Did you know beer and witches have history together? It's true!
In Maryland, 12 people were accused of felony witchcraft. Some died. Learn their stories and delve into the liminal of the Free State, starting in the 1600s and coming into the present day.
Feel free to wear your witchy hat or spooky cloak. Brooms can be carried on Main Street and parked at each location.
The tour begins at The Wine Bin, 8390 Main Street. If you would like a wine sample or to take advantage of a 10% discount on purchases that night only then arrive no later than 6:30pm. Stops may include Syriana's, Bibliopub, and/or Phoenix Upper Main. Be sure to check your confirmation email for precise details.
