You've seen the Mansion gussied up for Halloween ... or perhaps you haven't had the pleasure.
Well, this is your chance to Tour the El Mio Mansion and experience all its 1887 Victorian Era splendor.
Sunday, November 30, 2008 (Thanksgiving Weekend), from 10am to 4pm, tours (http://img372.imageshack.us/img372/9357/elmiokd4.jpg) of the historic site* will be available to the general public - - many of them conducted by Yours Truly in inimitable style of informatively fun.
Hear about the Hidden History, Marvel at the Ingeneous Victorian Lifestyle.
Tickets are $5 per person, and are very limited. Please PM me or post in this thread if you are interested ... and I will see to it that you do not lose out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
No more sneaking around the house in secret during the party. You will be allowed to See It All.
Never Been to the Party? Now's Your Big Chance to experience the majesty of EL MIO.
:cheers:

Spaces still available for the fantastic Tour of the incredible El Mio, reputed to be haunted (well, reputed by me, who has been in the house alone at night .... creeeeepy), sight of historic seances (and not just by our mannequin-headed Madame Leota, but the real deal near the turn of the last century), and just a fantastic Phoenix Risen from the Ashes of a tragic fire 6 years ago to miraculously remain among California's glorious Historical Landmarks.
Sunday of Thanksgiving Weekend.
Proceeds benefit the Milford Archeological Research Institute.
And Tickets are a STEAL at Five Bucks a Pop!
What a way to kick off the holiday season, eh? :D

Do we have a particular tour time scheduled?I'll check the tix when I get home, but I thought there were no specific times. At least I don't remember there being one when I bought the tix.

I'd love to do the tour, but I might just have to remain a sneaker-around-at-the-parties gal. ;) Let me check schedules...

Their lifeless bodies left moldering in the basement - definitely not part of the tour, but whose undead corpses may rise again in future Halloweens
or
there seems to have been a falling out....

Mormon Friends + Prop 8 vote x defenisiveness of cult - friendship = current situation.
BUT, the Judge who build the house was a famous occultist who performed real seances in the very room where Madam Leota recently held forth ... and who knows, maybe we shall try to ressurect the spirit of dead friendships this very weekend.
