For years, Davis Dunavin has hosted a special Halloween episode of Off the Path, but this year, he hands the reins to WSHU intern Riley Buyskes. She visits two stops on Connecticut's brand-new Haunted History Trail — an ice cream shop named after an accused witch and a restaurant with a reputation for ghostly activity.

Davis Dunavin loves telling stories, whether on the radio or around the campfire. He started in Missouri and ended up in Connecticut, which, he'd like to point out, is the same geographic trajectory taken by Mark Twain.
