The clearest link between Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado” and this Halloween party is on the program: sherry tastings. The Oct. 31 gathering takes place upstairs at Swann House above Bar Dalí, with passed tapas, drinks, a DJ and dancing.
A literary reference made literal
The event describes Poe’s story as a spooky tale focused on sherry, then puts tastings among the party’s activities. The listing does not identify the sherries or explain the tasting format, so visitors cannot plan around particular pours or a structured tasting.
Passed tapas and drinks are also announced. No specific dishes or event menu are named; Bar Dalí’s regular menu offers context for the restaurant, not a confirmed preview of what will be served upstairs.

Two costume awards, no published running order
Guests are invited to dress up, with awards listed for Best Overall Costume and Best Edgar Allan Poe. The categories make both a general Halloween costume and a Poe-inspired look relevant, but the announcement does not give judging criteria or prize details.
The listing names tastings, food, drinks, DJ music and dancing without assigning them times. It also gives no start or end time, so there is no published schedule for planning around the awards or tasting.

The party upstairs, a separate restaurant option below
Swann House is the party venue above Bar Dalí at 909 N. Charles St. Bar Dalí’s Halloween page separately offers dinner or drinks downstairs, by reservation or walk-in. That restaurant visit is not described as part of the ticketed upstairs party.
The distinction matters if dinner is part of the plan: Bar Dalí describes its regular approach as drawing on the communal tapas-bar culture of Spain’s large cities, where people gather over drinks and share plates. The restaurant says its tapas use ingredients primarily from local regenerative farms and Chesapeake watermen, and that its menus change seasonally. Those are details about Bar Dalí’s regular practice, not assurances about this party’s menu or sourcing.
