Holiday Lights : Lantern Light Tours in Connecticut





For the 40th Anniversary of the Museum’s Lantern Light Tours, tour-goers will immediately recognize the influences of that most Victorian of Christmas tales, Charles Dickens’s 1843 A Christmas Carol. They are asked by Mallory’s Ghost to help save his partner, Mr. Blackburn, from his miserable, loveless life, which will in turn save Greenmanville from becoming an expanse of deserted shipyards. Even though the tour guide is excited – and determined! – to live out the plot of Dickens’s story step by faithful step, and learns that it is love that transcends time and place which will save both Christmas and 1876 Greenmanville.
