High Desert Horror and the Lava Lake Murders
Public Event
Fri, Oct 25 7:30 PM - 9:00 PM PDT
About this event:
A hundred years ago, there stalked a predator among the primitive young towns on the Oregon High Desert. Hidden behind a veil of legitimacy, he was never caught, never arrested and only slightly suspected of his horrific crimes. And only now, looking through the dusty lens of history, does a grim picture come together... a picture of Oregon's first serial killer.
Clark Week Productions and the Deschutes Historical Museum team up to bring you the story of Ray Van Buren Jackson in honor of the 8 victims who's lives he brought to an untimely end. Written by Bend native, Clint Clark and directed by Raechel Gilland, this show is much more than just a theatrical event... it is an immersive experience complete with an exhibit curated by DHM and songs from the era performed by Janelle Musson.
True crime is alive and well in Oregon's history and it always has been.
Hear the stories; honor the victims; discover the dark truth of the place we call home.
With Sophie Schmidt as The Prosecutor and Zach Ellis as Ray Van Buren Jackson.
