They are dedicated to preserving the beautiful Parsonsfield Seminary campus (Parsonsfield Maine), including a 42 room Victorian mansion, A school with a bell tower, and the beautiful grounds. The Haunting is one of their major fund raisers, with a different theme each year. We turn the entire mansion into a Haunted House. This year it is called The Dead & Breakfast! Many years I can be found playing (piano and/or organ) at the event. I played 10/22 and 10/23 2021 and will be playing again Friday the 29th. Parsonsfield Seminary, 504 North Road, Parsonsfield Maine. This is what I look like in case you are thinking of experiencing the Haunting and want to say hi... - Frank B.

Probably a cliché, but Toccata & Fugue in D minor on the organ would spring to mind. I improvise a lot, in minor keys. I also play the Moonlight Sonata (1st movement) but my own arrangement (think Beethoven meets Keith Emerson (ELP) ) But yes, I do play the opening measures of the D minor when people are leaving my area and entering the Dead Dining Room, for their "last meal" :-) - Frank B.
