  • Your tour will begin at The Chicago Theatre where you will hear about the tragedy of how 602 people lost their lives at the Iroquois Theatre in 1903. Next, you will head over to the James M. Nederlander Theatre where the story of the tragedy of the Iroquois Theatre will be continued, and you'll hear about the paranormal activity in the Alley of Death. You will then head over to the Chicago Cultural Center where you will discuss the second librarian in the history of Chicago's public library system, Frederick H. Hild, and how his spirit lurks behind in the very building in which he was the first librarian. You will continue on to Millennium Park where you will discuss Lincoln Parch which was once a burial ground. Then you will stop by The Art Institute of Chicago where you will discuss how some of the more than 300,000 items are haunted. You will proceed to The Congress Plaza Hotel is one of the most haunted hotels in the country. Here you'll hear about the tragedies that made this a paranormal hot spot and how it inspired Stephen King to write a short story. Your tour will end at Exchequer Restaurant & Pub where you will hear the story of a figure that haunts not just one place, but the entirety of Chicago, the Ghost of Al Capone.
