Sudley after dark

When the lights go off in any large and old house the rooms go quiet, and an oppressive stillness descends in the darkness. It is then, and only then, as the moon rises in the sky that the spirits of the dead return to tell their stories.

In this interactive tour of Sudley House they will move through the dark period rooms of the house, long after it has been shut up to most visitors. As the house begins to creak and settle characters from the past may just appear to spin a tale so horrible and terrifying Hallowe’en must be approaching.

Tours of the darkened house are suitable for older audiences only and numbers will be strictly limited. Tours last approximately 50 minutes to an hour and begin at 6pm, 7.30pm, and 9pm.

Young Voices Big Ideas

In a unique partnership with the Children Growing up in Liverpool (C-GULL) study, Young Voices, Big Ideas brings together children and young people’s ideas on changes they would like for a happier and healthier future. The installation showcases how this ground-breaking research can help us answer children’s questions and improve children’s health and wellbeing.

The Young Voices, Big Ideas installation shares children’s ideas through their drawings and voices, and amplifies the change they are advocating for. It explains how the C-GULL study can help answer children’s questions and improve their health and wellbeing. They hope you enjoy it!

Whilst visiting the installation you can see children’s drawings and hear their ideas about the changes they would like to see to have a happier and healthier future. You can read their co-created children’s books about what it is like to grow up and live in Liverpool, and colour in some of the illustrations from the book.

They are proud to partner with Young Voices, Big Ideas and C-Gull at the Museum of Liverpool. C-Gull is one of the largest family studies ever to take place in the UK. It brings together a huge range of experts from the University of Liverpool and Liverpool Women’s Hospital in a study which involves the recruitment of 10,000 babies! Ultimately, the goal is to create a healthier and more equitable future for children in Liverpool by promoting health and well-being, reducing health disparities, and supporting families in their efforts to help their children thrive.

Find out more at the Museum of Liverpool or by visiting the C-GULL website.

Family memory stroll

Family memory strolls are guided visits in the Museum of Liverpool, which connect people through conversations about Liverpool’s past.

On a memory stroll you can explore Liverpool icons like the Overhead Railway, known as the dockers’ umbrella, Blackie the rocking horse, or the Colomendy totem pole. Bring a friend or loved one to share memories with, and create some new ones together.

Each stroll is facilitated by a friendly member of our House of Memories team but led by the conversations and stories shared within the group. As a dementia-friendly session these strolls will use the displays within the Museum of Liverpool to help you bring memories of Liverpool to life.

Their family memory strolls last about one hour and can accommodate up to 20 people. For groups larger than 4 people please email learning@liverpoolmuseums.org.uk to book a private date with their team.

The Museum of Liverpool is fully accessible and we welcome visitors who use wheelchairs or other mobility aids to join their memory strolls. Please visit their access page for further information to help prepare for your visit.

Murder Mystery: The Body Snatchers Hal...

DBY Interactive present the ultimate murder mystery themed Halloween special.

An October morning in 1826, along George’s Docks, Liverpool. A cargo ship due to set sail for Scotland, a young sailor notices a foul odour seeping from one of the shipment barrels. The seaman was used to the stench of fish and brine, but this was different… this made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. A smell so vile, he gagged as they prised open the barrels to reveal bodies, stripped naked, pickled in brine and salted in an attempt to preserve them. Men, women and children.

Jonathan hasn’t heard from his cousin since her harrowing letter. He has read the papers, the reports of notorious Liverpool body snatchers stealing from shallow graves; that some bodies didn’t even make it to the cemetery before they were sold to the highest bidder to be used in godless experimentation. He fears the worse, but there is only one way to find out the truth.

Join him as he retraces his cousins steps to discover what happened to her, but be warned, some people want to keep the truth buried, and they will do anything to stop it being exposed… even kill.

Join DBY interactive in this interactive theatrical Halloween Special Murder Mystery Show at the Everyman. A night of secrets, deceit, missing bodies and murder. A Halloween Special not to be missed.

Theme : crime solving fictional story based on the dark history of the body snatchers of Liverpool linked to Hope Street and the Everyman. Period drama. Puzzle solving. Crime solving. Mature drama. Not for the faint hearted.
