Need plans this weekend? If you're a fan of Silence of the Lambs, have I got plans for you. This weekend is your chance to climb into the pit with Silence of the Lambs star Brooke Smith.
Wait, who's Brooke Smith?
"It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it is told." You may remember her as Catherine Martin. THAT's Brooke Smith. She plays the Senator's daughter in Silence of the Lambs. She's introduced in the film driving and jammin' to Tom Petty shortly before being tricked and then kidnapped by the infamous serial killer Buffalo Bill. She spends most of the movie in a pit in Buffalo Bill's basement, eventually rescued by Jodie Foster's character Clarice Starling. (Um, spoiler alert.)
Anyway, this weekend she returns to that pit.
The house from the movie belonging to the fictional serial killer Buffalo Bill has been renovated and turned into a tourist attraction to visit, tour, and even stay in. It's in Perryopolis, Pennsylvania, and this weekend only, Silence of the Lambs star Brooke Smith will be appearing there. There are different options for your visit and tour, including a guided tour, a meet and greet with autographs and a special VIP option with an "In The Well" photo op INSIDE the pit with Brooke Smith.

Oh, and did I mention that I visited and stayed at Buffalo Bill's House earlier this year with my friends? Yep. It was very fun. Not for everyone, probably, but we had a great time. Check out the photos from our trip below.
