The Veiled Prophet organisation has been an institution in St Louis for more than a century. Founded in 1878, it was fashioned after the New Orleans Carnival society the Mystick Krewe of Comus. Thomas Spencer explores the social and cultural functions of the organisation’s annual celebration and traces the shifts that occurred in its importance.
