Beginning on September 16th 2022 residents of the DFW area will be invited to enter a magical and mystical manor for a 2- hour immersive cocktail experience. I’ll be heading out to Alexander Mansion in Dallas, Texas with my bestie partner in crime and fellow GT editor Laura Burke to discover what secrets the mansion holds. We love spooky season, and themed events are right up our alley.
As per the description we were given ahead of the event:
Eminent psychiatrist and hypnotist, Doctor Grigor Volkov, invites his recently orphaned nieces and nephews to live with him at Volkov Manor, a former halfway house for his disturbed patients. Once there, the Vasiliev children discover the spirits of those former patients wandering the halls, but not to frighten them; rather, they seem intent on protecting the children from a malicious entity known only as The Midnight Man.
The characters and themes of House of Spirits: Volkov Manor are loosely based on real life inspirations, including the final days of Grigori Rasputin, the ancient god Veles and other Slavic folktales throughout the centuries.
Prepare yourself for a night full of mystery and magic, paired perfectly with cocktails. This Halloween spectacle will take place within an eerie, elegantly macabre mansion. This 2-hour immersive cocktail experience weaves a disquieting and interactive storyline certain to leave guests delightfully chilled. Guests are highly encouraged to dress up for the soirée in any time period specific fashion, costume or elegant dress.
At House of Spirits, you’ll have the chance to freely roam the eerie residence, invoke a giant ouija board and meet mystical tarot readers. Don’t miss this peculiar and awe-inspiring curiosity-filled occasion. House of Spirits is how adults do Halloween: at the most exclusive cocktail party in town for the season.
Laura and I never miss an opportunity to dress up in theme, especially when it involves the horror genre, so we are thrilled to be invited to the party!
Tickets range from $70 – $90 with three ticketing options. You can find all the information on their website. Stay tuned for the full review here on Gaming Trend!
