The Historic Drish House

The Drish House, that delighted many of us as the focal point of the 2nd story - "Death Lights in the Tower" from the beloved book "Thirteen Alabama Ghosts and Jeffrey" has been lovingly restored by Nika McCool. "The Drish" now serves as the epicenter of activity in Tuscaloosa's up and coming West Side. Private events can be booked in this beautiful locale, and it is also home to many festive public events. The Drish is open for tours by appointment. An event at The Drish is an event to remember. We hope to see you soon!
