The Victorian age was the era of spiritual awakening when the Fox Sisters began communicating with spirits, now called Spirit Circles or Séances. It was also the time that tea was served in parlors and in those teacups held the answers to the future…

Come, if you dare, to A Victorian Haunting Experience where by day Dearborn's McFadden Ross House Museum sits in all her glory with charm and elegance, but at night the moon casts shadows over the gracious museum and it transforms into something more frightening … or at least for one night errrr..two nights- Friday, October 30 from 6:30 p.m. - 10:30 p.m. and Saturday, October 31 from 6:30p.m. - 10:30 p.m.

Join The League of Extraordinary Paranormal Women as they turn the clock back over 200 years so that you can experience a Halloween Party with A Victorian Haunting Experience.

Amy Williamson says “You've stepped into the McFadden Ross Museum, where for two nights we are going to take you back over 200 years. Now, I'd like you to sit back and close your eyes for a moment. Listen to the music swell on the grand piano as it takes you back, back into time. Back into a world where the macabre is the norm. Prepare yourself, for as you open those peepers, you are going to be entering into an authentic Victorian Parlor where tea and frights will be on the menu. The amazing experiences you are about to witness are going to take you on a suspense filled journey. Your spine will tingle and I promise you an experience in excitement that will twist your emotions into knots! Do things go bump in the night, do spirits really exist? Tonight we will find out... At the Dearborn Mcfadden Ross House! Enjoy”!
