“Hallowe’en Revels: Poetry and Prophecy” spotlights live theater with a historical Halloween twist. Hosted in partnership with Sweet Tea Shakespeare, the Night Tours will take place October 17-19 and 24-25 from 6:00-10:00 pm. Proceeds from ticket sales directly fund this event and other programs at the 1897 Poe House.This is not your traditional Poe House tour! Guests will be transported back in time, witnessing a series of short vignettes while becoming immersed in early 20th century cultural norms, traditions, and poetry through this scripted short play. This is a unique opportunity to experience historical theater in an actual historic home. The tours are open to people of all ages, and give a non-scary glimpse into how Halloween used to be celebrated. For a more detailed look at the Poe House and family history, attend a tour during regular museum hours.
Tickets can be purchased in advance, or through Eventbrite at the door based on availability. Time slot exchanges may be possible based on availability, but to guarantee your reservation arrive for time slot purchased. Ticket holders should arrive at least 15 minutes before show time, late arrivals cannot be admitted once the group enters the 1897 Poe House. Due to tight space inside the house, shows are limited to 15 people per group.
