Results: 

Mostly As) Coffee lover, you should stop by Starbucks or Dunkin’ for a pumpkin spice latte– of course– or another fall-flavored drink. Warm or iced, these drinks are delicious treats that are only around for a limited time. 

Mostly Bs) You’re scared of nothing! Stop by a local haunted house (Bates Motel, Eastern State Penitentiary, and Pennhurst Asylum are personal favorites) to push your courage to the limit.

Mostly Cs) I bet fall is your favorite season, isn’t it? For all the wholesome autumn vibes, go pumpkin picking with friends or family. Linvilla, Highland, and Maple Acres are just a few local farms I would 11/10 recommend. 

Mostly Ds) You appreciate a rainy day and a warm cup of tea, and fall is the perfect time for both. Head to Ludington Library and curl up with a good book (maybe a murder mystery?) to enjoy the cozy fall weather. 

Mostly E) Surprise, surprise– you love nature no matter the season. To appreciate the beautiful fall foliage and the crisp autumn air, why not go for a run or a relaxing stroll on the Haverford College nature trail?
