Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Lord Baltimore Hotel is a 22-story French Renaissance hotel that stands 289 feet tall. It is the largest hotel in Maryland, located downtown, it’s an ideal place for business travelers, as well as people who are seeking respite from the many demands of life…and death!

The Lord Baltimore Hotel is rife with reports of ghosts. The ghost of the young girl is continuously seen on the hotel’s 19th floor and even in the ballroom. She is often seen in her long, cream dress and black shoes playing with her red bouncing ball. Employees have seen the ghost of the little girl, as well as the ghosts of two adults.

Sometimes, the little girl can be seen screaming, crying, and rocking herself back and forth. There is talk of a young girl’s suicide on the 19th floor. It is said that the hotel’s elevators make constant trips to the 19th floor at night, even when no one is ringing the bell. People have reported being touched by unseen hands in the elevator and the lobby. Guests who are sensitive to the paranormal have reported waking up with nightmares. They have also complained about an unseen presence lingering in their rooms while they sleep.

We will be investigating different areas every tour. Every time you come, the ghost tour will be slightly different. Some locations are subject to availability. Some of the areas might include:

• The 19th floor – The Hotel’s most haunted floor
• The Speakeasy – Crimes committed during prohibition may have resulted in murder!
• 8th floor – The spirit of Lourde has been seen here!

This St. Patrick’s Day, skip the crowded bars and green beer—Twisted Knickers Burlesque invites you to "Get Lucky" with an evening of dazzling, daring, and delightfully irreverent entertainment! Featuring a lineup of award-winning burlesque performers from the Baltimore and D.C. area, this show is hotter than a pot of gold and wilder than a leprechaun on a whiskey bender. Expect an intoxicating mix of sexy, silly, and spectacular performances that will leave you seeing shamrocks.

Your enchanting cast includes:

✨ Tapitha Kix – Producer of Twisted Knickers Burlesque and the “Tapping Tease” herself! Maybe she'll add a little riverdancing to her usual seductive footwork.

✨ Hot Todd Lincoln – Sideshow performer, magician, and strongman with a knack for snappy one-liners. Prepare for puns, punchlines, and at least one “Erin go braless” joke.

✨ Caza Blanca – Described as "the love child of Marilyn Monroe and Tim Curry," she can be sultry in one act and absolutely terrifying in the next. (Spoiler: she's not a natural redhead.)

✨ Bunny Vicious – This mischievous bunny always has tricks up her corset and a story too scandalous for social media (seriously—she’s permanently banned from Facebook). Ask her about Irish handcuffs… if you dare.

✨ Coco Gateaux – Her motto? Life’s too short to skip dessert. Expect a performance that’s as sweet as cake and twice as sinful—definitely not Irish soda bread.

✨ Miss Leo Diamond – High class, a lil’ sass, and a lotta ass. She’s enough to send you straight to confession with Father O'Flannigan.

✨ Dirk Hamfist – The "Chuck Norris" of burlesque. Our ruggedly handsome stagehand who’s as easy on the eyes as he is handy backstage.
