Victorian Death Parlour Tea Party
Spirit Photography, Mourning Etiquette & the Art of Remembering the Dead

The Victorians were obsessed with death. And honestly… they were onto something.

They photographed their dead.
They wore mourning clothes for years.
They turned loved ones’ hair into jewellery.

They covered mirrors, feared being buried alive, and held séances to communicate with the other side.

And then there were the Memento Mori — beautiful, sometimes macabre reminders that life is fleeting.

🖤 Join us once again for an entertaining, deliciously dark evening exploring the extraordinary Victorian relationship with death — and what it might teach us about living.

Hosted by local death doula Jennifer Kable Cullinane, your evening includes:

🕯️ A fascinating one-hour Victorian parlour talk

🫖 A Victorian-inspired high tea

💀 A hands-on activity creating your very own Memento Mori keepsake

Saturday, November 7 | 6–9 PM

📍 Emma’s Tea Spot
4337 Harford Road, Baltimore, MD 21214

RSVP online - link in bio under events — spaces are limited!

Come for the tea. Stay for the morbid curiosity.

After all, nobody did death quite like the Victorians. 🖤

🍂 NO PLANS TODAY? Scones are hot and it’s a beautiful autumnal day! 🍂

It’s Sunday. It’s October. And apparently it’s National Cinnamon Roll Day, which feels like a perfectly reasonable excuse to abandon whatever you were supposed to be doing and come to the tea room. ☕️

We don’t have cinnamon rolls 😂 — but we do got tables available TODAY!

Come in for lunch, tea, cake, a hot scone, or just grab an autumn drink, wander through the Secret Garden, check out the shops and enjoy Lauraville.

💙 BLUE ME AWAY
Our gorgeous blue matcha latte with oat milk & raspberry syrup.

🎃 FOLLOW YOUR GUT
Our ridiculously cozy pumpkin spice hot chocolate.

We use Apothékary™️ powders to give these beauties an adaptogenic boost — so you’re getting a little extra goodness along with a delicious bevvy to take on a stroll through Friends of Herring Run Parks . 🍂🌿

Bring your mum. Bring your kids. Bring a friend. Bring a book and sit by yourself. You do not need a special occasion to come to the tea room.

And if you fancy making a proper afternoon of it, ask us about High Tea. 👑🫖

We have tables open for you TODAY.

Thank you to everyone who came out for our First Friday celebration! 🇬🇧🎤❤️

We had the front door wide open, and it was so encouraging to see people just walking the strip, hearing the music and jumping in to sing a track or two.

Remember — you don’t have to spend all night with us. Just come out, wander the neighborhood, lift up your voice and revive your spirit by getting a little Church in the Hood. 🎶

Run down to Koco's Pub for a $5 margarita. Pop up to Maggie's Farm for their delicious First Friday rib plate. Stop in at Emma’s Tea Spot and sing your heart out. Hit Found Studio | Shop - Kacey Stafford (she/her) for an art show! Whatever you do - remember;

We do this for YOU. For the community. For the neighborhood.

So get out on the street. Hug a neighbor. Support a local business. Sing badly. Sing brilliantly. Just show up and be part of it.

Let’s celebrate Lauraville & Hamilton together.

See you next First Friday! 🎤✨

BREATHE • RELEASE • RECEIVE 🌙

Join us Thursday, October 22nd for an evening of breath, vibration, rest and reconnection.

Under a Waxing Gibbous Moon in Pisces, we’re gathering as the lunar light moves toward fullness — a beautiful moment for softening the nervous system, listening inward and making space for what is ready to emerge.

With the Sun completing its journey through Libra, the evening carries themes of balance, harmony and restoration, while dreamy Pisces invites us out of the thinking mind and back into breath, body, sound and intuition. 🌙♓️✨

We’ll begin with a 90-minute guided Breathwork & Sound Bath, then gently return to earth over a traditional Cream Tea at Emma’s Tea Spot.

Come exactly as you are.
Bring a mat. Bring water. Bring a blanket. Bring something you’d like to release — and something you’d like to call toward fullness. Ecstatic breathing, screaming and laughing included.

Thursday, October 22, 2026
7–9pm | $45
📍 Emma’s Tea Spot — 4337 Harford Road
🫖 Cream Tea included
✨ Book through our website

🌔 Under a waxing Pisces Moon, we breathe what has been held and make room for what wants to become. Every two weeks at Emma’s Tea Spot

Victorian Death Culture: Spirit Photography, Mourning Etiquette & the Art of Remembering the Dead

The Victorians were obsessed with death. And honestly…they were onto something. This Halloween season, step into the Victorian parlor and discover a world where death was public, ritualized, beautifully memorialized—and impossible to ignore.

They photographed their dead.
They wore mourning clothes for years.
They turned a loved one’s hair into jewelry.

They covered the mirrors.
They feared being buried alive.
They held séances to speak with the dead.

And then there were the Memento Mori—objects created to remind us of one unavoidable truth: we are all going to die.

Join a local death doula for an entertaining and thought-provoking Victorian Parlor Talk exploring the era’s extraordinary relationship with death—and what their customs might have to teach us about our own relationship with mortality today. Your evening includes a one-hour talk, Victorian-inspired high tea, and a hands-on activity where you’ll create your own Memento Mori.

Led by a local death doula, Jennifer Kable Cullinane
410-805-3165
cardinallightdoulaservices.com; this first Victorian Parlor Talk invites the death curious to step beyond the usual Halloween ghosts and ghouls and explore something much more intriguing: our human fascination with death—and what we can learn from those who came before us.

Saturday, October 24 | 6:00–9:00 PM
$40

Come curious. Stay for the tea. Leave thinking differently about death.
