Despre activitate
Most Lincoln assassination tours focus on the events of April 14, 1865 and the death of President
Lincoln. This experience follows the investigation that came afterward. Through a carefully
structured narrative, guests follow the evidence surrounding John Surratt—the only major
conspirator who escaped immediate capture following Lincoln’s assassination. The tour combines
crime scene reconstruction, witness testimony, political intrigue, Confederate espionage, and an
international manhunt to create an immersive historical experience. The storytelling style is inspired
by investigative documentaries and true-crime narratives rather than traditional historical lectures.
Guests are not asked to debate the evidence but are encouraged to think like investigators as the
story unfolds.
