Take a step into the shadows for our annual Edgar Allan Poe Night at The Dogeared Page! A beloved Danville tradition, this event promises an evening of literary mystery, moody ambiance, and darkly delightful fun. Join us on Saturday, January 17th from 6:00–8:00 PM as we transform the shop into a lair worthy of Poe himself, complete with candlelit vibes and gothic flair. 🕯️🥀🐦‍⬛
Enjoy heavy appetizers and beverages, all thoughtfully themed to match the night’s macabre spirit. Browse exclusive Poe-inspired merchandise, including books and bookish accessories to rep the original goth himself. Guests are encouraged, but NOT required, to wear their finest Victorian mourning garb to fully embrace the aesthetic.
The evening’s activities include Poe-themed trivia and blackout poetry, and a dramatic reading of Poe’s chilling short story: The Tell-Tale Heart.
Come experience a night devoted to the master of macabre, just in time for his 217th birthday!
Please note: This is a ticketed event. Tickets are $20 per person and are available for purchase in person at the shop or over the phone. Space is limited, so call us at 434-857-5389 or email [email protected] to reserve your spot today!
We can’t wait to welcome you for a night that is sure to be dreary, eerie, and unforgettable. 🖤
