The Gibson House Museum, a 19th century rowhouse and time-capsule of Victorian Boston, provides the authentic ambiance of the Victorian era to embark on a mesmerizing journey into the realm of the supernatural and discover the compelling story of Mina Crandon, renowned as "Margery the Medium," whose séances in early 20th century Boston captivated audiences and sparked controversial and heated debates about the existence of paranormal abilities.
Your hour-long journey will take you into the world of Harry Houdini, the legendary escape artist and illusionist who dedicated his life to exposing fraudulent mediums, and the dual persona of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, acclaimed author of Sherlock Holmes and a staunch advocate for spiritualism.
As you tour the Gibson House*, you’ll experience the rituals and practices that intrigued and confounded Crandon, Houdini, and Conan Doyle and unravel the intertwined lives and beliefs of three extraordinary individuals.
Reserve your place now for an unforgettable journey into the Victorian unknown!
*The tour involves periods of standing and climbing and descending stairs.
