On Saturday night, we signed on with the nefarious local historian Gregg Seidl for his Drinking With the Dead Haunted History Tour. It was three and a half hours of great stories and Open Air fun, as accompanied by adult beverages at five downtown establishments. Gregg also offers Dining With the Dead Haunted History Tour, with the emphasis on a meal at Habana Blues. The two tours alternate on Saturdays through September 24, and complete details about each can be gleaned by following the highlighted links to Facebook.
