Terror Behind the Walls & Philly Cheesesteaks

Eastern State Penitentiary

About this event

NCC Terror Behind the Walls at Eastern State Penitentiary

and

Cheesesteaks

8 November 2014

REGISTRATIONS AFTER NOVEMBER 4, 2014, THERE IS NO GUARANTEE YOU WILL ENTER THE PRISON WITH OUR GROUP AT THE SAME TIME.  YOU MAY ENTER AT A SEPARATE TIME.  i.e. the main group enters at 1830hrs, but you may not enter until thereafter.  It depends on if there are more tickets available for the 1830hrs time slot.

 

We will visit take a our Bimmers to the City of Brotherly Love for some haunted fun and cheesesteaks.

We will visit the Terror Behind the Walls haunted house at Eastern State Penitentiary. PLEASE READ THEIR FAQ section.  There are rules for attire and children.  Cost is $28 for entry.  Tickets will be purchased by the tourmeister in advance and dispersed.  Because the lot next to the prison is small and not conducive to cars allergic to dings and scratches, we will park at the new Philadelphia Zoo garage.  Parking cost is $13.  There is a free shuttle to take us to the prison.

For our cheesesteaks we will stop by Max's Steaks.  I grew up equidistant between NY & Philly.  I have been to every popular known cheesesteak joint in Philly including the tourist traps, Pat's and Geno's.  I have to say that by far Max's is one of the best so far.  Of course, this could turn into a which oil is best for my car, so I digress.

Max's however is not in the best neighborhood.  Myself and Chapter President Paul have been three times (twice with our significant other) and we have not had any issues.  When we did the visit with the NCC tour group, there were no issues either.  Fun and friendly atmosphere.  Max's has a great parking lot next door.  Read the below reviews for more insight.  Seating is extremely limited.  If push comes to shove we can always head over to the Philly Zoo parking garage where we will park for the Haunted Prison and eat there.  So bring a chair. 

Once done eating feel free to take a stroll along the Schuylkill River down to the Museum of Art or take the shuttle until we have to make our way over to the prison..
