Join us for the first-ever Murder, Medicine, & Mourning at Wynnewood State Historic Site on October 9th! Visitors will see Wynnewood set for mourning, hear about Victorian mourning customs, and learn about the many untimely deaths of the Wynne family. Follow your guide down to Bledsoe's Lick where you will explore by lantern light and hear about the most infamous murders on the Lick! If you can stomach it - go visit the doctor and learn about the weird and gruesome practices of Victorian-era medicine.

Join us for an evening of ghost stories and spooky tales! Guests will be guided by lantern along a trail from our historic tobacco barn to Cragfont, looming creepily in the distance. Along the way, you will encounter a number of characters from Cragfont's spirited past. Each will have a spine-tingling story to tell! Before and after the tour calm your fears with apple cider by the fire and the soothingly spooky sounds of historic murder ballads performed by the Traveling Caudells. New stories this year!

Travel with us for this week's Taste of History to the Sheldon Peck Homestead. Located in Lombard, IL, this house was the home of American Folk Artist and radical abolitionist Sheldon Peck.

Join us for a tour of Hawthorn Hill, one Saturday a month from April through September. The circa 1805 brick Federal home is preserved as close to its original state as possible and is rarely open for tours. Original stenciling, paint, and plaster make you feel as though you've entered a time capsule of 19th century Middle Tennessee history. Tours are limited and only offered one Saturday a month - don't miss out on this unique experience!
