Located just across the border from Washington, D.C., the town of Bethesda, Maryland is a fairly…read morewell-to-do suburb and one of the last places one might expect to find a fantastical novelty house. The house at 4949 Allan Road in Bethesda has become something of a landmark, known for the curved canopies that earned it the name "the Mushroom House." The bumpy edges and pointed tip give the house a shape slightly reminiscent of a Dr. Seuss doodle. As it turns out, though, the original design was not particularly child-friendly.

It's a public area, and as much money as you might have, maybe if you had done your research you would have known. There's countless public records on the ridiculously silly Bunnyman Lore stories and the like. Doubtful it's true, as without evidence, the bunnyman and other legends don't exist. If young people mostly want to check this out, at least they're doing something relatively safe, compared to partying with booze or fentanyl. There's not really much to see here. To drive back here takes considerable effort for nada. A bridge. Big deal. Feel free to waste time with it, and if the Bunnyman stuff intrigues you, by all means have fun. On a plus note it is a pretty part of the county. I hope all who visit are respectful, but as it is a public place, people who live in the area should have done their due diligence.

So it looks and sounds cool based on the story on their web site. But would it actually deliver the scary goods? I went last Friday night on my way home from Shenandoah National Park. I arrived about 6:40 pm and bought my ticket - $10.00. The first hour The Un-lucky Inn conducts a non-scary version for little kids to go through. While you are waiting, a couple of vendors are selling food - one has hot chocolate and coffee for sale, the other is Red Hot and Blue - selling pulled pork and chicken sandwiches - just in time for you to eat them, then enter the Un-lucky Inn - and lose your lunch! :-) At 7:30 pm, they begin the real horror. Groups are sent though with a couple of guides, no more than eight people per group. You cross the yard and enter the Un-lucky Inn. I am not going to give away the scary details as I want others to be properly frightened and terrified. Suffice to say, this is to date the best and scariest haunted house I have experienced as an adult. Go, go to The Un-lucky Inn. You may check in, but you will never check out! Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

The Un-Lucky Inn is not a pofessional haunted house, its ran by volunteers of Reminton Fire house…read more People from surronding counties came to volunteer to help with the haunt. I should know, I was one of the main actors.. or actress you should say. Its a timing and tiring process but we did it, cause we enjoy scaring people. :) The Un-Lucky Inn is filled with any possible scary effects that would make a grown man cry, or #2 himself. Gladly tho, there are porta pottys near, so if you gotta go befor and after, its there for you. That is not a lie, I had to clean up my station plenty of times. Yes, there may be a line to wait in, but doesnt all haunted houses? At least there is a barrel of fire to keep you warm before your haunt, and great food and drinks for sale. Have kids too scared to go thru the regular haunt, there is a scare free tour for the little ones or the faint at heart ones.. Its a great haunted house to go to. No only will we give you the heeby jeebies, but the real owner of this house. Mr. Lucky himself. He still resides in this house, i swear. I work in the house, yet, I even get scared just going back and forth in the house. I hope you will check out the house someday. ITs a fright you will never forget. Rescue teams available if needed. NO DRUGS OR ALCOHOL PERMITTED ON GROUNDS. if you come in drunk or high, we will notify police.

This is where the first Metro stop is when you're coming from Dulles. You can get off and explore the area, or follow 23rd Street to other places. Around here are quite a few attractions. One of the best is the Kennedy Center. The only thing I know about it is the Kennedy Center Awards, but there's other stuff going on. If school is in session, this place is ridiculously busy. The George Washington University campus is the heart of the neighborhood. It might be a fun game counting the Starbucks in the area. There's a ton of them. It overall is a nice neighborhood to look around. Just look because it's out of the price range of most people. There are some cool restaurants and stores.

Additionally, it offers a great view of Rosslyn, Georgetown, and the Potomac. It is one of those experiences in the city that takes you away while still being present. A couple of downsides to this area is that it can be a bit sketchy and you're best to watch your back when you come up here. On the flip side, they're there for the same purpose that you are - to chill. You leave them alone and you will be left alone. It is easy to access for the most part. Just take the stairs up from the parking below by the kayaks and you'll find yourself on the C & O Trail. Wear good shoes. You will be better off than wearing sandals.

I didn't even know the Graffiti Cliffs of Georgetown even existed (even) until my most recent visit, which is weird because I know everything, lol, and I used to live around here. But it's a must visit. I love it. The views are amazing and the graffiti on all of the cliffs and things around here is awesome. The sometimes strict local police let everything go here, so it's basically just a free artistic place. It's sort of like a tolerance zone for prostitution, but instead, it's art. Although Barbi and I consider some forms of prostitution to be art, too, especially when we do it. So Graffiti. Not as much fun as prostitution but it might be better to look at depending on who the client is. I mean artist. However, I learned that just a few weeks after I visited here, they closed it off. Not even for Coronavirus, but before Corona. Hopefully it'll be opened up again as soon as Coronavirus is over. It better be.
