About

Join costumed characters for an evening of trick or treating. Costumed interpreters will hand out treats and historic facts at many of the buildings on site that are not often open to the public. Trick or treating begins at Villa Louis Visitor Center.

The historic Villa Louis mansion is the centerpiece of a grand Victorian estate built by the family of Hercules Dousman, a frontier entrepreneur who amassed a fortune in the fur trade and other frontier investments. The mansion has just undergone a top-to-bottom documentary restoration that has returned the Dousman home to the splendor of its 1890s heyday, using British Arts and Crafts interior designs inspired by famed designer William Morris.
