Summary

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!

Chicago may be a city full of life, but it’s also bursting with the paranormal. In this episode, we dive into some of the Windy City’s most chilling hauntings, including eerie tales from the Museum of Science and Industry and the infamous Bachelors Grove Cemetery. We also explore whether Chicago’s unique geography—its swamps, waterways, and violent history—might be fueling its supernatural side. Then, we travel south to Springfield, Illinois, to visit the lingering spirit of Abraham Lincoln and the strange stories surrounding his hometown. From the urban shadows to presidential phantoms, this episode has ghost stories you won't forget. This is Part Two of our conversation.
