This Oakland Pumpkin Patch Hides a Haunted House (Lights On vs. Lights Off)
Piedmont Avenue Pumpkin Patch & Haunted House, Oakland: the haunted house walked twice, lights on and lights off.
SF Bay Weekend Videos
Firsthand Bay Area adventures — the places I actually go. It's out there. Let's go find it.
Every week SF Bay Weekend tells you what's on across the nine Bay Area counties. These videos are the other half of that: what a place is actually like once you get there.
A listing can tell you a museum is open late on a Friday. It can't tell you that the parking is on the far side of the building, or that the best part is the thing nobody photographs. So I go, I film what I find, and I keep it short.
Everything here is somewhere I've been. No stock footage, no press kits, no places I've only read about. If I say the view is worth the climb, I made the climb. New videos go up as I shoot them — the Thursday newsletter is where I round up the rest.
