Sharing Chicago’s Spooky Secrets with WGN Radio

In the WGN Radio Studio

I t’s no surprise that Chicago is home to many spooky secrets. I included several of them in my book Secret Chicago, so I was thrilled when Dean Richards invited me to share a few on his radio show.

The timing couldn’t have been better. I spoke with Dean ahead of Halloween about eerie places like the a mass grave and a collection of creepy medical artifacts. Dean is a member of WGN Radio’s Walk of Fame, so I was honored to be included on his show.  Listen in to hear my spooky recommendations and Dean’s story about an encounter with Chicago’s most famous ghost!
