Step back in time to where it can only be described as being, HISTORICALLY HYSTERICAL where you will be part of the wake for the dearly departed Silas that is an over the top and out right crazy fun involving the superstitions about ghosts during the 19th Century Victorian era. You will participate in the WAKE, provide a testimony to the deceased, learn about the customs, oddities, and superstitions about ghosts and see authentic items from the Victorian era. To die unprepared, and not be mourned properly, was the greatest of tragedies and this is where you come in by becoming professional mourners called, “MUTES”that were used in the funeral procession so you had better PRACTICE UP ON YOUR WAILING AND CRYING as the louder and the more emotional it is, the greater honor is bestowed upon Silas, that is, if you are able to keep a straight face.
