About the event
Experience a chilling Victorian tradition at the historic Seth Silver Haines Mansion (McKee Manor) in Waynesville, Ohio. Did you know that ghost stories became a cherished part of Christmas during the Victorian era? Families would gather around the hearth on Christmas Eve, sharing tales of the supernatural, believing the long, dark nights were the perfect backdrop for such stories. Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol revived this tradition, intertwining the festive spirit with eerie encounters. Now, you can experience this tradition firsthand at the Seth Silver Haines Mansion, a Gothic home built in 1854, believed to have been a stop on the Underground Railroad. The original brick was covered with stucco in 1909, and parts of the tunnel used to bring runaway slaves up from the river are still in evidence.
