Details

As darkness falls, dare to step into the shadowy realm of The 1879 Avery House. By flickering candlelight, brave souls will uncover Halloween's eerie origins and the secrets behind Victorian supernatural obsessions.

Discover why bobbing for apples was a Victorian-era tradition, and unearth long-forgotten rituals. Our ghostly guides will lead you through candlelit corridors, sharing Halloween tales and facts that will stimulate your mind and send a chill down your spine.

Choose your fate by booking a tour reservation for either Thursday, October 29th or Friday, October 30th. Tours begin every half hour starting at 5:00 pm. The last tour begins at 8:00 pm. Each tour lasts about 45 minutes, if you dare to stay that long!

To calm your nerves, you'll be greeted with a goblet of hot apple cider and fall-themed treats. But beware – once you've tasted the mysteries of a Victorian Halloween, you may never see the night the same way again!
