Visiting the home of Charles Dickens.

Our research during the creation of “A Bloody Dickens Christmas” took us to England to visit Charles Dickens nineteenth-century home in London at 48 Doughty St. It was here that he lived and completed three of his novels. The Pickwick Papers (1836), the whole of Oliver Twist (1838) and Nicholas Nickleby(1839)Below: Charles Dickens writing desk. I had to touch it…I just had to.

Below: We discovered the Dickens Tavern at 25 London St…how cool is that?

What could be more fun than to host a Victorian Murder Mystery Dinner, that combines some of Charles Dickens best loved characters; a vile hideous Fagin from “Oliver twist”, Ebenezer Scrooge, a cold-hearted miser from “A Christmas Carol” and, of course Miss Havisham, one of Dickens most memorable female characters; a demented mad woman from the novel “Great Expectations.” Pictured below are our fabulous guests from the “Dickens Murder Mystery Party.”
