Full description

Explore the mystical and mysterious side of this ancient Indian trail turned spectral hotspot.

Sample Itinerary:

Archer Woods Cemetery: Who is the "Weeping Lady of Archer Woods Cemetery"? Some hear a woman crying and some see a strange mist in this cemetery.
Sacred Heart Cemetery: Who is the "Grey Haired Baby" that is rumored to haunt the woods near the cemetery? Is it a feral man running about or something weirder, like a werewolf?
St. James at Sag Bridge Cemetery: Even the Chicago Tribune talked about the "phantom manifestations" at this location to make it one of the city's most haunted sites. Known as "Monk's Castle" to the locals, learn about the ghost stories, but also the history which traces back to Father Marquette visiting the site all the way back in 1673.
Maple Lake: Maple Lake is known for will-o’-the-wisps, mysterious lights that dance above the water. Original Chicago tour guide Richard Crowe even told a story of two Chicago police officers that came on a tour, saw the strange red light, and were so freaked out they prepared to shoot their service revolvers at it until he talked them down!
Fairmount Hills Cemetery: What is that mysterious music coming from the clock tower of this cemetery? What else is coming from beyond the grave?
Willowbrook Ballroom Site: The famous Willowbrook Ballroom was the spot that many of Resurrection Mary's dance partners would be shaking a leg with her all night, only to drive her back to discover her missing when they pass the cemetery later on. While the ballroom itself burnt down in 2016, who knows what ghostly energies still inhabit this site of parties and banquets for eight decades.
Chet's Melody Lounge: At Chet's, Resurrection Mary is a fact of life, as real as the beer in your glass. It's the place where many of the men who drove Mary home, only to have her disappear in their car or to get out at the cemetery and run inside, immediately came to report their sighting.
The Irish Legend: Gangsters, girls, ghosts, and Irish beer? Sounds like the perfect combination to us!
Resurrection Cemetery: See the cemetery gates where Mary is said to disappear, along with the pried open bars exactly at the spot where a driver saw a young woman standing and trying to escape.
