SUMMARY:Chaos\, Cupcakes & Caffeine: No One is Safe Edition
DESCRIPTION:Decorate cupcakes. Drink caffeine. Survive the roast. Includes 4 themed cupcakes + unlimited roasting. It’s not a class—it’s an experience. \n📞 Do you like decorating cupcakes? Good. Because once the frosting starts\, no one is safe… not even you. \nWHO: You. Yes\, you. The one who watches horror movies and loudly insists you would absolutely not go into that room. Ages 18+ only. \nWHAT: A cupcake decorating chaos experience. You’ll be given cupcakes\, frosting\, tools\, and a series of unpredictable\, high-energy challenges designed to test creativity\, quick thinking\, and your ability to function while everything gets progressively more unhinged. Nothing is scripted. No one is safe from what happens next. \nWHEN: Friday\, October 23rd | 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM \nWHERE: The Train Depot – 2230 Buechel Ave\, Louisville\, KY 40218 \nWHY: Because life needs more chaos and frosting. Because you’ve spent years yelling at the screen during scary movies. Because deep down\, you’ve always wanted to see what happens when things don’t go according to plan… with buttercream involved. \nHOW: Buy a ticket. Show up. Decorate. Try to keep up. We provide the cupcakes\, tools\, frosting\, and a series of surprise twists throughout the night that will keep everyone on their toes. Expect chaos. Expect laughter. Expect frosting everywhere. \n🔪 CHAOS\, CUPCAKES & CAFFEINE: NO ONE IS SAFE EDITION 🔪 Just when you think you’re safe… you’re not. Just when you think you’re done… there’s more frosting.

SUMMARY:Brightside & WM Community-Wide Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:Our next Brightside & WM Community-Wide Cleanup will be Saturday\, October 24\, 2026!\nWe encourage all residents to take part in Brightside’s Community-Wide Cleanups.

SUMMARY:The Haunted Trolley Tour: 2-Hour Ghost Tour in Old Louisville\, The Highlands & Downtown | promo code!
DESCRIPTION:Venture under the cover of darkness aboard one of our vintage trolleys to find the side of Bourbon City that many are too afraid to look for. As the sun sets over Old Louisville’s gaslit streets\, our expert storyteller will guide you through two centuries of restless spirits\, haunted landmarks\, and paranormal legends that have made Louisville one of the most paranormally active cities in America. One part ghost story\, one part true crime — every tale grim\, and every tale true. \nBook your tour here!\nUse code “thingstolou10” to save 10%!\n\nThis 2-hour narrated ride begins in the Victorian heart of Old Louisville — long whispered to be America’s most haunted neighborhood — before winding through the Highlands and into the heart of Downtown\, with a stop along the way for a drink at one of the city’s own haunted haunts. \nUnder all of her grandeur\, Derby City hides her darkest secrets in plain sight. Hop on\, if you dare. \nWhat’s included\nTransportation aboard a historic trolley \nNarration from an expert local Ghost Host and tour guide \nSpine-tingling tales of haunted Louisville landmarks and neighborhoods \nWhat’s not included\nAdmission to attractions or museums along the route \nGratuity for your driver & tour guide \nHotel pickup and drop-off \nGhost hunting (but if you meet one\, please let us know) \nItinerary\nOn your 2-hour haunted journey\, you’ll ride between neighborhoods aboard your haunted trolley\, hopping off with your guide to walk the very streets\, sidewalks\, and shadowed corners where these stories took place. \nStart in Old Louisville\, America’s most haunted neighborhood: Begin on an eerily quiet court in America’s largest Victorian neighborhood\, where you’ll hear tales of mansions hiding dark secrets\, quiet inns where phantom residents are said to still linger behind lace curtains\, and a butcher who met the gallows swearing his innocence. \nHop on the Haunted Trolley: Take a ride through Louisville’s historic streets aboard a lantern-lit trolley and hear the horrifying tale of the deadliest train wreck in Kentucky history\, whose passengers some say never departed. Let’s hope they’re not still on board with us…. \nThe Historic Highlands: Head back in time to a Victorian neighborhood a half-century older than Old Louisville\, to a graveyard where the dead were buried atop the dead\, names lost to time and bodies stolen and mutilated. \nStop for Spirits: Pause for a drink at one of Louisville’s own haunted haunts before continuing deeper into the city’s darkest history. \nMake Your Way Downtown: Wind through the city’s haunted heart. Here you’ll find a luxurious hotel where a bride in blue never checked out and traverse streets that once ran with floodwater so deep that the bodies of the drowned floated right up against the cast-iron facades and windows above. Nearby\, the ashes of a deadly hotel fire still cling to the ground where it once stood. \n\nThis tour is made possible by an exclusive partnership between Louisville Food Tours and Old Fashioned Express\, Louisville’s locally-owned trolley company. \n\nCheck-in details\n\nPlease arrive 15 minutes early to check in with your trolley driver and haunted host. All guests must be onboard at the trolley departure time – we don’t want you to miss your ride! \n\n\nOverview\nDuration: 2 Hours\nMeeting point: 1402 Saint James Court Louisville\, KY US 40208\nCancellations: Refundable Tickets allow changes or refunds with at least 48 hours’ notice. Non-Refundable Tickets cannot be changed or refunded.\nGroup size: Up to 30 People\nAccessibility: Wheelchair accessible with advance notice \n\nThink of our tour guides as your personal photographers!

