SOUTH BEND, Ind. - There's three nights of the interactive Mystery at the Mansion event happening at The History Museum in South Bend this October.

The mystery in question is as follows:

In the early morning hours on January 10, 1935, South Bend’s Palace Café was reduced to rubble when three bombs exploded. There were plenty of suspects, but no conclusive evidence.

Local authorities called on a so-called “scientific palmist” named Nellie Simmons Meier to help in the investigation.

Who was guilty, what was their motive, and how did they know about detonating bombs?

To discover the villain, participants will need to listen carefully to clues while walking from room to room in the three-story Oliver Mansion.

Grab your tickets early. Tickets are $25 for general admission and $20 for members.
