Embark on the ultimate outdoor “escape room” at Cemetery Gin’s Hunt for Spirits, Oct. 8, 2022. As one of America’s spookiest towns, Virginia City is the perfect destination for this tasty scavenger hunt. Costume up and use your knowledge of the town to solve clues, unscramble a secret message, and enjoy spirited samples along the way. If you make it to the end and solve the riddle, spin for fun Virginia City prizes. Be sure to stop by the Cemetery Gin tasting locations around town, each featuring delicious Cemetery Gin mixed drink samples, and vote for your favorite concoction.

Tickets for Cemetery Gin’s Hunt for the Spirits is $35 in advance and includes a map with clues to 20 locations throughout town, 12 of them serving up scrumptious samples. For those wanting to solve the clues only, tickets are $25 and do not include samples.

Since we know you’ll want to take some home, bottles of Cemetery Gin are available for purchase at the Visitors Center, 86 S. C Street, or at locations throughout northern Nevada.

Event check-in takes place at Piper’s Opera House on B Street and starts at 10 a.m. The event takes place from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m.

Stay the weekend and enjoy the many other Halloween events throughout the town.
