The History Museum presents ‘Mystery at the Mansion’ virtual program

SOUTH BEND, Ind. – The History Museum will present its annual “Mystery at the Mansion” program virtually for the first time this year.  

This year’s theme, “Mystery at the Mansion: Dillinger’s Last Caper” is based on the true story of John Dillinger’s robbery of Merchants National Bank in South Bend in 1934.

Participants will use their investigative skills to find out who Dillinger’s secret accomplice was in the heist.

Whoever solves the case will be entered in a chance to win the grand prize: a curator-led, private behind-the-scenes virtual tour of the Oliver Mansion.

This is the first time the program will be held virtually since it began in 2007.

A link to participate will be sent out at 7 p.m. on Feb. 26 and players will have until midnight on March 1 to make their guesses.

Tickets can be purchased here for $10/general or $8/members until 4 p.m. on Feb. 26.
