Spirits and Spirits

This event offers the chance to explore the Park after dark while entering the otherworldly realm of Victorian Spiritualism along with local tastings from local spirit vendors as well non-alcoholic offerings.

Victorian Spiritualism is the 19th century movement that maintained that the spirits of the dead possessed both the ability and the desire to communicate with the living. After the carnage of Westward Expansion and the Civil War, Americans sought comfort in the idea of an afterlife that allowed them to contact their loved ones beyond the veil — to make amends, to share secrets, and to seek answers to questions left unasked.

The Metaphysical Marketplace will return this year to offer guests a chance to buy unique crystals and curios. Attendees will also revel in a variety of entertainment on the Sundry Stage – new this year’s to Spirits and Spirits – featuring drag bingo, live music, and mystical performances. Guests can also find their way to aura photography, flash tattoos, tarot reading, and tours of the Four Mile House for a Victorian mourning ceremony.
