Halloween Ghosts and History Tour of Georgetown

Join Ed Moser on Saturday, November 2, 2024 from 3:00 - 5:00 pm at Volta Park Recreation Center (1555 34th Street NW). 

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.

Purchase tickets here.

An ideal locale for a Halloween horror tour of scandal, murder, misbehavior and intrigue--bracketed by some of the nation's finest architecture! And perhaps a pub or restaurant afterwards.
