Kremsernacht: A Hands-On Mystery Tour

“Kremsernacht” is a hands–on mystery tour similar to an escape room experience. It will require teamwork and problem solving while exploring the spectral story of Andreas Kremser, Old Salem’s “Little Red Man.” The tour will be guided through the lower level of the Single Brother’s House, visiting areas that Kremser is known to haunt. Visitors will check-in upstairs at the Single Brother’s Workshop and conclude in the lower kitchen of the Single Brother’s Workshop.

Visitors have come for a usual Halloween tour focusing on the story of Kremser, the little red man of Old Salem. We will tell his story as well as the stories of staff members who have interacted with him. The highlight of the tour will be drawing lots from the lot bowl to determine if the story is fact or fiction. But there is one problem. Within the tour, Kremser has buried his own activities. He has a bone to pick with the non-believing tour guide and with the lot system and now he is on a mission to make his mischief as famous as the museum. To get back at them, he has hidden the lot bowl and now it is up to the tour group to solve his riddles, find the lot and return it to the Workshop before the next tour begins and one of the town’s most meaningful artifacts is lost forever.
