Victorian Horrors at the Molly Brown House Museum
b'Victorian Horrors is environmental theater set within Denver\\u2019s most historic \\u2013 and some say, most haunted \\u2013 Capitol Hill mansion. Slink from room to room to hear each author\\u2019s horrifying tale, portrayed by acclaimed local actors David and Julia Payne, Jim Hunt, Trina Magness, Josh Hartwell, Rachel Turner, and John Wittbrodt. To honor Mrs. Brown\\u2019s Irish heritage, this year\\u2019s tales are by Irish writers or set in the old country\\u2019s bogs and crumbling country houses, including such terrifying tales as \\u201cThe Tell-Tale Heart,\\u201d \\u201cThe Picture of Dorian Gray,\\u201d and \\u201cThe Strange Voice\\u201d by Dora Sigerson Shorter.
The stage for this spine-tingling event is the Molly Brown House Museum, home to Denver\\u2019s notable Titanic disaster survivor, Margaret Tobin Brown. To heighten the spook factor, the Museum is partnering with Denver\\u2019s authentic oddities dealers, The Learned Lemur and Atomic Folk Art, to create a Victorian cabinet of curiosities for your viewing pleasure, replete with creepy taxidermy, spiny specimens, and rattling bones!
