😱 Things are lighting up here! 😱 A couple of paranormal investigators came to our museum ahead of Haunted Superior: Dark History Revealed with the Duluth Paranormal Society. What they found may send a chill down your spine! 🫣

✨ One of the most active items was a diorama made by local doll maker Mary Branca. Hear all about the findings from this investigation, their investigation at the Nemadji Cemetery, historic spiritualist societies, and dark moments in local history.

🎟️ It's not too late to get tickets for the event! You can get them online in advance, or at the door. See you on 10/24! 👻
