Experience The Place
An important part of what we do centers around cultivating the desires of our community. We do this by entertaining through telling stories, hosting events, offering physical products, facilitating social connections, or enabling the making of donations.

​We are currently in the process of producing a multi-season film series from the adventures and history of Benjamin and Mortimer Blackburn. As soon as these movies are available, we will let you know here. They will be made accessible in part through this platform, as well as a streaming service near you.

​
Attend An Event
We offer a variety of events and experiences throughout the year. Our goal is to provide you with catered experiences that allow you to feel a part of a magical place and time by immersing you in the make-believe. We offer everything from one man character interactions to full improvisational murder mysteries for our visitors.
​
But our favorite is our trick-or-treating haunted house where trick-or-treaters and their parents are invited to take a tour and meet the current dark residents.
​
The next favorite event is our twenty person murder mystery where you and nineteen of your closest friends get to dress up in character and play improv one of the stories of the Blackburn brothers over dinner. The house is your stage.
​
We offer magical classes that allow students to make potions, learn to divine the future, write with a real quill and ink, or design a custom wand.
​
And sometimes all we do is simply host firesides in the firepit of the yard.
​
No matter the occasion, we are glad for the time you devote to playing here at the Blackburn Manor!

Below is a comprehensive listing of the events we offer.

Take a Piece of the Story Home
While everyone may aspire to living in a haunted boarding house, we know not everyone will fit! With that in mind, we keep a healthy stock of brooms, wands, quills, ink, and potion bottles onhand for any needy witch or wizard who wishes to transform their personal space to a more witchy vibe.
​
We also have a store of resources for purchase to help you internalize what it is we do here. We keep a healthy store of books on the shelves and gourmet soda in the icebox to satiate any summer cravings.We take pride in making just about everything by hand ourselves, and are always happy to help you in your shopping needs.

Connect to Our Community
One of our priorities is to help members of our community to remain or become connected. Life provides all sorts of twists and turns that can be easier to handle when you have others you can rely on or ask a favor of. With that in mind, we host a private facebook group called Master Mortimer's Magical Marketplace where you can inquire after any personal needs, whether they be creative, human resources, looking for participants for an event, costume ideas, or seeking or offering tools to students enrolled in our school.
