Ever want to take a trolley tour at night, visiting murder sites in an trolley painted black, and tromping around two old burial grounds in the dark, led by a costumed tour guide dressed like someone making a cheesy cameo on The Addams Family? Join us for some spooky fun on one of our many Halloween themed tours Nerd Fun will be taking this October. Your costumed guide will describe some of the spooky stories of Boston. We held this event once before, and we have the pictures to prove it! http://socialnetwork.meetup.com/718/photos/435344/ ... the guides are there to entertain you, not to scare you (BOO!) with cheap tricks. No flashing lights to make you jump. No bells. No whistles. Just good old fashioned storytelling, with just a few theatrics to enhance the story.
Price: $36.00. Reserve a spot at[masked] and leaving your name and phone number on where they can reach you, and mention your interest in the Wednesday, October 22, 2008 tour.
