Halloween Ghosts and History Tour of Georgetown, Friday, Oct. 25!
About this Event
Halloween Ghosts and Scary History Tour of Georgetown, D.C.!
Historic, scenic Georgetown is today famous for its Halloween parties and parades. A thriving, antebellum tobacco port, it was a place of bitter contention during the Civil War, and long a site of political scandal and mysterious deaths, and a cockpit of Cold War, World War II & contemporary espionage.
An ideal locale for a Halloween horror tour of scandal, M**der, misbehavior and intrigue--bracketed by some of the nation's finest architecture! And perhaps a pub or restaurant afterwards.
When: Friday, Oct. 25!, 5 pm start. 2 hours.
Where: MEET at the entrance of Volta Park, 1555 34th Street, NW, on 34th St between Q St. and Volta Place road.
