Celebrate the season with a spooktacularly wicked event at Elm Court while supporting the programs of Chatham Baroque

Kick off the evening by imbibing enchanting potions in the historic Tudor-Gothic mansion festooned with seasonal decor. Then creep on down to the recital hall for spine-tingling music and macabre stories from the 17th and 18th centuries that conjure notions of plague, untimely deaths, ghosts, and more. Close out the evening with killer libations and ghoulishly whimsical fare. Weather permitting, stroll the grounds under starry skies and the glow of the crescent moon.

About Elm Court
Elm Court is a private 40-room residence designed in the Elizabethan-Tudor-Gothic style by Pittsburgh architect, Benno Janssen. The house was commissioned by Benjamin D. Phillips, then president of the T.W. Phillips Gas & Oil Co. and built in 1928-1931 Elm Court was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 and remained in the extended Phillips family until 1983. It was then acquired by philanthropist and collector, Frederick R. Koch who began a 10+ year restoration and expansion of the house. The estate is sited on a hilly 16-acre park designed to make use of the property’s natural contours. A series of interlocking paths, terraces, and fountains overlook the landscape and are dominant design elements.
