Description

Join the Gorgas House from October 8-28, 2026 for our Halloween exhibit, “Callings the Spirits In: Spiritualism in America.” Highlighting tools of the trade and celebrities who worked to both promote and debunk the practice, learn about how mass casualties on both sides of the Civil War led to a new religious movement. Guests can also learn about the ghosts of the Gorgas family who still walk the halls.
