Spiritualists and Suffragettes Trolley Tour

The Victorians were obsessed with the dead, and we mean OBSESSED! Unbeknownst to many, the spiritualists who enabled loved ones to commune with their dearly departed also had a hand in the push for women’s equality. This trolley tour sheds light on the evolution and legacy of Spiritualism, and how it led to the growth of the Women’s Rights Movement. This tour is led by Andrea Janes, owner and founder of Boroughs of the Dead.

Price: $30, and $25 for members
