SUMMARY:The Dumb Supper – Dinner with the Dead
DESCRIPTION:Sunday, October 27, 2024, 6:30pm Hawthorne Hotel\nJoin the Salem Witches in the Grand Ballroom of the historic Hawthorne Hotel as we honor the dead with a dinner observed in solemn silence. Salem Warlocks Christian Day and Brian Cain invite you to a banquet of sumptuous cuisine where the only sound heard is music chosen in memory of the departed. Bring photos and mementos to summon the souls of your loved ones on the other side as you partake in the most sacred of all the ceremonies of Witchcraft. The Dumb Supper is an ancient tradition where the dead attend the living for a magical night of communion!\nfestivalofthedead.com/dumbsupper.html\nThe evening opens with a blessing where each attendee is guided through the veil between the worlds to the realms of the dead where no one living may speak. Participants place their photos and mementos on an elaborate altar, at which time they are then seated and the feast is served.\nEach year, the spirits have manifested in a variety of ways. Guests have recalled a ghostly touch, the scent of perfume, whispered messages, and even physical manifestations. This is a solemn event where respect for the dead is crucial. By remaining slient, you open your heart and mind to those who have crossed over.\nMenu for the Evening\nIn keeping with tradition, the courses of The Dumb Supper are served backwards and the placement of everything down to the silverware is reversed as a means of weaving participants into the shadowy world of spirit. This menu is subject to change.\nDessert\nApple Blossom with Caramel Sauce\nCoffee\nFreshly Brewed Coffee, Tea or Decaffeinated Coffee\nEntree\nMediterranean-Style Grilled Breast of Chicken featuring Aromatic Herbs, Fennel, Artichokes, Crispy Pancetta and Roasted Red Peppers accompanied by Mashed Baked Sweet Potatoes, with Bacon and Real Maple Syrup and Grilled Asparagus with Gorgonzola\nSoup\nLobster Bisque with Cognac\nSalad\nNathaniel’s Salad featuring Goat Cheese, Candied Walnuts, Dried Cherries, and Maple Vinaigrette\nAppetizer\nWild Mushroom Triangoli pasta in a Wild Mushroom Cream Sauce\nDinner Rolls\nFresh Rolls with Butter\nFood has been offered to the dead throughout history, from prehistoric man through to the Celts, Egyptians, Romans, Japanese, Chinese, and even in the Catholic church. Dining with the dead is an ancient tradition that honors our divine ancestors regardless of culture or creed. Whether you’re a Witch or simply wish to embrace your loved ones on the other side, we invite you to take part in this most sacred event.\nBuy Tickets – festivalofthedead.com/dumbsupper.html\n18+ Event – Ticket Sales are Final\nThe Rules for the Evening\nThis is among the most sacred events that any Witch holds and we take it very seriously. Before you purchase your tickets, you must agree to abide by our rules:\nEvent Begins At 6:30 Sharp. Latecomers Will Not Be Admitted\nThis event is about honoring the dead and inviting them to visit us in spirit form. To arrive late once the ritual of blessing has already commenced is to disrespect both the dead and the living who have come to connect with them. If you do not arrive on time, you will neither be admitted nor refunded so plan accordingly.\nNo One May Speak During The Dinner\nThis event is silent. This silence not only allows people to grieve their dead but creates a portal for the spirits to come through. Those who speak or write notes within the dining area will be silently ushered to leave without refund.\nCell Phones Must Be Turned Off During The Dinner\nThere shall be no phones in use in the dining room. Those texting or using their cell phones will be silently ushered to leave without refund.\nNo Photography During The Dinner\nThere shall be no photos taken in the dining room. Those who do so will be silently ushered to leave without refund.\n
