Spirit of the Seaport: A Victorian Haunting at South Street Seaport Museum

Join The South Street Seaport Museum, October 20th aboard our favorite ship Wavertree, to relive a time in the late Victorian period when people were drawn towards the paranormal, supernatural, and occult, of which the most popular forms included mesmerism, clairvoyance, thought-reading, and above all, Spiritualism, a belief that the dead communicate with the living.

Enjoy a champagne greeting as you board downtown’s Victorian era cargo sailing vessel and step into another time as magicians, mentalists, and tarot readers peek into the future while conjuring up the past. Listen to a live band perform jazz and ragtime music of the late 1800s; witness an authentic recreation of a Victorian séance in the spooky captain’s saloon; and sip on signature Seaport cocktails, beer, and wine throughout this most devilish affair.
