Thursday, March 6th at 8pm and 10pm
Join us for a performance for the ghost of António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro (1848 – 1920) — botanist, bibliophile, alchemist, collector, and general enthusiast of nature and the mysteries of the universe, with music in three parts with three voices: Ezra Buchla, Brian Crabtree, and Kelli Cain. EVENT : A Thesaurus of Horrors: A History of the Fear of Premature Burial
Friday, March 7th at 8pm
Librarian Megan Rosenbloom, director of Death Salon, takes you on an exploration of the Victorian obsession with premature burial based on books from the era, and how those hilariously lurid books inspired the works of Edgar Allan Poe. Megan will delve into some of the purported tales of live burial, the entrepreneurs who made safety coffins, the societies formed to protect against this primal fear, and how this fear trickles down into our modern culture.
