dearly departed death and mourning in 19th-century boston photoNichols after Dark makes a ghostly return this Halloween season with an Adults-only event.

Join us after-hours on October 25th and 26th for the unique opportunity to experience the 1804 townhouse in mourning.

Guests will tour the museum’s mourning-clad period rooms and learn how death was very much a part of life in the nineteenth century as well as the grieving practices that took place in the home.

Objects of mourning will be on view, both from the Nichols House Museum’s own collection as well as on loan.

Black clothing admired but not required.

Reception with seasonal beer and treats to follow.
