Step into one of Ogdensburg's most storied and atmospheric historic homes for an unforgettable evening that blends history, mystery, and deep rest.

Built in 1884 as the rectory for the original St. Mary's Cathedral and later home to a community of religious sisters, The Claire House has witnessed more than a century of lives, devotion, hospitality, and countless stories. Today, this beautifully restored home welcomes guests as a charming bed and breakfast and has become known for the many experiences and unexplained moments shared by visitors over the years.

Your evening begins with a guided ghost tour, where you'll explore the home's fascinating history and hear the stories that have made The Claire House one of the North Country's most intriguing destinations.

As the tour concludes, you'll leave the stories behind and transition into a quieter experience. Through a guided Yoga Nidra—often called yogic sleep—and a live sound bath, you'll be invited to settle your nervous system, release tension, and experience deep rest. Surrounded by the soothing vibrations of crystal singing bowls, Tibetan bowls, shamanic drum, wave drum, cosmic chimes, and other thoughtfully chosen instruments, you'll be guided from curiosity into calm.

Whether you're drawn by the history, the mystery, or simply the opportunity to slow down, this evening offers a unique blend of exploration, reflection, and restoration.

Your Evening Includes

  • Guided Ghost Tour & History of The Claire House

  • Guided Yoga Nidra (deep relaxation meditation)

  • Live Sound Bath featuring crystal singing bowls, Tibetan bowls, shamanic drum, wave drum, cosmic chimes, and other atmospheric instruments

  • Eye pillow provided for your comfort

  • A commemorative keepsake to take home

Arrival

Please plan to arrive 10 minutes early so we can begin the ghost tour promptly at 6:00 PM.

What to Bring

  • A blanket to cover yourself during Yoga Nidra and the sound bath, as body temperature naturally cools during deep relaxation.

  • Comfortable clothing.

  • An open mind and a willingness to simply rest.

Yoga Nidra and the sound bath are experienced lying down, though seating will be available for anyone who prefers to remain seated.

Attendance is limited to 12 guests to preserve the intimate, peaceful nature of the experience.
