This Friday, October 4th, the House's courtyard will transform into an outdoor cinema for a special screening of the classic horror film "Night of the Living Dead." The movie starts at dusk (around 7:30 p.m.), but guests are encouraged to arrive early and enjoy craft cocktails at a pop-up bar presented by Art in the Age. Seasonal spirits like Graverobber Unholy Rye and Siege of Wolves spiced rum will be featured. Tickets are $8 and include a spooky, after-hours tour of the House.
Starting this weekend, the House will debut its new "Bloodletting & Burials" tours. This journey into the gruesome medical practices of the 18th century will highlight true tales of bloodletting, smallpox, yellow fever, and more. Participants will meet historical figures, explore Betsy's grave, and take a candlelit tour of the House. Tours run every Saturday in October at 6 & 8 p.m. Tickets are $20.
Whether you're a fan of classic horror films or prefer to delve into the darker side of history, the Betsy Ross House has something to offer this spooky season.
