We have recently had a guest staying at the Bailey’s Uptown Inn who has a family member at Baylor Hospital. She has been with us for over 6 weeks. She started me thinking. We are located just 1.7 miles from Baylor. We should see if there are other families out there who don’t want to stay at a hotel, they want to stay someplace more like home. We offer a special rate for family and friends of Baylor patients. Call now – (214) 720-2258 or email info@baileysuptowninn.com.
One of the advantages is that once you learn the route from Bailey’s Uptown Inn to Baylor (which is displayed below), you really don’t have to learn your way around Dallas because you can walk to just about anything in Uptown. In Uptown you can walk to restaurants, drug store, grocery, shopping, dry cleaning, hair salons, all without getting in your car.

If you’re looking for something to do this weekend and you live in Dallas, or you’re staying at Bailey’s Uptown Inn, take a look at our suggestions.
The Fatal West End Haunted House
If you’re in the mood for a Halloween-y outing, and aren’t too much of a scaredy-cat, head over to the West End for Dallas’s most terrifying haunted house. The House is laid out over two subterranean floors of one of Dallas’s oldest buildings, and one that many locals claim is haunted, to boot. There’s no phony plywood here: all the creaking floorboards are real. The Fatal End also boasts some of the best-trained actors of any haunted house in the country. Tickets are $25 at the door.
Hitchcock-tober
The Angelika Film Center will be showing the classic Hitchcock thriller “Psycho” this Thursday, October 27, for free. The movie will be shown on the theater’s patio, so you’ll also get to enjoy the fresh fall weather. The event’s organizers suggest bringing blankets for picnic-style seating. The Film Center itself, which is located in Mockingbird Station, also features a full bar, so enjoy a drink while you watch this suspenseful classic.
Paul Simon
Paul Simon is playing at the Verizon Theater at Grand Prairie on Friday, October 28, at 8:00 P.M. Simon is a world-renowned musician who has won twelve Grammy awards in his lifetime. Originally part of a duo with Art Garfunkel, Simon now tours solo, but still plays many of the hits from him Simon & Garfunkel days. Some of Simon’s most famous tunes are “The Sound of Silence,” “Kodachrome,” and my personal favorite, “You Can Call Me Al.” Ticket prices vary, but they usually begin around $20 for decent seats and max out at around $100 for front-row. The theater isn’t close to Uptown, but for Paul Simon I will rive 20 minutes.
