An Evening with Poe and Other Masters of Horror

October 23–24 | 6–9:30 PM

Join us for a night of terrifying tales at The Pines! The old masters of horror literature will be dusted off for a thrilling evening in a historically haunting setting. The event will begin with a reading of Edgar Allan Poe, recited on the porch of the 127-year-old home. Guests will then be ushered inside to hear tales and excerpts from other classic horror authors. Each stop on the tour will include a bite of deliciously spooky food.

Guests should arrive at the Dow Gardens Welcome Center at the time printed on their ticket. Golf carts depart promptly for The Pines Home at 6, 6:30, 7, and 7:30 PM. Each experience lasts approximately two hours, including the return ride to the Welcome Center.
This program is intended for ages 16 and older. The experience includes stairs inside a dimly lit historic home. The Pines Home is not wheelchair accessible.

$40 per person | Admission included

Capacity is limited, and reservations are required. Register by October 16.
