The experience transports guests to a Victorian-era museum delivery bay in 1880s London where an infamous mummy board has arrived. The show explores the legend of the "Unlucky Mummy," which allegedly brought misfortune to those who encountered it, including accidents, financial ruin, and mysterious deaths. Based on a true story, guests encounter Victorian characters including clairvoyant Madame Helena Blavatsky as they uncover the chilling truth behind the tale of the 'Unlucky Mummy.' The narrative follows four English travellers who brought a cursed Egyptian mummy home, resulting in disaster for successive owners.
