'Spirits of Rokeby: Voices From the Summer Land'

Don’t touch that Ouija board! Rokeby Museum’s annual Halloween play returns with a creepy new script, Spirits of Rokeby: Voices From the Summer Land, inspired by Ferrisburgh’s terrifyingly true spiritualist history. Guests begin the spine-tingling experience with a specialty cocktail by Appalachian Gap Distillery and a short talk on Victorian-era mediums before entering the Robinson family farmhouse. Inside, actors in period costume guide visitors through a participatory dramatization of real 19th-century séances, which are documented and preserved in the museum’s archival collection.
