Visitors were invited to immerse themselves in the curious collections of the mysterious “Raven’s Eye Society”, a FICTIONAL club of collectors and explorers who traveled our world and beyond to gather the specimens contained in their magical cabinets of curiosity. The beautiful and interactive cabinets were created by REAL Montana artists and displayed throughout the Story Mansion.
Founded in the late 19th century by Luella Sibylla and her raven companion, Corax, the society was a secret club of naturalists, inventors, explorers, and collectors. They traveled the world—and possibly beyond—gathering unique specimens, magical oddities, and quirky curios. Visitors will be greeted by Corax the raven, and are invited to discover and unscramble hidden letters to discover the society’s motto.
