We had such a great time on the Resurrection Mary tour! If you enjoy local history, ghost stories, and all the quirky legends that make Chicagoland so interesting, this is a fun way to spend an afternoon in October! I especially appreciated the shuttle from stop to stop, making the whole experience easy and convenient. The stops at the local taverns were a fun bonus, too! We had time to grab a drink and a bite to eat, and chat with others in the group. If you’re fascinated by the haunted lore surrounding Archer Avenue, I’d definitely recommend this tour and our great tour guide Diane!
