S2 E13: Our first story takes us to Chicago. The Chicago City Cemetery – now known as Lincoln Park, was said to have brought in 20,000 burials at its peak. Famed parapsychologist Ursula Bielski once called the area, “Without a doubt the most active site I’ve investigated.” 

For our second story, we travel 45 mins SW to Joliet, IL. Often referred to as the “Jewel of Joliet,” and widely considered to be one of the ten most beautiful theaters in the nation, the Rialto Square Theater has not only become known for continuing to host hundreds of patrons, but it’s also come to be recognized as the home to a few resident spirits. 

Stories: Lincoln Park, Chicago, IL & Rialto Square Theatre, Joliet IL.
