Candlelight Tours of the Maxey House

The Maxey House will be open late on October 24th from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. for candlelight tours on Saturday night. During the tours, visitors will learn about Victorian death, funeral, and mourning traditions.
Tours will be given every 15 minutes starting at 10 p.m. Admission is $5 per person. If you attend both "A Victorian Halloween at the Maxey House" and a candlelight tour on October 24th, admission is only $7.
