Rosenbach hosting Edgar Allan Poe reading on Friday the 13th

Event is part of the museum's Bibliococktails Series

On Friday the 13th this October, embrace the creepy with a reading of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" at the Rosenbach Museum & Library.

Cocktails from Quaker City Mercantile will be on-hand to warm you from the inside out when Poe's words become too chilling.

The drink's recipe is shrouded in mystery, but we do know it's called "Nepenthe."
