When the sun sets on Sept. 15, South Florida will come alive as Havana Haunted Mansion launches at Curtiss Mansion, a historical landmark in Miami Springs.
The legendary grounds will be transformed into a haunted realm filled with mind-bending wonders, mesmerizing theatrical performances, spine-chilling cocktails and delectable cuisine that will transport guests back to early 20th Century Havana, Cuba. The adults-only, pop-up Halloween experience will break all the rules of a typical haunted house and Miami will be the first city to witness it for the very first time. Havana Haunted Mansion runs through Oct. 31.
In the early 1900s, Havana was a glittering and energetic city at the height of economic prosperity and New Age elegance. A place for the rich and famous to be seen and celebrities to gather, it became a notorious place for gambling.
An ode to Havana’s old days, Havana Haunted Mansion will take guests on a quest to solve the centennial disappearance of a wealthy Cuban family through a series of ghostly challenges and puzzles. As the story goes, the family came to fame and money by running an illegal casino in Havana before mysteriously vanishing. Decades later, they have returned from the dead to haunt those who dare enter their mansion.
As guests explore the haunted estate, they can engage in immersive activities and challenges posed by ghosts, including fortune-telling with tarot cards and exciting games in the mansion’s “secret” casino. Throughout the night, guests can escape the supernatural spell by indulging in delicious Cuban and Latin dishes and handcrafted cocktails.
Brave individuals also will have the chance to explore hidden mysteries in the Witch’s Kitchen, where magic thrives and spells are cast. Encounters with ghostly characters and well-timed theatrical performances will set an atmosphere of elegant spookiness. The excitement extends to the corridors, where a special bar will offer premium cigars nearby a comfortable lounge area. The haunting experience continues outdoors, with new opportunities for enchanting surprises and captivating discoveries.
One complimentary cocktail is included with the price of admission. Ticket options include:
• Pre-sale General Admission before Aug. 10: $49 (includes admission for one person and one crafted cocktail of choice);
