All Hallows Eve is rolling up fast and if wicked scary is your thing, we have a suggestion or two!
 Chilling Tales of Edgar Allen Poe by the Salem Theater Company should prove to be a wonderful time for all.
“The STC brings back the creepiest of the classics, with new adaptations of master works of the macabre by Edgar Allan Poe and Salem’s own Nathaniel Hawthorne, on stage for the seventh annual presentation of Chilling Tales this October.

Presented once again in conjunction with the National Parks Service, this year’s Chilling Tales is not to be missed. In celebration of the 200th anniversary of Poe’s birth, the STC will stage two of his most gruesome, terrifying tales, as well as an additional offering from Hawthorne, at the historic Salem Custom House on Derby Street, directly opposite Derby Wharf.”
Now through October 31st in Historic Salem, Massachusetts.
