Dinner with the DepartedJoin us for one night only as we host an exclusive dinner in honor of the departed Woodruff and Fontaine family members while exploring a fascinating and bizarre Victorian mourning custom known as a "BACKWARD SUPPER."
The evening will begin in the club rooms of the mansion’s cellar with a short presentation about the history of the backward supper tradition while enjoying pre-dinner cocktails provided by Old Dominick Distillery before savoring a three-course meal held in true Victorian mourning fashion. While dining in an intimate setting, history will come alive with each course. As a finish to the evening, guests will stroll the darkened rooms and hallways of the mansion on a guided tour, listening as the secrets of those who lived and died within her storied walls are revealed. FIrst-hand accounts of the paranormal occurrences that have become the Woodruff Fontaine House legacy are waiting to be divulged!
