VtÜÜÉÄÄ MUSEUMS Carroll Mansion Phoenix Shot Tower Press Release The spirits return for another family-friendly “Halloween Hauntings” at the Carroll Mansion! On October 25 th (6:45 - 10:00pm); 26 th (6:45 - 11:00pm); and 27 th (6:00 – 11:00pm) Carroll Museums, Inc. will present its second annual Halloween event at the Baltimore home of Charles Carroll of Carrollton, last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence. Proceeds will assist with the restoration and revitalization of this historic Baltimore landmark. Over the course of its 200 year history, the Mansion has served as a home for the Carroll family, a tavern, a tenement, a sweat shop, a school, and a recreational center. This year’s Halloween Hauntings will delve into the Mansion’s Saloon history of the 1880s. Visitors will sleuth their way through the house to solve the untimely death of a Carrie Nation disciple. The history of the temperance movement and saloon culture of Baltimore will come to “ghostly” life as the dwelling’s most fascinating spirits recount their versions of the tragic event. This is not a typical haunted house full of blood, guts and gore or Hollywood's frightful characters on hand to fray the nerves. A few drops of blood will set the scene for this 2007 murder mystery ghost tour based on the hatchetations of saloons at the turn of the century by Carrie Nation and her followers. The tour brings fact and fiction together for a unique “edutainment” event. Tickets are $10 for adults, $9 for seniors 65 and older and military with an ID, and $6 for children 7-12 years of age. This event is not recommended for children under 7 years old. Group rates are available. Group tours will be scheduled for October 25th and 26 th , and from 6-7 on October 27 th . For additional information, please call Carroll Museums at 410-605-2964 or visit the event website at www.carrollmuseums.org. *** 800 East Lombard Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21202 T 410.605.2964 F 410.528.1196 www.carrollmuseums.org .

The Guy's Guide to Baltimore
The Guy's Guide to Baltimore 101 Ways To Be A True Baltimorean! By Christina Breda Antoniades. Edited by Ken Iglehart. Let’s assume, for argument’s sake, that you’ve mastered the Baltimore lexicon. You know that “far trucks” put out “fars” and that a “bulled aig” is something you eat. You know the best places to park for O’s games, where the speed traps are on I-83, and which streets have synchronized traffic lights. You know how to shell a steamed crab. You never, EVER attempt to go downy ocean on a Friday evening in the dead of summer. And, let’s face it, you get a little upset when your friends from D.C. call you a Baltimoro… well, you know. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Do you really know all it takes to be a true Baltimorean? ¶ Here, we’ve compiled a list of the 101 activities, quirky habits, and oddball pastimes, that, even if you only did half of them, would earn you certification as a true Baltimorean. Some have stood the test of time, some are new favorites, but all are unique to Charm City. If you’re a grizzled native, you’ll probably find our list a fun test that takes you down memory lane. And if you’re new in town, the guide below will definitely help you to pass yourself off as a local. ¶ So, whether you’ve been here 60 days or 60 years, we’re sure you’ll find something new (or long forgotten) in the pages that follow.
