Dennison Depot will offer ghost storytelling event
The Dennison Depot will offer a supernatural storytelling experience from Executive Director Wendy Zucal.
The Dennison Depot will offer a supernatural storytelling experience from Executive Director Wendy Zucal on Thursday, Oct. 24 at 7 p.m. in the Streetside Center across from the depot.
Speaking from her experience of over three decades of working at the depot and with the historic artifacts, she will recount stories shared from depot visitors, employees and her personal encounters. After the program guests will be invited inside the depot for an after-hours walkthrough of the museum. Refreshments will be served.
“We are constantly being asked about our ghosts by people who are interested to hear the stories, and we are hesitant to share them or have ghost hunting events because it regularly makes the ghosts more active,” Zucal said. “For this reason we no longer have professional ghost hunters in the depot. This event will be one of our rare moments where we tell our ghost stories and invite visitors into the building.”
The Dennison Depot, built in 1873, is 151 years old and has survived a great deal of history: two world wars, the industrial revolution, the Great Depression, the railroad strike, and major cultural and social changes that impacted the country. Zucal will share stories and experiences from ghosts and professional ghost hunters who conducted paranormal investigations at the depot.
This event is for guests age 12 and older. Tickets can be purchased for $20 at dennisondepot.eventbrite.com. Museum members are able to get tickets for a discounted rate of $15. Contact the depot for a member code for the discount. Tickets will not be available at the door.
The Streetside Center is located at 415 Center St. in Dennison.
