An evening of atmospheric storytelling showcasing the darker side of history, including a candle-lit tour through some of Horace Walpole's stranger items.
"Horace Walpole’s long-lost objects are returning to his gothic castle Strawberry Hill House this October. To celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime exhibition, make sure to join for an evening of atmospheric storytelling, as you adventure through the darker side of history.
This candle-lit tour takes you through some of the strange objects in his collection, for one night only. A portrait of 18th-century murderers, the obsidian mirror of an Elizabethan necromancer, a lock of hair from a bloody queen, and many other mysterious artefacts lie in wait. Their dark and eerie stories are eager to be told. Expect a touch of the Gothic and the supernatural as we delve deep into the imaginative psyche of the castle’s owner." - Strawberry Hill House
