But first, today's weather:

Mostly sunny and pleasant. High: 83 Low: 53.

Here are the top five stories today in Dallas-Hiram:

1. Looking for some family-friendly Halloween fun? The City of Hiram Police Department invites the community to its Trunk or Treat event at Gray's Mill Park on Friday, Oct. 21, from 5:45-7:45 p.m. In addition to cars full of candy, guests can enjoy food trucks as well as a showing of Hocus Pocus.

2. If you still can't get enough of the spooky season, the New Georgia Public Library is offering a Halloween-themed crochet class on Friday, Oct. 14. Participants are asked to bring two skeins of yarn (one in soft white and one in black), as well as a US H or 8 crochet hook, to create their own Halloween ghosts. Registration is required for this event. (New Georgia Public Library via Facebook)
3. Hiram High School received several donations for the HHS Care Cabinet, a food cabinet to benefit students in need. The goods were donated by Rooted in Christ with support from KSU Upward Bound. Those who wish to donate can purchase from the school's Amazon wishlist. (Hiram High School via Facebook)
4. Enjoy a night out on the town with a live performance at the Dallas Theater! Clue On Stage opens today (Friday, Oct. 7) and will run for the next two weekends.

5. Calling all prospective pet owners: five adorable cats have just gone up for adoption, and they're all just a short drive away in Marietta. Wilma, Baby Yoda, Gilda, and Roscoe just became available this week, while Darcy can be taken home on Oct. 9. Visit the link for information on these and other local pets awaiting their forever homes. (Dallas-Hiram Patch)

Patch deal of the day:

Wine lover alert. We found this amazing deal from Splash Wines — an 18-bottle curated selection of reds and whites for fall — for just $69.99. Shipping isn't cheap at $39.95, but that still comes out to just over $6 per bottle. Splash Wines has a money-back guarantee if you don't like the wine and 4.6 out of 5 rating on TrustPilot. So: recommended.
