Weekend Worthy: Find your next spooky read at Grapevine Horror Book Fest
I’ve always enjoyed a good horror book. The collection I’ve built since I was a teenager includes classics like Stephen King’s “Misery,” while still making space for more modern suspenseful books like Silvia Moreno-Garcia’s “Mexican Gothic.” To this day, I’m always on the lookout for scary reads.

Grapevine Opens New Museum Filled With Historic Wagons, Tractors And Trucks
W hat do a horse-drawn wagon from 1870 , a century-old steam tractor and a vintage grape-crushing truck have in common? They're all part of a new museum bringing Grapevine's history to life. The Sharron Studebaker Rogers Heritage Equipment Museum is opening in Grapevine's Historic Cotton Belt Depot District, showcasing the vehicles and equipment that helped shape the city's agricultural, transportation and community heritage. The 1,300-square-foot museum will permanently display five historic vehicles and pieces of equipment, with additional artifacts rotating throughout the year. From Horse-Drawn Wagons To Vintage Trucks Among the museum's highlights is an 1870 Studebaker wagon, a horse-drawn vehicle associated with westward settlement and early American transportation. Grapevine City Councilwoman Sharron Rogers purchased the wagon, funded its historic exterior restoration and donated it to the collection. Visitors will also find a 1913 J. E. Case steam traction engine, offering a glimpse into the machinery that powered agricultural work more than a century ago. Other pieces include a 1932 International grain truck and a 1929 Chevrolet grape-crusher truck nicknamed "Miss Grapevine," reflecting the area's agricultural and grape-growing heritage. The collection also features a 1957 Chevrolet 210 Sedan, a replica of Grapevine's first police car, connecting visitors to another
