures of Ghost Town are dying for you to cross over and join them in a gruesome and grim afterlife. Please click here to purchase tickets.

On October 31, 1736, what once was a prosperous town, a place of hustle and bustle, buzzing with hope and excitement, Provincetown was turned into a frightful town of the dead. Masked by a dense bank of fog, pirate Captain Davy Flint and his crew of rapscallions aboard The Red Dawn, rolled in that very evening and pillaged and plundered everything in sight like a pack of wild beasts. Surprised by the onslaught, the peaceful townsfolk of Provincetown were defenseless against the Captain and his crew, and were slaughtered for their precious possessions. 

The town was set ablaze and was left in ruins and remains, to this day, an uninhabited place unsuitable for the living. Burned buildings, forced into decay from years of weathering and neglect, stand crookedly looming over empty streets, the air around them heavy and lifeless with the impressions of death. Today, locals from the surrounding towns believe that the ghosts of Provincetown's dead inhabitants are still looking for revenge. 

They say that October 31st and the days surrounding it bring a strange and eerie fog, and that blood-curdling screams can be heard piercing the air as angry spirits roam empty streets. They say the dead have come back to claim their town and that they have come to seek revenge. And so, as you make your visit to the ghost town of Provincetown, just beware of the perils that may lie in wait.

Women's Week in Provincetown: Oct 8 - 14

Dancing with Mimi Gonzalez, WomensWeekProvincetown.com

Women’s Week in Provincetown means many things to many women. Whether it’s getting to see the best performers and comics in lesbian culture today, or just getting to walk down Commercial Street holding hands with that special someone, basking in the autumn sunlight and taking in the natural beauty of Provincetown, there is no festival on the planet that celebrates women like Women’s Week.

Starting on Columbus day each year in October, Women’s Week begins with events to welcome you and ease you into a Provincetown state of mind. The Welcome Party Monday night begins with a celebratory mood that extends through the following Sunday, with our famous Saturday Night Dance party a fitting crescendo to a fabulous week!

In between, there are so many events to choose from, you’ll have a hard time deciding. To help you out, there are copies of the Official Women’s Week Program distributed all over town before you arrive. In many colorful and beautiful pages, you’ll find details about what’s going on in the schedule, a listing of over 150 separate events, workshops, performances, gatherings, and parties.

New for this year, we’ll post news flashes on the news page — who will be performing, and when, as we hear about it! We will also add to our day-by-day schedule as the news develops, and the day-by-day listing can be found on our Schedule Page.

We’re thrilled to announce our Woman of the Year 2012, Irene Rabinowitz!
Irene Rabinowitz has been the Executive Director of Helping Our Women since 1995. She is a native of Providence, Rhode Island who lived in New York City for sixteen years before moving to Provincetown in 1986. Prior to working at Helping Our Women, she was a Case Manager and Housing Program Director at the Provincetown AIDS Support Group (now the AIDS Support Group of Cape Cod) from 1989 to 1995.
