It will be an evening of spirits and mystery as Albert Lucio and Jake Cordero of The Austin Séance recreate an old-time, Victorian-era séance. The evening begins with a brief lecture on the history of American séances, which came into fashion during the mid-19th century. Participants - that is, the "sitters" - will then be led through relaxation exercises to prepare for the ritual, and finally the hosts will employ the tools and practices of both historic and modern séances to attempt contact with the spirits of those in the afterlife! All are welcome: from skeptics to believers of all things paranormal.

The evening will include complimentary cocktails, and attendees are asked to dress in a way to show reverence for this historic parlor activity (no jeans, flip flops, or casual tees.) Bonus point for Victorian-era inspired garb.

Two sitting times available:

Sitting 1: Doors at 6:30pm, doors locked and experience begins at 6:50pm. Runs until approximately 8:30pm.

Sitting 2: Doors at 9:30pm, doors locked and experience begins at 9:50pm. Runs until approximately 11:30pm.

Albert Lucio and Jake Cordero have conducted hundreds of sittings throughout Texas — at museums, a Victorian mansion and private homes. Together as The Austin Séance, they have been featured in Texas Monthly, the Texas Standard radio program, newspapers and television. Space is limited. Must be 18+.

For entertainment purposes only. Tickets are non-refundable.
