SUMMARY:Dearly Departed
DESCRIPTION:Just in time for the Halloween season\, Dearly Departed is sure to provide you with a unique experience you won’t soon forget. Join us as we explore the funerary\, mourning\, and embalming practices of the late Victorian era as they were observed in Jersey County and the surrounding region. Featuring authentic embalming equipment\, mourning attire\, burial receptacles\, human hair art\, and so much more\, explore the historic Cheney House as it serves as a backdrop of what funerals would have looked like in a time when they were almost exclusively held in the home. Visitors will also see how a home “dressed” for mourning\, learning about why mirrors were covered\, lights were dimmed\, portraits were draped or hidden from view\, and why door badges were hung on entryways. \nTours will be held on October 8\, 15\, 22 and 29\, with tours beginning at 10 am\, 11 am\, Noon\, 1 pm\, and 2 pm. Each tour will last just under one hour. Parking is provided behind the house and it is recommended visitors arrive at least ten minutes prior to the start of their tour. Admission may be paid upon arrival\, cash or check only. It is recommended you call in advance to reserve your spot by contacting Connor Ashlock at 618-946-0767. Weekday evening tours are available by appointment. \nAlso\, self-guided tours will be available on the evening of October 25 from 5-9 pm for $5 during the Jersey County Business Association’s Open Late event\, “Nightmare on State Street.”
