Ann Arbor

Ann Arbor may not be the biggest city in Michigan, but it is rife with history and ghost stories. Join us for the debut episode of Haunted Mitten, where we explore the spookier side of this busy college town. Below you will find links to our sources that we reference in the podcast, such as books, articles, and videos.

Special thanks to the Ann Arbor District Library and Elizabeth S. for aiding in our research.

A very special shout out to everyone at Crazy Wisdom, the owners Bill and Ruth, managers, current and former employees, and extended community. I (Crysta) have had so many doors open to me thanks to my time at both the Crazy Wisdom store and Crazy Wisdom Community Journal. Crazy Wisdom was the first place to feel like home after I moved to Michigan from California, a difficult time in my life. To those who have never visited Crazy Wisdom, do check it out and support this local bookstore and tea room. Personal plug: you can read my columns and articles on the Journal’s website or pick up a printed copy if you are local to Southeast Michigan.
