Can I Get You a Drink? True Stories of Female Poisoners via Zoom

Thursday, October 29, 2026
6:30 PM7:30 PM

Join writer and researcher, Erin E. Moulton via Zoom, as we explore five female poisoners from American history, the drinks that did them in, and the trials that followed their deadly deeds. We’ll travel from a case of contaminated gin in 1890s Maine to a small barn dance with a horrifying twist in 1920s California. We’ll chase down prohibition era rumrunners and investigate one of New England’s most famous serial killers. Which drink was the deadliest? What motivation did each woman have? And were they all truly guilty of the crime? We will show this presentation on the big screen at the library and Via Zoom. Sponsored by the Friends of the Meredith Library. Erin E.
