The Haunts of Richmond offers a frighteningly good time as it offers you a chance to tour Shockoe Bottom, Richmond's oldest and most haunted neighborhood. This tour brings to life the city's legends and ghost stories more vividly than any 3D movie ever could. This experience is brought to life by the authors of Haunted Richmond: The Shadows of Shockoe, and their expertise and personal stories only make this tour all the more dramatic.
There's no question that Edgar Allan Poe was one of the world's most notable authors. His legacy and life are remembered in Richmond's Edgar Allan Poe Museum. See some of Poe's personal effects, first editions as well as the world's largest collection of original Poe manuscripts. All of these compelling pieces help give a more focused picture of one of the world's most enigmatic literary masters.
Richmond's 2nd Street Festival is held every October. Like many of the historical places and events that are associated with the city, this festival links the historical past to the prosperous present in the city's notable African American district where the event is held. Enjoy great soul food, live jazz and a festival that echoes back to the celebrations held back in the 20s, 30s, and 40s. It's an excellent party you won't want to miss.
