NA Event Watch: Spirits and Spirits Tour on Wednesday, October 21.
(submitted)
Spirits and Spirits, a ghost walk and eerie tales tour, will be held at 7 p.m. on Oct. 21, as a benefit for Develop New Albany.
The walk begins at Destinations Booksellers, 604 E. Spring St. Tickets are $10 and available online. Proceeds from ticket sales will benefit Develop New Albany, a non-profit organization composed of businesses and community volunteers committed to the economic revitalization and historic preservation of Downtown New Albany.
Thrill seekers, ghost enthusiasts, history geeks and the like will all be interested in this unique event. Walkers on the guided tour will be treated to stories of the city’s past inhabitants who still linger as well as tales of people settling their differences the only way they knew how: In the middle of the street. Stories may not be suitable for young children.
Along the tour, guests are invited to take a break at local establishments offering “distilled” spirits, some of which share space with the spirits of the past. Stops include the Windsor, Studio’s Grille and Pub, River City Winery, Bank Street Brew House and Hugh E. Birs.
The tour will be guided by Gregg Seidl, a New Albany native who also wrote “New Albany,” published in 2006, a collection of vintage images portraying the triumphs and tragedies of the residents of New Albany.
More information is available on the Web.
