Bloody Brunch
Ox-Bow lore comes alive. John Rossi, our Facilities Manager and resident keeper of Ox-Bow stories, leads 2025 Bloody Brunch guests through campus on a haunted tour, cloaked in mystery and a few very old tales.
Food, Spirits, and Stories from the Grounds
A taste of what was served at the 2025 Bloody Brunch, prepared by the Ox-Bow kitchen team.
Join us for Bloody Brunch, a fall gathering featuring a meal prepared by our esteemed kitchen team, a little Ox-Bow lore, and a tour of our hallowed (and perhaps haunted) grounds.
Enjoy a festive meal, with your choice of a Bloody Mary from the bar or a mimosa. Depending on your seating time, you’ll enjoy an exclusive, hour-long haunted tour before or after brunch.
The tour is led by John Rossi, Ox-Bow’s Facilities Manager and resident keeper of Ox-Bow’s many stories, histories, and legends. John will lead guests through the grounds, sharing tales from Ox-Bow’s past and present. Ghost encounters are possible, though not guaranteed.
Come hungry, stay curious, and keep an eye on the shadows.
As a (grave)marker of your time at Ox-Bow, each guest will also take home a unique piece of hand-blown Ox-Bow glassware, crafted on campus by our glass team.
