Things to do in Baltimore, Maryland (MD): The Best Nightlife
Since the redevelopment of the Inner Harbor in the late 1970s, Baltimore has set the standard for urban renewal. While a good part of the city's action centers around the fun and festive Harbor area, where street entertainers, open-air concerts, fireworks and parades abound, the surrounding neighborhoods offer all sorts of interesting landmarks, unique shops and delicious restaurants. Wander around Fells Point, the oldest section of Baltimore, reminiscent of an old English village, complete with pubs and cobblestone streets. Take the kids to the aquarium and check out the imaginative creations at the American Visionary Art Museum. Or stop by the Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum for an in-depth look at the Great Bambino's life. Baltimore is also renowned for its African-American heritage sites, plus festivals and cultural events that take place throughout the year. From historic places and harbor cruises to family friendly attractions and fabulous neighborhoods, Charm City is one of the top tourist destinations in the United States.

Spencer Horsman is a GIFTED magician/escape artist/comedian and puts on a GREAT show in this 1920's style theater. From the beginning to the end, you will laugh, be spell-bound, hold your breath, and be amazed! The price is reasonable ($20/$30). Spencer waits the bar, puts on the show and talks to the guests after. Go! Before he gets famous and doesn't do this anymore!

Every now and again, you discover a place that sets the standard (can't say sets the "bar" in this case - because that's what it is!). Downstairs, tucked under the Admiral Fell Inn at Fells Point is the "Secret Bar." Small; quaint; non-descript. An eclectic music mix always playing. Often, you can smell fresh mint - because Steve the Bartender grows his own! He is, far and away, the best bartender I've ever encountered. A true artist. He creates new and makes the standards unlike anyone out there. And if you happen to like the proverbial Moscow Mule - part of the reason it will be the best you ever had, is that he brews his own ginger beer! And if you need something dangerously refreshing - try the punch! Whatever the cocktail - this guy sets the standard. A local, and upstanding member and contributor to the local community - Steve can tell you amazing things about the history of the area. He's even found some peach trees in the downtown area, a unique variety that's been there since colonial times! Of course he's found a way to build them into one of his unique cocktails. This place is one of a kind. If you're in the area, make it a point of finding this secret place (not so secret to the locals!). Say hello to Steve and prepare to have the best version of whatever it is that you order.

I attended the last ghost Hunt of the season last night. I had a great time. Vince was very knowledgeable and I had great conversations with him. I loved the Speakeasy, and the Ball rooms. I wished the Sky Bar doors to the roof were opened to investigate out there, but maybe next time. The Spirit session was pretty cool and we did have some shadows out and about. this was a great Trip. I was here for a Scentsy conference and saw they had a ghost hunt at the hotel, and being a paranormal investigator, I couldn't pass this up.
