Do you believe death always comes in threes? Do you hold your breath when you drive by a cemetery? Those Victorian superstitions, as well as stories of the Dinehart family, will be illuminated at the second annual Flashlight Tour of the Dinehart Holt House in Slayton.
Explore questions like: Who’s the mystery woman under the stairs? Did anyone die in the house? Will there be ghosts? You decide. Will it be fun? Definitely!
The event is on Saturday, October 12 starting at 6:00 p.m. Tours will leave from the Murray County Museum and walk to the Dinehart House. Be sure to come to the museum early.
