With its ornate detailing, extravagant roofline and storied past, Barnaby’s Castle is a hallmark of Victorian design and one of the great cornerstones of Providence’s Westend. Doors Open RI partnered with the building on an open house style murder mystery event. Half of our ticket sales, $2,330, were donated to the castle’s ongoing restoration efforts. We welcomed 300+ people to help solve the mystery of who gifted Mrs. Josephine Barnaby a bottle of poisoned whiskey leading to her unfortunate demise. Everyone enjoyed a whiskey tasting as they immersed themselves in the building’s storied past.
