'Tis The Wind and Nothing More Immersive Tour
You are invited to step into the past and join the enigmatic Jessie Clarke as she hosts her annual literary salon. Jessie Clarke lived at the Octagon House over a century ago, until her death in 1933 — one of the house's most curious figures, and much of her life remains shrouded in mystery. Set aside for her by wealthy relatives, the house was her home for 25 years, where legend holds she lived largely alone. Her story carries added layers of intrigue: the nature of her health in those years remains undocumented and much debated.
Join us for October chills on this tour, which combines history with a touch of the unknown. This dramatic, immersive experience concludes with a riveting reading of "The Raven," performed by Edgar Allan Poe himself.
At the conclusion of the tour, visitors are invited to experience Remember You Must Die, a curated exhibition from the Memento Mori collection of Ryan Matthew Cohn featuring objects ranging from ancient artifacts to contemporary works and examining the ways past generations confronted mortality through art, ritual, memory, and spirituality.
Ages 12 and up only, please.
