Welcome to a very special double-feature for Walsh Wednesday’s 40th episode! Since this episode is releasing on October 1st, it seemed fitting that we highlight two of biggest aspects of the month - Halloween Season and Breast Cancer Awareness.

On this week’s episode of Walsh Wednesday, we start by visiting one of the Hudson Valley’s spookiest locations - Kevin McCurdy’s Haunted Mansion! Kevin McCurdy and Holly Dillon give us a tour as they get ready for their 49th season! Special thanks to Trevor Souza for assisting me that day!

For nearly 50 years in the Hudson Valley, this haunted attraction continues to be filled with immersive and spine-tingling elements, and mesmerizing special effects, guaranteed to make you jump, scream, and share the spine-tingling fun with friends and family.

After we travel through the darkness that is Halloween season, let’s brighten things up and Light the Village Pink! We speak with Dr. Lisa Curcio with Northern Dutchess Hospital about Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and the fun initiatives happening in Dutchess County to help raise money and awareness, such as Light the Village Pink and PinkFest ’25. Thank you to Robyn Scarchilli for organizing this interview.
