Gaslamp Museum at the Davis-Horton House
The Davis-Horton House: Alive with Spirits from the Past?
Find out for yourself. Touted by many as, “the most haunted house in the Gaslamp Quarter,” the Davis-Horton House has become a highly popular place for investigating paranormal activities — occurrences that fall outside of what’s considered normal or that can’t be explained scientifically. Paranormal research teams present evidence to support their claims of having made contact with several house spirits. They’ve recorded voices, taken photos, and shot video to document their surprising findings. These other-worldly experiences are available to the public through monthly Paranormal Investigations tours, led by San Diego Ghost Hunters, a professional paranormal research team that conducts on-site investigations.
Since space is limited, we require that you make reservations and pay in advance for the Ghost Tour and Investigation. You may make your reservation via our website, or you can call for reservations at (619) 233-4692.
Admission for this two-hour tour and investigation is $40.00.
When: Saturday, March 25
Where: 410 Island Avenue, San Diego, CA 92101

Balboa Theatre
Cinema @ The Balboa: Alfred Hitchcock Double Feature REAR WINDOW & VERTIGO
“A good film is when the price of the dinner, the theatre admission and the babysitter were worth it.” –Alfred Hitchcock
Renowned for his work as the Master of Suspense, Alfred Hitchcock’s creations are as enduring in their longevity as they are lasting in their imprint on the psyche. Much of Hitchcock’s work walks the fine line between the randomized rhythms of life, and a morality play, leaving the viewer with the unsettled sense that something might have been done to stop the carnage. As Hitchcock himself once said, he is a typed director– if he made Cinderella, his audience would be expecting to find a body in the Coach
Rear Window will begin at 1:00pm with a 15 minute intermission afterwards, followed by Vertigo at approximately 3:15pm.
When: Sunday, March 26
Where: 868 Fourth Avenue, San Diego, CA 92101
DINING SPECIAL:
