The Inn Has a Secret… Will You Solve It?

When the sun goes down, the doors of Compass Inn Museum open to a very different kind of history.

On Saturday, September 26, from 6 PM to midnight, step into our candlelit 19th-century stagecoach inn and become part of a mystery. 🕯️

Every room. Every artifact. Every shadow. May hold a clue.

Gather your friends, family, or fellow investigators and follow the evidence as you explore the historic inn and outbuildings, solve period mysteries, and piece together the story before the night is over.

🕯️ Candlelit exploration
🔎 Interactive clues & historical quests
🧩 Mysteries to solve
🍪 Refreshments in the Cookhouse
🌙 A late-night revelation at the Inn
