Macabre Pullman Tour - Oct 26

Almost from its very beginning, Pullman Town grappled with the grim aspects of life.

From fiery train crashes and primitive surgeries to mysterious deaths, murders, and devastating tragedies, join us as we unearth stories from Pullman's history. Once headlining local papers now largely forgotten, the stories we share on this tour are the grim side of the American dream.

This tour is intended for mature audiences. Parental Discretion is advised.

Join us in the Exhibit Hall at 6:45 PM for a pre-tour chance to see the exhibit and hear some additional Pullman stories. We will provide seasonal snacks.
