I yelped with excitement when I discovered this DC Haunted House Tour just three weeks before I'm moving away to an older, presumably more haunted city.  I've taken many ghost tours in Savannah and Williamsburg and absolutely love a good legend and fright!  Tonight should be a good night for a swampy tour of the district, especially if we have a good tour guide, which can totally make or break the experience.  If only they had drinking ghost tours...

After finding this tour, I did a little googling around about DC ghosts and naturally came across the "true" story of The Excorcist, which is the source of much speculation and legend among college students and DC residents.  I found this fascinating article about one guy's journey to understand the historical context of the movie:  http://www.strangemag.com/exorcistpage1.html

Join me tonight from 7-9 for a tour of DC's most haunted historical homes! It's only $10!  More info can be found at:  http://www.washingtonwalks.com/tours/haunted-houses.shtml

Summon up your courage and meet your tour guide (and me!) at the 27th st exit of the Farragut West metro station at 7pm.  If you can't make it tonight, go any Wednesday, or try the "Capital Hauntings" tour on friday nights.
