The Austin Séance at Vespertine
Saturday, October 12, 2024 | 6:00pm and – 9:00pm with Jake & Albert from The Austin Séance
Price: $42 per seat
Join us for an evening of spirits and mystery as A. Lucio and Jake Cordero of The Austin Séance recreate an old-time, Victorian-era séance at Vespertine! The evening begins with a brief lecture on the history of American séances, which came into fashion during the mid 19th century. Participants the "sitters" will then be led through relaxation exercises to prepare for the ritual, and finally our hosts will employ the tools and practices of both historic and modern séances to attempt contact with the spirits of those in the afterlife!
All are welcome: from skeptics to believers of all things paranormal!
The evening will include complimentary cocktails, and attendees are asked to dress in a way to show reverence for this historic parlor activity (no jeans, flip flops, or casual tees.) Bonus point for Victorian-era inspired garb!
A. Lucio and Jake Cordero have conducted hundreds of sittings throughout Texas at museums, a Victorian mansion and private homes. Together as The Austin Séance, they have been featured in Texas Monthly, the Texas Standard radio program, newspapers and television. Space is limited. Must be 18+. For entertainment purposes only. Tickets are non-refundable but are transferrable.

Spiritualism + Ouija Boards Workshop with Austin Séance
Sunday, October 13, 2024 | 11:00am – 12:45pm with Jake & Albert from The Austin Séance
Price: $45 drop-in or $39 for Vespertine Members
By the late 1960s, sales of the Ouija board rivaled that of America’s best-selling board games. In small towns and large, from Los Angeles to New York, the famous wooden plank and planchette seemingly was everywhere, delivering titillating, subversive entertainment for teen-agers and grad students, housewives and poets. But Ouija was no ordinary toy. Although manufactured and mass-produced, Ouija was steeped in spiritualist traditions dating back at least a century and was associated with esoteric religions, paranormal exploration, art and literature.
Join Albert Lucio and Jake Cordero of The Austin Séance for a hands-on workshop on the use and history of these fascinating divinatory devices. These Sunday morning sessions includes group practice sessions.
Mimosas (alcoholic and N/A) and tea shall be served!
All are welcome!
