  • Admission: $36 per person
  • Time: 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM

Join investigators from American Hauntings as they explore this ancient method of spirit communication and a way to interpret messages using images and symbols. The word ‘scrying' comes from an Old English word, ‘descry,' meaning ‘to catch sight of,' or ‘to make out dimly.' In the simplest terms, scrying involves peering into a surface, usually one imbued with mystical energy, to see images or symbols that you then interpret meaning from. Traditionally, scrying is depicted as a form of fortune-telling, a way to peer beyond the present into the future to see what lies ahead, or even give insights into a past life. Modern uses of scrying see it as a tool of self-reflection, allowing those who participate to gain a new perspective on someone or something by peering into the depths of the scrying mirror's reflective surface and yourself.
