Food Tours: You've never heard ghost stories in such a delicious way. For $29/ticket, allow your costumed tour guide to lead you on our Haunted Food Tours on October 31st, November 1st, and November 2nd.

Along with our standard tastings, you'll receive an additional autumnal drink tasting, learn ghost stories from Manayunk, Roxborough, and the Wissahickon, and you'll also have the chance to win some Halloween freebies provided by the Manayunk Development Corporation.  Hear quotes from the locals' experiences with our haunted area, receive a map of the creepiest spots, and find out which of our very own tasting locations has had some super spooky sightings in their 90-year-old location.
