Tuesday Treasure: All Hallows Eve
We at the Westport Museum are happy to work with our elected officials to help make Westport all that it can be. Knowing our past helps to inform the future. Thanks for stopping by Representative Steinberg!! #westporthistory #westportct #museum #tour #exhibits #06880
The ghostly apparition of Washington Irving, author of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, has been resurrected for a special reading of his frightful tale about the Headless Horseman. Hear his famous story virtually on our exclusive YouTube stream. Link in bio. #westporthistory #spooktober #sleepyhollow #washingtonirving #october #halloween #irving #headlesshorseman #online
Fridays are for fascinating forums! Join us for a live discussion with author Roseanne Montillo, author of The Lady and Her Monsters. Montillo will discuss her book, The Wilderness of Ruin: A Tale of Madness, Fire, and the Hunt for America’s Youngest Serial Killer, delving into the history of crime and mental illness—not only in 1872 Boston, the setting for her book, —but also in connection to Westport’s own past of treating the mentally ill.
Decades before Salem the fear of witches plagued Connecticut. Join us at Westport Museum this Thursday at 7:30pm inside our 7 sided cobblestone barn for a haunting experience in total darkness about the Connecticut witch trials. #salem #witchtrials #witches #darkness #westport #06880 #history #horroredits
