| From ruthless gangsters to restless mail order kings,
from the Fort Dearborn Massacre to the St. Valentine's
Day Massacre, the phantom remains of the passionate people
and volatile events of Chicago history have made the
Second City second to none in the annals of American
ghostlore. |
| Chicago. A town with a past. A people haunted by its
history in more ways than one. A "windy city" with
tales to tell . . . |
|
| Chicago Haunts |
|
With the first edition of Chicago Haunts,
Bielski captured 160 years of Chicago's haunted history
in the first volume ever devoted to this intriguing
subject. Combining lively storytelling with in-depth
historical research, exclusive interviews, and insights
from parapsychology, she penned a unique and fascinating
exploration of the region's supernatural folklore.
Now in this revised edition, Bielski has expanded
on many of the original stories, presenting dozens of
new firsthand accounts and a compelling new theory about
the real Resurrection Mary. Join her armchair expedition
through haunted cemeteries, forest preserves, homes,
churches, schools, military sites, and restaurants in
search of Chicago's favorite phantoms.
