World's First Coffin-Aged (Potentially Haunted) Wine

Would you drink haunted wine?
Published October 30, 2023

English winemaker 19 Crimes is raising a glass to the macabre with their latest creation: coffin-aged wine. In a publicity stunt fit for Halloween, the company buried 100 bottles of red wine six feet under in a Victorian cemetery, supposedly allowing them to slumber amongst the dearly departed.

But fear not (or perhaps fear more?), the bottles have been unearthed, with a priest present for good measure – just to be safe from any lingering spirits that might have taken a liking to the vintage. Even still, exorcist Ian Lawman casts some doubt on the ritual's effectiveness, suggesting the wine might still be "cursed."

This chilling concept isn't just for show. 19 Crimes is offering brave souls the chance to sample this "sinister sip" at select locations across the UK during Halloween weekend. Whether the experience will be a hauntingly delicious adventure or a recipe for a spooky stomach ache remains to be seen.

The big question: will this fermented foray into the afterlife be available for purchase? 19 Crimes remains tight-lipped on the matter. But one thing's for certain: paranormal enthusiasts and horror hounds alike would likely pay a premium to own a bottle of this potentially possessed red.
