Halloween night feels like a pretty good time to find out just how haunted Otley really is.

On Saturday (October 31), Yorkshire Ghost Tours are running two special Halloween outings around the town at 6.30pm and 8pm, led by Otley’s resident ghost guide Spindleshanks McScrew.

Expect local history, old legends and tales of some of Otley’s more unsettling residents as you make your way through the town’s streets after dark.

For more details of this and other events, see the pinned post at the top of our page.

A proper night of traditional Irish music comes to Bloomfield Square this Friday (October 30).

Drogheda-born singer and musician Dónal Maguire has spent decades performing and collecting traditional Irish song, as well as playing mandolin and tenor banjo.

He’s particularly known for his unaccompanied singing and a repertoire deeply rooted in the Irish tradition.

For more details of this and other events, see the pinned post at the top of our page.

Do ghosts exist?

On Friday (October 30), psychologist and paranormal investigator Dr Graham Ramsden comes to Otley Common with Proof of Ghosts — an evening exploring the evidence for and against the paranormal.

He’ll share photographs and audio gathered during years of investigations, talk through some of the possible explanations and leave you to make up your own mind.

Believer, sceptic or somewhere firmly in the middle, the timing just before Halloween feels rather appropriate.

Celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, Beech Hill Garage in Candleworks Yard at the bottom of Station Road is Otley’s longest-established garage, having passed through two locations, two families and multiple generations along the way.

Currently owned by Dawid Keczkowski and his family, the fact that the garage still has customers who have been coming since 1976 is testament to both the personal service on offer and the quality of its work.

For all these reasons and more, Beech Hill Garage is this week’s Business of the Week on our sister site Buy in Otley.

See the pinned Business of the Week post at the top of our page for more pictures and backstory.

Got a fave business you would like to see in this slot? Send us a DM. (Business owners can self-nominate.)

Business of the Week is funded by Otley Business Improvement District (Otley BID).

An increasing number of businesses in town that are not levy payers are now joining the BID as voluntary members. It’s ideal for businesses such as homeworkers and those without conventional business premises.

If your business is not a levy payer and you would like to join the BID please see their website.

Buy in Otley is owned and maintained by Otley Town Council

Fancy a browse round some genuinely local makers this weekend?

This Sunday (October 25), Otley Courthouse hosts its monthly Craft Fair, with a mix of handmade gifts, crafts and creations from independent makers.

It’s one of those events where you can go in “just for a look” and come out carrying something you absolutely did not plan to buy.

For more details of this and other events, see the pinned post at the top of our page.

Ford Es**rt Mexicos, Opel Mantas, Porsche 911s and plenty more besides will be rolling into Otley this weekend.

The Ilkley Jubilee Historic Rally and Run gets underway on Saturday (October 24), with around 90 cars gathering in Market Place before being flagged away by Deputy Mayor Cllr Jo Allen.

The two-day event then heads out across North and West Yorkshire before returning to Otley on Sunday (October 25), with the cars finishing at Otley Golf Club after descending from Clifton and crossing the river back into town.

There will be cheese. There will be ghosts. There will, inevitably, be some wheel-y bad cheese puns.

This Thursday (October 22), Mikron Theatre brings Wensleydale Whey to Otley Courthouse — a new musical comedy set in the Yorkshire Dales.

The story follows a group of monks searching for someone who can revive their long-lost traditional Wensleydale recipe, taking in the history of cheese along the way.

Expect live music, a slightly bonkers plot and rather more fromage-related wordplay than is probably healthy.
