Saturday, October 8, 2011
The Lecture: Investigating "Manhattan's Most Haunted House" is being held tonight at 7 p.m. at Merchant's House Museum (29 East Fourth Street, btwn Lafayette & Bowery).
Description: Dan Sturges returns for the latest installment in his popular lecture series at the historic house museum The New York Times called "Manhattan's Most Haunted House." After a brief primer on the history of parapsychology (with a focus on the use of electronic equipment and psychics), Sturges will reveal the most extraordinary aspects of his Merchant's House investigations - providing numerous details never before shared with the public. You'll hear disembodied voices caught on tape, see startling photographic evidence and hear about unexplained incidents experienced by Sturges and others. The evening concludes with a spirited Q&A session. $20, $10 MHM Members. Call 212-777-1089 or visit merchantshouse.org/calendar for reservations.
About the Merchant's House Museum
Celebrating 75 Years as a Museum, 1936-2011
The Merchant's House Museum is New York City's only family home preserved intact - inside and out - from the mid-19th century. Home to a prosperous merchant-class family for almost 100 years, it is complete with the family's original furnishings and personal possessions, offering a rare and intimate glimpse of domestic life from 1835-1865.
"The distinction of the Merchant's House and it is a powerful one is that it is the real thing. One simply walks through the beautiful doorway into another time and place in New York."
The New York Times
