Cocktails & Stories in the Raven’s Nest
A haunting blend of literature and libations
NEW THIS YEAR!
This fall, professional storytellers bring to life the “powerful graphic effect” that Washington Irving once praised in Edgar Allan Poe’s writing, with haunting renditions of The Raven, The Tell-Tale Heart, The Black Cat, and The Masque of the Red Death. Each tale is paired with a complementary cocktail or mocktail designed to capture the spirit of the story.
The evening begins in the Library, where visitors enjoy their first drink while standing among the shelves, listening to a creepy tale. From there, the experience deepens in an intimate theater setting, with three more of Poe’s dark masterpieces performed in turn, as those gathered sip drinks, nibble biscotti, and savor a piece of fine chocolate—indulgences to savor in the night’s shadows.
