Edgar Allan Poe Night
About this Event
🕯️ Edgar Allan Poe Night at The Point 🐦⬛
Once upon a midnight dreary…
This September, step into the shadows and spend an evening inspired by Baltimore’s master of the macabre, Edgar Allan Poe.
On Friday, September 25th, The Point transforms for a haunting night of spirits, storytelling, tarot, cocktails, and a little friendly competition. Whether you’re a lifelong Poe reader, fascinated by Baltimore’s haunted history, or simply looking for an excuse to embrace spooky season early, you’re invited to join us for a night where the line between history and the supernatural gets a little blurry.
Come for the cocktails. Stay for the stories. And whatever you do… don’t listen too closely for a heartbeat beneath the floorboards. 🖤
🕯️ THE DETAILS
📅 Friday, September 25th
🚪 Doors Open at 5 PM
👻 Main Event Begins at 7 PM
📍 The Point
Arrive early, grab a drink, settle in, and prepare for the evening ahead.
👻 SPIRITS & HAUNTING STORIES
Baltimore has no shortage of ghost stories—and neither does Edgar Allan Poe.
As darkness falls, we'll dive into an evening of live ghost storytelling, exploring eerie tales, local legends, Poe lore, and stories of things that may still be lingering long after they should have disappeared.
Dim lights, strong drinks, strange stories. You get the idea.
🔮 TAROT CARD READINGS
What does the future have in store for you?
Throughout the evening, visit our tarot card reader for a glimpse beyond the veil. Ask about love, your future, the path ahead—or perhaps something a little darker.
Just remember: you asked the cards.
🍸 POE-INSPIRED COCKTAILS
It wouldn't be a night dedicated to Poe without a few spirits.
Our bar will be serving an exclusive menu of cocktails created specifically for the evening and inspired by Poe's stories, characters, and beautifully dark imagination—including The Black Cat.
Expect drinks worthy of midnight toasts, mysterious encounters, and questionable decisions.
✒️ SHORT STORY CONTEST
Think you could make Poe proud?
Put your darkest ideas on paper and enter our Short Story Contest.
We’re inviting guests to embrace the macabre and show us their best spooky storytelling skills. Ghosts, M**der, madness, mysterious strangers, things that go bump in the night—the darker, the better.
More details on contest rules and submissions will be shared with attendees.
🐦⬛ COME FOR THE POE. STAY FOR THE PARANORMAL.
Dress for the occasion if you dare—gothic, Victorian, dark academia, witchy, literary, and spooky-season attire are highly encouraged, but never required.
Grab your fellow lovers of literature, ghosts, cocktails, tarot, and all things strange and unusual for an evening unlike your typical night out.
Baltimore and Edgar Allan Poe have been intertwined for nearly two centuries.
On September 25th, we're bringing his world back to life. In Fells Point, where Poe was last seen alive.
Or at least… we hope that's all we're bringing back. 👻
Space is limited. Reserve your spot and join us for Edgar Allan Poe Night at The Point.
Quoth the Raven… see you there. 🐦⬛🕯️
