History Speaks: Historic Hauntings

This event is no longer on sale.

Sunday October 2

1:00 PM  –  2:00 PM

 

Join us for a thematic tour of the Moses Myers House on the first Sunday of the month. 

 

"Is this house haunted?" is one of the most popular questions at the Myers House. Every old house has mysteries and the Moses Myers House is no exception. During this spooky tour, hear the true tales of Myers family history as we ask, "Do the ghosts of the past still walk these haunted halls?"

 

About the Myers House:

The Moses Myers House is significant as the most intact, best documented, and surviving, known Jewish residence in the United States of any period before 1800. Moses Myers, an early American entrepreneur, built the house to accommodate his growing family. Originally situated in a very rural setting, the federal-style house set a new standard of sophistication for the rapidly expanding City of Norfolk. It was passed down through five generations of the Myers family who lived in the house from 1795–1931.
