What do you get when you mix a hospital, a murder, and a ghost with a flair for dramatic timing? This week, we’re diving into the spine-tingling, eyebrow-raising, and oddly heartwarming case of Teresita Basa—Chicago’s most talkative ghost.

In 1977, Teresita was found murdered in her apartment. The case went cold... until she allegedly returned from beyond the grave with a hot tip for detectives. Through a coworker’s dreams (or possessions—depends who you ask), Teresita named her killer, detailed the crime, and even pointed to the missing loot. Spoiler: it was exactly where she said it would be.

Join us as we unravel this paranormal whodunit with a wink and a smirk. Was it a ghostly confession or just a very elaborate psychic performance? Either way, it’s one heck of a story—and we promise, no Ouija boards were harmed in the making of this episode.

👻 Murder, mystery, and a medium with a message—this one’s got it all