SUMMARY:The Haunted Trolley Tour: 2-Hour Ghost Tour in Old Louisville\, The Highlands & Downtown | promo code!
DESCRIPTION:Venture under the cover of darkness aboard one of our vintage trolleys to find the side of Bourbon City that many are too afraid to look for. As the sun sets over Old Louisville’s gaslit streets\, our expert storyteller will guide you through two centuries of restless spirits\, haunted landmarks\, and paranormal legends that have made Louisville one of the most paranormally active cities in America. One part ghost story\, one part true crime — every tale grim\, and every tale true. \nBook your tour here!\nUse code “thingstolou10” to save 10%!\n\nThis 2-hour narrated ride begins in the Victorian heart of Old Louisville — long whispered to be America’s most haunted neighborhood — before winding through the Highlands and into the heart of Downtown\, with a stop along the way for a drink at one of the city’s own haunted haunts. \nUnder all of her grandeur\, Derby City hides her darkest secrets in plain sight. Hop on\, if you dare. \nWhat’s included\nTransportation aboard a historic trolley \nNarration from an expert local Ghost Host and tour guide \nSpine-tingling tales of haunted Louisville landmarks and neighborhoods \nWhat’s not included\nAdmission to attractions or museums along the route \nGratuity for your driver & tour guide \nHotel pickup and drop-off \nGhost hunting (but if you meet one\, please let us know) \nItinerary\nOn your 2-hour haunted journey\, you’ll ride between neighborhoods aboard your haunted trolley\, hopping off with your guide to walk the very streets\, sidewalks\, and shadowed corners where these stories took place. \nStart in Old Louisville\, America’s most haunted neighborhood: Begin on an eerily quiet court in America’s largest Victorian neighborhood\, where you’ll hear tales of mansions hiding dark secrets\, quiet inns where phantom residents are said to still linger behind lace curtains\, and a butcher who met the gallows swearing his innocence. \nHop on the Haunted Trolley: Take a ride through Louisville’s historic streets aboard a lantern-lit trolley and hear the horrifying tale of the deadliest train wreck in Kentucky history\, whose passengers some say never departed. Let’s hope they’re not still on board with us…. \nThe Historic Highlands: Head back in time to a Victorian neighborhood a half-century older than Old Louisville\, to a graveyard where the dead were buried atop the dead\, names lost to time and bodies stolen and mutilated. \nStop for Spirits: Pause for a drink at one of Louisville’s own haunted haunts before continuing deeper into the city’s darkest history. \nMake Your Way Downtown: Wind through the city’s haunted heart. Here you’ll find a luxurious hotel where a bride in blue never checked out and traverse streets that once ran with floodwater so deep that the bodies of the drowned floated right up against the cast-iron facades and windows above. Nearby\, the ashes of a deadly hotel fire still cling to the ground where it once stood. \n\nThis tour is made possible by an exclusive partnership between Louisville Food Tours and Old Fashioned Express\, Louisville’s locally-owned trolley company. \n\nCheck-in details\n\nPlease arrive 15 minutes early to check in with your trolley driver and haunted host.
