2023 Spirited Event A Huge Success

Our 2023 Spirited Event at The Muller House Museum was a huge success. We were SOLD OUT. Thank you to everyone who came out and made this event so much fun.

It was great to see such a wonderful turnout. Some of you showed up in amazing, seasonally festive outfits. We absolutley loved that and are considering a costume contest next year.

As you entered the event you were greeted by Spooky Stories from our talented Story Teller Kristen Blunt.

Our lovely witch, Kara enlightened everyone on the origins of Halloween and decorated the MHM beautifully. Candlelight tours were offered throughout the evening by Donna, Linda, Marylynn, & Krystyna.

Our Tarot Card reader, Carla Negri, was on hand in our cozy kitchen to brew up individual card readings. With all the buzz we heard, they were very much spot on.

We had a Magical Apothecary run by Good Witch Gina, where mystical potions were being made for Love, Health, Wealth and whatever your heart desired. Each guest was able to mix just what they needed and took home a custom blessing jar.

There was a great Photo Op area and delicious Hot Cider and Donuts being served up by Mystical Mistress of the Dark Toni.
